A C5 or C6 'vette will outperform either a 911 or a 993 in almost any number you can come up with, for a lot less money and maintenance. Do you want to be 0.4 seconds faster on your morningly commute or do you want to have fun? Drive what you like, and damn the specs.

In the real world (not the racetrack), where everyone has a top speed limited by their LEO risk aversion, the difference between a 7 second 0-60 and a 6 second 0-60 car is negligible, and so is another 0.05g of cornering capability (worth a staggering 1.7 MPH increase for a 60 MPH turn)...
