I could understand the weight, but now u are trashing the rear engine and 4WD? Porsche has perfected the rear engine layout, just look at the Nurb. times. The 911 TT as said in the article are not meant to be road version race cars, GT2, GT3 will take care of that end of the deal.
SO you would need to buy 3 911's to be all-things for you... but only on C6 Z06?

Interesting concept..
LOL!! Did I mention about the better interior of the TT ~
Oh well, u gotta admit, 4WD does comes in handy in tricky condition. I am sure there are Z06 owners out there who also own a 911 TT.
Maybe, but not this one. It's nearly 300lbs heavier than the Z06 and has about 30 less horsepower. Sure it's AWD, but for a price thats 2x that of a Z06, you'd think they could get the weight down a bit. I'm sure that the build quality is also better than the Z06, but once again, it just isn't worth the extra $70,000. You're really paying for the Porsche name here, not the car itself.
