it also doesnt have any of the creature comforts of most of these other cars. no radio, no a/c, no carpets, etc. its a pure track car vs street cars.
when you have a car like the viper, ac, radio, and creature comforts are negligible because the raw sound of the car and wind coming through from going fast is all you need.
Like ive said many times before, there are different types of people that buy vipers vs people that buy cars like corvettes. The viper owners want power, and speed, and performance and thats it.. the vette owners just want people to know that they own a vette; ie- status symbol. Hence why it has all those creature comforts because 99.999% of the corvettes will rarely even see over 60mph cuz they are putt putt'd around town.
The demeanor of the typical viper owners compared to typical vette owners is drastic. Vette owners for the most part are like "hey look at me in my vette idling around town for hours to show off my car that will never see a single race or 60mph" vs viper owners for the most part are like "lets tear this road up!!!"
living near america nearly my whole life gives me the luxury of seeing almost every performance vehicle on the planet on a daily basis 7 months out of the year. One thing is true, and thats that you will find yourself passing more slowvettes on hwy67 off road america going 40-45mph in a 55 towards elkhart lake then anything else. Seriously, at the vintage races 2 weekends ago, a string of fucking mg migets passed a god damn z06 dicking around at 35-38mph on the north straight to elkhart lake..fucks sake. after they went and the oncoming car passed, i also passed his slow ass.
vs earlier today on my way into plymouth to get some motherfucking milk and a carton of god damned eggs, an electric blue 2010 dodge viper srt10 comes hauling ass out of p-town at id have to guess approximately 170-180mph.. he was fucking blazing
it shit i see on a daily basis. chevy owners are ALWAYS the ones holding up traffic..every god damn time
