The Z06 may be 'faster' but it sure won't have the precision, feel and the pure factor of being a connected car as a 991S, let alone a GT3. Just like how time and time again, both the cayman and GT3 would beat the z06 despite being slower because in every other factor they simply outdid the z06. Or even when they ranked the best handling cars under 100K and the z06 came in 6th place out of 7 cars whereas the Boxster Spyder was #1. ZR1 also lost handily to a Cayman S PDK years ago. They all say a lot. And the results wont be any different this time around because for as far as Chevy has come, Porsche has only moved the bar that much higher with the 991.
Well, you are forgetting why Porsche is that good: they have Boxer engines. Why to you think the F12/Aventador fighter of Porsche is, according to rumors, going to get a Boxer 8, not V8/V10/V12. It does change a lot about the handling characteristics of a car. Boxer engines are Porsche's secrete weapon.
