Well no M3 to be found, I'll take the C6 based on these results. I stole the items below from one of my other sites.

"The Nordschleife at the Nurburgring is a 13 mile track containing 70 curves. The following was provided:
7:52 - Gemballa Porsche 993
7:55 - GSX-R 750 -98
7:55 - Kawasaki ZX-9R
7:56 - C6 Coupe (not Z06)
7:56 - Porsche 996 GT3 (in 2000)
7:56 - Porsche 996 Turbo (in 2000)
7:56 - NSX Type R
8:09 - Lamborghini Diablo SV
8:05 - 2002 Ferrari 575 Maranello
8:09 - Porsche 993 GT2
8:07 - Ferrari 550 Maranello
8:13 - Ferrari F355
8:19 - CTS - V
Obviously the vette team pursued an engineering refinement direction, rather than a clean sheet start with the C6. Why not? The C5 is a great car. The C6 builds on the C5 technology and did not just fix the niggy naggy things like the gas cap release location, but improve handling to an elite level while improving, or maintaining ride comfort. WOW.

I'd definitly go with the M3.. simply because I like the styling better than the Vette's, plus isnt there more passenger room in an M3? Although thats not really the reason, mostly the styling and power combo.
