the viper is a superior vehicle to the corvette, always has been. Thats why people buy them.


So I am not taking sides here, and dont really care for the vette. (think its hideous in the back, especially in a Z06 suite) But the performance that the stock C7Z offers out of the box, youll likely to spend ~ $1.5 Million give or take 100K JUST TO COMPETE if not beat a C7Z. I dont think the viper is there yet. its a nice car, I have driven it, but coming from 8-9 years of European refinement, the viper is garbage. the vette isnt far from it btw, when you look at it in terms of overall car and not just 1/4 times, or hp/tq figures.

you say they sold 2679 corvettes in a given month or year but dont state how many were made. dodge sold 38 vipers.. and your point is? how many did they make? you cant go per month basis, per year is what matters because most vehicles made on x month arnt sold that month.

i would love to see you go into business thinking only sales numbers are important and never take a look at how much of your product is sold vs what you are producing. The epic execution of your business would come in short order with that infantile and ignorant mentality.

you can call the viper a piece of shit all you want but its still the only american car in the top 10 fastest nurburgring lap times. viper is 6th and vette is 12th.



Let's do a simple math exercise Mr. Berg. If GM made a measly $1,000 net profit of each of those 2,679 corvettes they would net $2,679,000. Take that number and divide it by 38 and you get $70,500. Dodge would have to make $70,500 net profit off each viper to to equal GM. The vette is probably making them closer to $10k profit per unit even in base trim. You shouldn't even be arguing this. There is a reason it was discontinued.
