2023 Corvette Z06 vs Porsche GT3 | Pushed to the Limits 

They both did

Both used warmers. Corvettes warmers were on a set off of tires off the car.

haha i thought tire warming was a idea only in my mind

@savagegeese what tire psi were they set to? 35psi as shown on the door panel or 24psi as advised for track use? And why lap 7? 7 laps in is obvious the Cup 2 R's traction is well into the decline stage. They last on average of 12-15 miles of hard use before getting spent

@@saltyfloridaman7163 One lap of the South Circuit has about 2 miles. So if you drive one warm up lap your 6th hot lap (or 7th lap overall on new tires) ends at about 12 miles of hard used tire life. So what are you exactly talking about?

Private cars, bro. 🤦🙄

@@ytsux9259 Did you watch the video at all? Not only were the manufacturers involved, they sent teams to make sure their cars were in top performance.

@@rightwingsafetysquad9872 did you read his comment correctly at all?

@@gregmize01 Yes. He's saying the cars are privately owned. They are not. They are test vehicles owned by the manufacturers. He either didn't watch the video or didn't pay attention. Apparently you didn't either.

Where does the original commentator say they are privately owned? Your being extra for no reason. Settle down big boi.

but you are a Bodie Island Lighthouse enthusiast!

I was going to wax poetic on the awesomeness of this video, however; I think this comment is a far better explanation of why these guys are loved by the car community. I don't own either of these cars, but I wanted a video that went this far into the details explaining the differences between the last bastions of NA, performance cars.

You have 69 comments on this channel. How are you not a car enthusiast 😅

@@farzana6676 Lol I'd have never guessed a number nearly that large! I do *like* cars, I find them fun and interesting, but I don't think I have levels of knowledge and passion for driving to qualify as a real enthusiast.

Well I mean it has 170+ more HP, and this track favours straight line speed and acceleration, so I don't really find it that surprising. As the hosts also mentioned, the GT3 was noticably faster in the corners. So on a more curvy track the GT3 will most likely be faster overall.

Unfortunately speed and handling is expensive. No way around it.

Both murican junk.

@@joegotz1971expensive is a Z06, unattainable is limited run and needing to be invited to buy one like the Ford GT. Nobody has a problem with it being expensive, but if you’re not allowed to buy one, there’s the issue.

@@vaccuumrolls7243 eBay has ruined the car business and greed!

@@vaccuumrolls7243 A Z06 relative to what you are receiving is a bargain. However a Stingray which in itself is an amazing car is affordable. The value you get in that car cannot be surpassed.

Thank god we still have a few remaining high revving N/A sports cars offered for sale in an ever more neutered boosted small displace (or electric) motored world. The future may be electric, but these cars are like fine Swiss watchers compared to an iWatch - one is a coveted marvel of engineering, the other a disposable appliance

I don't get it, the Corvette sounds underwhelming for an 8,000+ rpm GM V8.

​@@justin________7477 just wait till you see & hear in person👍

@@Lhoguef1 I wonder why there's a large discrepancy for this car between video and in-person for only this car, but not other GM V8's and other flat plane crank V8's?

Unbelievably high production value - on any platform this would be remarkable - and here it is on RU-vid, free for anyone to watch!

Free!! Thank you

Only more power

@@emekaiheanacho274 like you know

There is GT3RS up there, and incmoing 992 GT2RS at the top.

@@laijiang6162 the new gt2rs after it comes out, if you can find a one on the secondary market... i doubt itll cost any less than 2-3x the cost of a z06. if the hype is enough, they may even go for 750k+

@@chawletsaowse7742 You know the performance is not linearly increasing with price for almost any product right?

You're kidding right? Chevy use Porsche and others as the baseline for the C8, and clearly were confident that the Z06 would tie or beat the GT3. I'm not surprised at all.

​@John Matthew every single race track shows the Z06 demolish the 911 GT3 as well, yet somehow this guy got slower in the Z06... he's multiple seconds slower on average compared to the average driver setting hotlaps

@@saltyfloridaman7163 Well, they did spend the first 3m of the results talking about the environment and how they tried to make them equal each time, not sure if that changed the results. I would have loved to see base models of each compete, I'm tired of the youtubers who continually put the fully loaded Z07 on display. I've only found one real driver with a base Z06, which is what i'll order in a few years.

Real ogs remember when mark had hair

I think these are privately owned cars??

