70 thousand bones is alot. I think I would spring the extra 10k for the dodge (shudder) viper.

yeah viper is faster i think...but the vette will always eat the snake on the corners...ive read lots of articals that say that and its the only reason i bother saying it...i personaly wouldnt know cuse i have yet to drive either one.
sigh...my love will always be the pony...and the goat...my two favorites. and yes 70 bones is alot of cash to be throwing down on a corvette even if the base model can not bark but roast them at 30mph.. im sure the zo6 can do more but still alot for ...gulp dare i say just a car lol

I'd wager a bet with you that the Z06 will be every bit as fast as the Viper and hand it's ass everywhere else also.
Can not bark but roast them?? Is that a new language?
The thing about Vipers, anyone bigger than average can't fit in them, where the Vette's are much more rounded of a car.

They are?
I always thought they were underrated. I'd say if any car is overrated it's the Viper.

If I really tried I would probably be able to. But that would just prove my point. Besides, it is a physical impossibility to drive a Viper for me.

Welp. I wasn't going to get involved, because... well. being a Dodge fan I am a bit bias. But i'll go ahead anyways.
If we where talking the first Gen Viper. Yes. the Z06 would hand it it's ass. No doubt about it.
HOWEVER, The 05 / 06 Viper is a totally different Viper then it's older sister is. Beter suspention, more power, and yes. more head room, though I don't think Ian could fit the the vette or Viper
I know someone will break out the Ol "you don't drive a fact sheet" picture. but lets look at these two cars together
Z06
500HP
475 footpounds torque
V8 6.0 475 cu engine
Viper
500HP
525 footpounts of Toque
V10 8.3 lt 505cu engine
Both have 6 speed trannies
Both Available as convertables
Both have great Traction control and whide wheelbase
Viper wieght ratio is
front: 48%
rear: 52%
Base Curb Weight - 3380lb
Vette
base Curb Weight - 3100lb
Front: no information given, slow ass web site
rear: no information given, slow ass web site
Both ways. IMO, both cars are equal and I think a race would greatly depend on the driver, on a straight 1/4 mile. or curved road. As I said. the new Viper can handle much beter.
now ... this is where I close the deal. The Z06 is a special edition of the Corvette. The Viper....is just.... The Viper. Image if Dodge put out a pumped up special edition Viper..... Lots of videos on the internet of a Black Viper..... with a paxton Blower..... racing... and beating... a Hiabusa. <SP>
So I would say.... If you trick out a Viper. she can play... the Z06 is a tricked out Vette... I can respect the car. hell. I even like the Z06. But putting her with a Viper.... is just not right. .... Unless we are allowed to trick out the Viper as well

ohhh one more reason I like the Viper. I can go out any day and see a Vette on the road.... yeah yeah... not this time of year. But in general... A vette is a common car.
It IS however a treat to see a Viper...
Franks doesn't count.... He's part of the crew

actually jay the motor is diffrent...its the 6 liter in the c6 base model and the zo6 replacement is a 7.1 liter...its not tricked out...tricked out is takeing a zo6 and sending it out to this guy i forget his name but for about 100 grand he makes it twice as fast and makes it look stock lol
but its no diffrent with c6 and zo6 as it is with the vipers older models remeber how they had two vipers one was the rt or somthing like that and then there was a base model? same thing. but i get what your saying...
personaly i think the viper with those spects would take the chevy in the quater...more torq...but thats just my opinion...btw still no word on that gto..i gotta find out where this dealership is yet lol...heh i just pulled a jimmerz muwahhaha
