I don't recall anybody saying that the M3 would be faster than a Z06, most comparisons were against the regular C5.

Z8 owners do care about performance, but they don't care if it can outperform a Z06 or not. If you think that's relevant, you're really missing the point. The Z8 is an all around magnificant car, awesome looks and supurb performance. But most importantly it's **RARE** while the Z06 is really just another Vette to most people (albeit an incredible performing one.) Scarcity is a key element of value. And the Z8 is an rolling work of art.

As an M3 buyer, I couldn't care less how the Z8 compared with the Z06, or any other car for that matter.