I’ve driven some FAST stuff… but the C8Z seems like the sweet spot for me. The ZR1 and Zora are going to be nigh unusable on the road, and I worry about the boost noise drowning out the LT6 noise. They’re going to be absolute MONSTERS though.

You mean the day?

@@savagegeese why is porsche so much higher off the ground . volvo replaced the weak heavy rear window with camera in some ev

@@savagegeese you got put on my suggested today, you might peak over the course of a week since your channel isn't as well known as Top Gear, but they haven't done this comparison yet.

@@savagegeese @kleinbottled79 No, he or she said "a month" and I agree. It is after all, a GT3 versus Z06 comparison. These are not insignificant icons that you're flogging! (Oh, and thanks for that!)

Supercharged Gm's motors are absolutely tits but it would've made the z06 slower.

They made it for their GT3 IMSA race cars and slapped it in a passenger car 😂

Same here man! It’s great to see. This is what makes these cars special to me

They aren't rivals though. I doubt there is significant overlap of people wanting to buy one or the other.

"not even wanting to give a car at all" That would be the "F" brand.

Great comment. Couldn't agree more.

@@RepEvox That's true, you either are a porsche man or a Vette man

Respect.

Should push them to lower production cost and price.

Man up.

Im glad you enjoyed it

MERICA!!! FK THE LITTLE SHIRT WEARING EU!

@@savagegeese please don’t put in the screeching high pitched sound at the end of the introduction. Whoever did this obviously wasn’t wearing earbuds or gives a crap about the listeners who are!

@@gregrn779 I edit on calibrated equipment the high pitched ring was under mixed -10db under. Out of 300,000 views you are the only complaint. Check your settings on your earbuds or audio settings on your device.

Speak for yourself, you are a cringy panderer.

Seeing my two bros drive is one thing, and they are far better drivers than me, but seeing Britt(ney) drive is on an entirely different level.

Cool avatar.

looked like he didn`t push the gt3 as much as he did the vette

@@hotdog9262 i think he addressed that when he discussed the input differences. Swinging the wheel all of the place doesn't necessarily mean you're pushing the car more.

@@hotdog9262 or maybe the porsche is more refined cuz they've been doing mid engine cars for how long again?

Z06 definitely takes more skill to drive fast. Gt3 makes it much easier to push the limit

I thought the driver was going to need shoulder surgery after the laps in the Vette.

C8 is Midengine. Porsch is easy to Drive. C8 is more like a Ferrari tributo

​@@milojones5364bruh that's not even a gt3rs or gt2. Porsches are way more respected and coveted then the old man retirement fund corvette. A gt2rs would smoke u in a straight line and on the track. A turbo s is made for straight line speed and would smoke u. Corvettes are a dime a dozen on the road. I've only seen 1 gt3 in my life. Corvettes are a poor man's sports car 😂 interior wise is night and day too

@@user-my4xu4gf1zI would hope a Turbo S and GT2 would gap a Z06 considering the price difference, but in a straight line, the ERay would gap both. Pretty embarrassing when the ERay is $200k or $400k less.

For real, this is some next level stuff

So, so true.

❤

he actually sucks as a presenter. Mark is much more of a natural

The Corvette has been a competent competitor for decades.

vettes have been real since 1984.

Yeah, the Corvette is staggeringly recognizable. Costs quite a bit of visibility, but hopefully it's worth it!

My wife wows at every C8, but she didn't even notice a rare mauve GT3 touring.

I drove both and by far GT3 better to me.... Z06 balance is just off and weight difference is noticeable + from inside the GT3 sounds better and there's more drama while Z06 you need to open roof or windows to enjoy most of it's sound, doesn't scream as good as GT3 oe 458 did for me

@@TRX25EX the Z06 is faster and sounds better to me. And a lot less money.

@@craigthescott5074 if you care about which is faster then you shouldn't be buying any lol, these are driving experience not 0-60 times, go buy a Tesla and it will destroy these 2 if you want that.... As for sound better in Z06 that's big BS only RU-vid videos will tell you, the fact that Z06 uses noise cancelling tech to improve the sound inside and get rid of unwanted noise it shows why GT3 sound better and more natural, what matters to driver is interior sound and GT3 is simply better, it have more character more noises more intake sound than Z06...... Infact i owned 458 which have similar engine to Z06 but higher RPM yet I still pick GT3 flat 6 over it...... If you want even crazier sound experience go try GT4RS and you will forget about every other car you can buy today (apart of hypercars), another example is GT2RS on RU-vid easily everyone will say GT3 sound better but when driving it I will pick GT2RS over GT3 sound anyday..... Some sounds these car produce can't be recorded or heard in these videos, GT4RS have that crazy intake sound even at 2000RPM that I couldn't hear it after recording with my phone but in person damn it's addictive!!!

