The 906 perhaps is closer to a GT40..
The two cars were built to a different set of rules. The 917K is certainly the better looking car as far as I am concerned and the 917 engine wins on all counts.

The 917 was too new and unreliable in 1969 to beat a 908, much less the GT40. The 917 was a better race car in the end, though.
