vette or viper

[manny78]

I like Vettes but I always hear people saying it reminds them of a cheesy old man having a mid life crisis. That alone has kept me from buying one, lol. Not only that but you see corvette's all the time. You don't see that many Vipers out there. It blows a vette away in both style and performance. The V10 sounds beautiful and really opens up when you get it on the highway. My only complaint is that it's a gas pig.

I'm not a fan of the new body style either. The older one looks unique. A lot like the Shelby Cobra from the 60's. Go for it bro. You'll love it!

Viper owns the Z06 on a straight line, I agree.... BUT the Z06 will definitely beat the Viper on a circuit track. Btw I'm not a Vette fan but I've seen enough Vettes owning Vipers on the track that I have to give credit where its due

theres too many vettes around nowadays though, and i dont drive the car on the track so that doesnt apply to me. viper just have a meaner and cooler look to them. i agree the new ones arent appealing to me at all but the ACR is a fuggin sweet car

I dont know man....gotta check all my car mags and yeah the viper is faster...just by a bit...but the vette you can still do a lot to the car to make some more horsey's bro....plus ....it handles soooo much better....

whats your budget?

my buddy down in texas just finished up a twin turbo project on one of his two gts's. after the custom headers the car went onto the dyno and made 1298rwh and the clutch let loose (hes waiting on a carbon clutch now). this car is totally undrivable on the street. With the boost controler off (10.1 psi), it gets sidways if you hit it at 100+mph, he dynoed it on slicks and there was rubber everywhere. now theres a viper, lol.

I am not fond of Dodge made.....
But I guess look wise, go with the viper

also dont know if youve heard yet but theres another new vette coming out March 2008 C/Y as a mid year 2008 Model intro. 650 hp, 7.0 liter Supercharged, 2900 lbs., Lexan side and back glass, CF everything, etc. no word on price yet but it should be over 100k since the XLR-V is already at the 100K point and gm is looking at far fewer than the 35,000 $40k Vettes, and the 5,500 $70k Z06's that come out each year.

Vipers remind me if hairy Italians with lots of gold on. The guys who drives vipers up in Montreal look like this...or maybe they are Lebanese...in any case, no to a viper. I love Vette's and or BMW's!
