Though the 360 is a very good example of a pure sportscar (great handling, lightweight, good balance, responsive), it is no match for the 911 turbo with it's gobs of torque, leech like grip, and fantastic handling. If the world was a perfect place, i'd have a turbo for everyday driving and a 360 for the weekends. But since the world is far from that. I'd pick the porsche.
the turbo and the z06 don't run 7:56 in the ring. a 911 gt3 runs 7:56, and it's much faster than a turbo or a zo6. and the 360 was proven to be faster than a turbo and a zo6 around a track.
