The discussion at hand is that people are assuming the corvette z06 is superior to a car like a 911 turbo. And that's only 1 car mentioned.

People are under the misunderstanding that a corvette z06 looks like a supercar, performs like one, so it is one. And that's where other car owners of higher stature with actual real supercars are laughing at us.

So yeah it doesn't matter if they're laughing at us, well you guys. The whole point is that how amusing it is for you owners to think your car is better.

And if you're not saying the z06 is better, then clearly you're agreeing with me in saying the other car, like the 911 turbo, IS better.

So why keep arguing? Just accept it.
this is just an anonymous Internet forum. But I genuinely feel sorry for you and your views.

One can only hope you’re a decrepit geezer or a kid trolling the Internet.

Rob you seriously have a problem. Sell your crappy Z06 and get a used 991 Turbo. Then go post on Rennlist. I post on there as well. Can you post a pic of your crappy Z06. If the price is right I may buy it from you😎

I don’t know Rob. However I guess I missed the part where he said the Z06 was crappy? I actually thought he said he loved his Z06. The Z06 is the BEST BANG FOR OUR DOLLAR. That’s all😏

He really wants a 911 Turbo. Maybe you should go start a go fund me page for him. With him selling the Z06 and the go fund me he should have a Turbo in no time.👍👍

LOL. Well I’d like one as well. But I don’t think that’ll work. I’ll settle for my Z awhile longer😄

yeah porsche dealers and fanboys laughing- who cares abt others, I mean really?!

because I know you’re not talking about just plain owners of all kinds of cars of all cool cars. I said the turbo is a cool car but i mean I’m not going all crazy abt it.

I had the turbo in my wishlist but I’ve gotten spoiled by a spate of cool cars so it’s Mclaren or bust ( I may not get there) at this point. Except as i said, I’ll get a used Carrera S to replace my get-around- town Bmw.
Awesome! Glad to hear your shopping a 2018 991.2 C2S. Interesting that your buying a car more expensive than your Z06 as your daily driver while you save the lesser one back. I do agree the new 911 is more pleasant on a day to day basis, so good call on that one. Post a picture if you get it bought. Would love to see it.

lol that would be pretty sweet.

Then i can keep my Z, and still have a 911 turbo.

Best of both worlds!! Except we all know which one is better LOL

They have no clue on porsche refinement lol. Oh well. Looks like we won't get the facts through their thick skulls. But i get it since this is a corvette forum after all.

But less talking and more pics of those 911's!

Pics of 911s? How many would you need to see, they are virtually all the same worn out squashed Beetle. The recent "redo" is more boring than the last version with more smoothness that it did not need. Jeeesus, how smooth does a car need to be. This thing has the surface appearance of a freshly expressed turd. Really gotta love this "German Engineering", yessiree!

I missed this post. I NEVER said the z06 was crappy. It's an INCREDIBLE car. That's why i bought one, this is my 2nd vette.

And yes it is the best bang for the DOLLAR. But that's not what we're arguing about. I was saying something about german engineering, people got offended. I then said the 911 turbo is a far superior car to the z06 in all facets of driving, people got offended.

Like i get it that i sound like a troll and it sounds mean because we're on a corvette forum. But where am i wrong?

We're not talking about a 2000 boxster here. We're talking about a NEW 911 turbo. Even the non S version is a better car than the z06.

It’s evident you have not spent much time in a new 911 or that comment wouldn’t have come out of your mouth. Porsche has been masterful in their evolution approach. A 370 HP base Carrera will match performance numbers with a 460 HP Corvette with a 420 HP C2S being only 2 tenths slower 0-60 than a 650 HP Z06. In the meantime, other manufactures are all over the board with dramatic design changes in an attempt to stay current, which is exactly what GM is doing with the C8. In case you don’t know, GM bought the “turd” as you call it, as the benchmark in developing the new C7. Could be wrong, but I have never read that Porsche buys Corvettes as their benchmark car. I too actually favor the look of a Corvette over a 911, but that’s far short of the attributes I personally find important in my sports car of choice. To each their own!

Beautiful car! Would be nice to see GM raise the bar and offer AWD. Hell Porsche has been doing it for years.

Yet another show of your lack of understanding. Are you a Corvette owner? Can’t believe you are....if so you would understand that AWD is EXACTLY what the C8 needs due to already being traction challenged. Their is also big performance/safety gains in the wet with AWD. Think before you post! Doubt your weather in Florida is terribly different.
