After witnessing the angst over the Z06 doing 7:43
on the large Ring track, I began to wonder what type of buyer the Z06 is directed at. I am still of the opinion it is the US Porsche buyer who wants outstanding performance. The hook in this case is the price. Anyone in the market to buy a GT3 or even a GT2 would be insane not to seriously consider this car.
Though I believe the 997 TT will be an outstanding performer, I doubt Z06 sales will impact it greatly. The TT still has a back seat albeit a joke and probably a better car to drive around town or work. However, that leads to the next question which is if that is the reason why one is buying a TT then isn't it a stupid financial decision?
Many cars would fulfill that function better and more comfortably. I guess it must be the idea of driving a Porsche Turbo which is the hook.
To my knowledge most Porsche owners deny that the name has anything to do with their purchasing decision. Right:, and pigs fly and G.W. Bush can complete a sentence.

We knew the Germans had the better weapons,gear and tanks in WW2, so it was no big leap to assume that the cars from one of their best tank designers would be really good. You are too young and too far away to know US postwar consumer product mentality, but if someone had opened up a Hermann Goering cookware shop, the lines would have stretched for miles.
