Which car is faster: the Z06 or the 911 turbo. I think that the Z06 would win becaus it is ~250 pounds lighter ad only 10 less horsepower.

911 Turbo- especially if it was a drag-race- the All Wheel Drive would be of a massive advantage here- AND it runs the 1/4 in 11.9 seconds- which is of course faster than the Vette. same old story on the track as well.

Not the same old story on a track...the 2004 Z06 laps the Nordschleife in 7min 56sec, the exact same time as the 911 Turbo (and the 911 GT3, btw).:iceslolan

Yea I think in one of the last Supertuner challenge's done by Car and Driver...the ZO6 did better on the road course than the 911 Turbo...they were all very impressed

OF course I forgot about the improved 2k4 model :redface: I'd quite like to see how that one does around the track- the current ZO6 leaves many underwhelmed

ZO6

405HP ($50k)
0-60 in 4.0 seconds
Quarter in 12.4 @ 116
Lateral G's 1.00

911 Turbo ($110k)
415HP
0-60 in 3.9 seconds
Quarter in 12.3 @ 115
Lateral G's 0.97

So for about half the price of a 911 Turbo...you can get 911 speed...not what would I do w/the money saved...hmm...get a new interior! LOL
