I loved the sound of the 2008 Viper I drove, it was also cool sitting at a stoplight watching the heat waves radiate out of the hood vents, and of course just driving it period.

I think this is one of those cars that doesn't photograph well from certain angles- because moving only a few degrees seems to make it go from amazing to disproportionate.

The GT 500 does not belong in that category, don't confuse HP with performance. Both the viper and ZR1 will MURDER the GT 500.. lower center of gravity, 500+lbs less weight, more tire etc... Heck I think on the track the ZL1 will still out performe it we shall see though.

For anyone interested, here is the spec sheet from SRT:

2013-srt-viper-spec-sheet

And since I haven't mentioned it yet ...
The thought of 600 ft-lbs of torque in a NA production has been making me spontaneously giggle for the last couple days.

And now, for perhaps the least important question for a car as awesome as the Viper ... any word on what the fuel economy will be?
Fuel economy and Viper don't belong in the same sentence.

Looks like a ZR1 had an illegitimate child with a ferarri.

I like it.

Does it fit for a Viper, or is it a little too 'on the nose'?
