HorsePower dosen't always mean faster, and within a 20HP difference it means shit. The question is, can the Vette Engine produce better than the Stangs? No. Take the M3 for instance, its only got 333HP, but the BMW engineers know what they are doing when they build their engines, and that 333HP can reach speeds of 185MPH. On top of that you have to take into concideration weight, I'm pretty sure the Stang is lighter than the vette, because Stangs are known to be light cars. As for my argument for the played out "Z06 Owns everything" BS, Sure it costs less, but the quality is Wayy, wayy, WAY cheaper. Not to mention an M3 Engine is more powerful than the vette's, it handles better, and its more luxourious. Its also made with better quality, not just factory pumped. Z06 vs. M3? My pic is the M3, just because of its superior engineering, kudos BMW, you've done it again!

z06 isnt in the same class than this... its much more in the sports/exotic car this is a super coupe tho <IMG SRC="http://www.supercars.net/servlets/cMsg/html/emoticons/smile.gif"><!-- Signature -->
Sad a Z06 can kill this I love the M3 but a Z06 will still kill this and it costs a hell of alot less than this. Who do you think would win?
how can u tell? there are no specs for this car yet. i'm sure a race between this and the Z06 will be pretty close.<!-- Signature -->
I don't know for sure a Z06 can beat it. We'll have to wait for the official specs. But this car will cost alot more than the Vette and it will still be a close race. If money was no object I'd get the M3, but for value you can't go wrong with the Z06.
heh suuureee.... i guess u didnt read the article... "The CSL was recently run around the north circuit of the Nurburgring with a lap time 30 seconds less than that of the standard M3." r u sure the z06 can kill it? i didnt think so.

Brakes are powerful, hard stops short and stable". but of course some of you must know more than expert car critics.<!-- Signature -->
excuse me, but... I'm not sure about the z06, but the current Vette weighs about 200kg (400lbs) more than the CSL with 6 PS less than the BMW. I guess the the z06 is better than the current Corvette but it could never compete with a Porsche-Carrera-Level-Car like the CSL will be. The CSL will cost about a third more than the base M3 which would be about 70000Â/$. If this is really more than a z06 will cost, it would be explained with higher quality standards like e.g. an interieur without cheap plastic buttons.