Actually, this is better than it used to be.

The corvette has been bullying Porsche 911s since the 1990 Corvette ZR1, which performed better than the flagship 911 Turbo

​@@saltyfloridaman7163 yes, but now even the base model is outrunning the 911.

Corvettes have always been blasting Porchses, Ferraris, McLarens, Lamborghinis, Dodge Vipers, Ford GT's for a long time. What you mean just now?

​@@saltyfloridaman7163 911 turbo arent really track cars, and did u say "since" ? Zr1 cant do sht against gt2rs

Except for what you guys are forgetting, the turbo S will shit all over the best Corvette has in a quarter mile which is the only thing Corvette was known for in the past. And if they actually compare the GT3 RS which is Porsches top version of the NA motor GT3, it’ll shit on the Corvette in a road course

Good man!!

Cool

I think Most OEM's (think Ferrari) don't let their cars do comparisons

Yeah because most journalists are little whiny beta male cry babies TFL oops didn't mean to say that but true

Probably cause it sounds like a Nat Geo channel for rabid geese

Bible: Swine dis pearls

Because they're not trying to do what the others are doing. Priorities are somewhat different.

cuz they tell it like it is

because it's actually good

Scott Turbowski fan?

Z06 sounds like a Ferrari 360 CS, which I absolutely adore.

There could have been more external sound demo, and as for the Z06, I guess the fake engine noise cannot be turned off, so that's a turn-off. Hard to compare excitement level here when one is faking it.

@@Dowlphin Always THE BEST production values on RU-vid by a huge margin. It has always been so. Amazing head to head. I'd still take the Porsche. Keep keeping on. Luv and Peace.

@@Dowlphin I think he made an error concerning the sound in the ZO6. It is not fake at all. The chief engineer of Chevy explained the muffler tips are shaped like a reverse megaphone. This arrangement has the benefit of sending the sound forward to the cabin.

@@ronretired282 Uhm... reverse megaphone? You need to expel the exhaust cases, so you cannot reflect sound pressure forward there. Look at them at 9:44. And that wouldn't mean they're satisfied with the sound. Jack specifically said they're using ASD to remove unwanted frequencies and fake engine noise to add some others, while showing the center speaker between the seats.

Huge facts.

Minimum bias??? Nobody unbiased could possibly pick this Vette over a 911 GT3. Go drive them. Go own a Porsche and a Vette. What a joke.

This is a slick ad paid for by GM and not an unbiased comparison test. Go drive these cars yourself. The GT3 is WAAAAY better.

@@getoverit123 Is the GT3 a WAAAAAY better daily driver on the roads than the Z06?????

@@getoverit123 Get some "Preparation H" for your butt hurt Porsche fanboy. 😂🤣😂 The cold hard FACTS are on all tracks, except maybe a go-cart track, and on the street also the Corvette "Z07" is a faster car, a better all around and more practical daily driver, with WAY MORE driver and comfort features and it STILL costs $100K less than the 911 GT3. You lose all all counts. This video has the FACTS & PROOF and you have your BIASED OPINIONS.

ZO6 looks like a knock off ferrari 😂

Forget about Porsche,they're in their own league.I'd rather see the Viper come back and rival the Corvette :(

@@robb5828 Viper was great

there he is!

Hate all yours. Embarrassing brochure readings for ADHD laden manchildren. Worst car reviews of any platform to date.

Thank you for the gift❤

Thank you for the kind words.

I like their video on engine break-in.

Yup conclusion we came to in our track analysis. Make the track smaller the gt3 comes ahead, grow the straights the z06s Lead grows.

The GT3 makes more downforce though

Amen!

Seriously? Then you aren't pushing hard if you don't need to make small steering adjustments. Ever seen in-car footage of IMSA/WeatherTech/Trans AM...etc? Drivers are constantly making steering corrections when they move between grip and loss of traction. Heck, I do this in my 2019 SS 1LE and I'm a weekend warrior. The difference for me is unlike you admitted above, I do this on a proper closed course so as to not endanger the general public. And news flash... car is ideal at race/session start and as things come up to temp there is fall off... you will never be 100% comfortable unless you are going slow. Try it sometime it is exhilarating!
