Ok but you might be missing an important piece of the puzzle. A Z06 might have a better power to weight, which is really important of course. But is it the best car just because of that? There are some other factors so consider, the feel of the controls (pedals, gearshit, steering) the handling, ... And lets not forget the Porsche pedigree.
The Z06 is a mighty machine, but as a car considering the whole package I doubt it can match the 997TT.
BTW, I'm looking forward to the commoting a 997TT vs Z06 article could cause!!!
