That's interesting. It's only been around for 17 years, I'm surprised it's earned itself such a reputation already.

The Viper really comes off that way to you guys?



EDIT: Oh, and DEFINITELY go with the Camaro. I think you'll be far happier in the long-run.

#1; it won't kill you, or threaten to kill you, in cost of ownership.
#2; you can actually FIT in it. (coughlotuscough)
#3;....re-read numbers 1-2.

i do love vetts
i looked @ a few c6's (z06) but every one has one,
my dad had a C5 Z06 and it was awesome
but they r a dime a dozen over here
plus they get kinda pricey out of my range...
@ least for a new one.

i went and looked @ the viper just got home...
it was just through the glass cuz they were closed.

but decided im gonna stick w/ the SS
although i say id like a diff car...
some thing more exotic i dont thnk i can do it just cuz i fell in love w/ the 5thgen

Really, I haven't asked them to negotiate (way out of my price range) but the CGM ZO6 on my dealers showroom floor stickers for 83,500. I bet he wouldn't go under 75,000 but I never asked.

A Lotus? Unless you live near the windiest road in America then a Lotus is a joke. If you're gonna get a 4 cylinder plastic/glue combo then you might as well go for a go kart or something. Stick with the Camaro but if you've absolutely gotta change, get the SLOPAR.

Wow, after looking at the pics of that Viper, I have to say you are definately paying for the engine, because that interior is UGLY.
And if you can't afford to take your woman out to dinner, buy the Camaro and treat her nicer with the spare change. You will find certain 'benefits' soon to follow

The ZR1 is a Corvette, a Viper is a Viper.
