If Juventina could indulge me to maybe think that another Juve goalkeeper could be better than Buffon :-)
The record for most time goals free for Italy and years of experience both favours Zoff.

What a tough question.
Why don't you just ask who is better DaVinci or Michelangelo?
Is Ferrari better than Lamborghini?
Is the Colosseum better than the Vatican?

Zoff at 40 won a World Cup! Get back to me when Buffon hits 40.

Gigi Buffon is the greatest Italian goalkeeper of all-time!
Dino Zoff was great in his day, but if you compare his every stat with Buffon's, Buffon is better!

Why should I indulge you when I think Buffon is the best!
After helping Italy through a successful Euro 2000 qualifying campaign, in 2001 Buffon transferred from Parma to Juventus for a world-record goalkeeper's fee of €48.5 m. He has said this is too much money for one player but that he does not feel under pressure because of it. Buffon started for Italy at the 2002 FIFA World Cup. In 2003, he won the "Most Valuable Player" and "Best Goalkeeper" awards at the UEFA European Football Awards. He was named by Pele as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004. Also that year, Buffon played for Italy in Euro 2004. In 2004-05, Buffon helped Juventus to their third Serie A title in four seasons. His stunning saves in the crucial match against Milan months earlier virtually won the title for the Juventus.
In the 2006 FIFA World Cup, Buffon let in only two goals; one was an own goal by teammate Cristian Zaccardo in the game against the USA, and the other was a penalty kick from Zinedine Zidane in the final. Buffon kept his goal intact for 453 minutes at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, putting him fifth in the all-time ranking for unbeaten goalkeepers. FIFA declared Buffon FIFA best goalkeeper of the 2006 World Cup.
