    Both are modified. Whichever I get I'd have to get it as a convertible :)

    are we talking about those two pictured cars? if we are why are you going to chop the top? especially on the porsche. but if it was going to be a convertible, i'd say pick the C6. it looks a lot sleeker as a convertible than that 996 would. well at least that's what i'd imagine from the pics i've seen of a C6 convertible.

    C6, you already have a C2 and C4...complete the collection.

    Besides, that C6 looks "sharky." I like.

    PS if you do, get the interior redone in CF and a new steering wheel. :)

    ahahahahah!!! Those pics are awesome. Love the p-car replica ... baaaa hahahaha

    996 or C6 uh? Since I hate the C6 styling (way too bland and Viper like -that I already complained about the blanding when it turned SRT10), I'd say the latest 996.
    I don't think you could go wrong with a GT3 (or GT2). I'm pretty sure prices won't drop as dramatically as the C6s will (like most Corvettes...).
    If I had to choose, I'd pick a GT2 993, then 993 GT3, 996 GT2, C5 Z06, then C6. Not exactly what you asked for ... but you get the idea :D
    If we add convertible in the equation, then it would be a close call. None of them has much appeal to me. Perhaps a viper SRT10?

    C6 is still a vette I dont like its styling to much anyways.. I would go for the 996TT Cabrio and mod it.
