5 Reasons Why Corvettes are Always Going to be Better than 911s
If you own a Z06, you’re among friends here. If you own a 911 you might have some regrets.By Christopher Hurst - June 22, 2018

So now we're being trolled by an Internet Brands employee? Way to keep it classy Mr. content editor.

The aftermarket support from the many Manufactures and venders right here on our own forum is the key.
You can buy your Corvette and have 8 ways from Sunday to make it faster than you want to go!.

So the reasons given are: its cheaper, it has more hp, it has better lap times driven by professionals, and it's a "different animal."
And to title it "always" better than a 911?
I get it, we love the corvette here but to think it's the best thing since Jesus is a bit laughable.

Love my 17 Z however when I can afford a 911 turbo S I won't hesitate trading up 😄

See I kind of agree with that to a point, if they could put my silver Z06 body on my white turbo s it maybe the great car ever made, to me it's the one thing that clearly makes the vette better, it looks like a Hot Wheels car and looks fast, even parked.

I’d add this article to the “Fake News Jealouse” category for sure, now let’s set the record straight....
The 911 Turbo S is better if you are interested in:
-0-60 Performance times
-Style
-Notoriety
-Perceived position in life
The Vette is only for those who are middle-middle upper class and because that is what you can actually afford, Good on you for finding a bargain vehicle for what it does!
Class is sometimes more expensive than actual performance specs, let’s not try to split hairs.
One of my cars is a Z and I find that’s it’s pretty darn good for what it is, no complaints here for this fast grocery getter!!!!

On the other hand the C7Z is a better performer in every other category.
A 991 TTS has a 0-60 of 2.5 seconds, Porsche did it right with that car.

Lets not kid ourselves, most would take the keys to a new Turbo 911 over the Z06 if price wasn't part of the equation. Z06 is the bang for buck king however, I doubt there are many/any well optioned 911 Turbo owners thinking they should have gone for the Z06...

Actually I am one that has my Turbo S up for sale or trade plus cash on a Z06 possibly even Grand Sport. I want more of a daily driver. See my add

Edit: saw your add...its' for a 2011. While not ancient, I was referring to comparable model years.
