Default Vette or Viper.

Would you rather have a Z06 or Viper SRT10. Personally I would go VETTE. The vette beats the viper in every catergory. Best bang for the buck. True american sports car.

yeah, but that is because the viper has a 3.10 differential, alot of viper owners swap it for a 3.73 differential and then they eat vettes.

but i love the vette, my dad has two, they are an american icon. classy, sporty, and actually almost usable as a daily driver. i just don't like the dodge viper, too aggressive look at my car, but not my p3n1$ because it is too small to be seen with a naked eye. and useless and loud.

Nice. Ive been in both. And i liked the vette better. Probably cuz ive driven one. Never driven a viper. But its to loud to me and the interior is cheasy worse then my old mirage.

Take a wild guess. LOL

To me, I bought a Vette because I have passion for them. Sure the Viper has more power and is meaner, but to me, that doesn't matter. People are always ragging on me, "My TT 350Z could eat your Corvette alive!" I'm sure it could (for a little while anyway ), but I honestly don't care. People can throw all of the technical specs that they know at me, but owning a Corvette is fulfilling a life long dream.

In all fairness, though, I think the "the Vette beats the Viper in every category" comment in the original post is very subjective and not necessarily true.

hmm the vette maybe be more nimble and a better sports car but the viper is a true head turner. a rare sports car that only upper class can afford. the vette is a great car but who really goes "ohh ____ look at that vette" i know not me but when i see a viper its a differnt story. viper >vette for me

I have always been a huge fan of the Vette from start to finish. I would have to take the Z06 over the Viper based on the current 2007 models

I think this is one of those threads that's going to turn ugly really fast because people won't be able to express their opinions in a mature manner, too.

I was just commenting on how incredible it was to see a 19 year old kid with a 981 rwhp Viper. I wasn't debating his financial status.
