    Keep the C7 Stingray or back to a Viper?

    If you looked closer at Edmunds reviews, you would see that the impressive Corvette brakes are good for only a couple of lapse before starting to fade heavily unlike the Viper. No doubt that better tires and magnetic ride give C7 advantage due to strange choices SRT made regarding tires on new...

    Keep the C7 Stingray or back to a Viper?

    Corvette is a car, Viper is a state of mind, at least it should be.

    I was sharing my buying experience, trying to buy one, seems like a right place to do and in case anyone tries to figure out why these cars do not sell? Seemed like a logical place to do this but apparently not the case? Oh and I am still interested in Gen 5, just lost interest in getting...

    Dealer Cash Time On The Gen 5

    If CAFE is the reason to limit production volume, then Viper would be considerably better off as a Dodge. There is already a pretty serious handicap consisting of 2600 worth of gas guzzler tax and 1995 worth of delivery charges. Disbanding SRT seems like a very sound business decision. Oh...

    HUD has been on Corvettes since 1997. HUD works fine on jet fighters, in a car, it is just as disruptive as text messaging, not to mention it is just another thing to go wrong (and they do go bad quite frequently). Regarding the removable top, it creaks a lot on Corvette and it is both bulky...

    Keep the C7 Stingray or back to a Viper?

    And that would be mainly people who already bought it, without a single test drive. May have something to do with purchase justification. :D

    Dealer Cash Time On The Gen 5

    I seriously doubt that the cost of creating another entry on a website is the reason for Viper still being branded as a Dodge. I suspect that the reason is that there are other Dodge cars using SRT designation and separating them from their regular original model which could limit the buyer...

    Dealer Cash Time On The Gen 5

    Have you looked at dealers websites? All Chrysler dealers list Viper as SRT Viper under Dodge brand, together with Chargers and RAM pick up trucks.

    Not to burst your bubble, Corvette marketing is 90 percent bullshiit and 10 percent actual facts. Seems like there are plenty of people who firmly believe when they say something enough times, it will be true but it really does not work this way. New Corvette does not include a single...

    Water under the bridge. I think I may be done shopping for second Viper. As it is right now, my pecking order is Rossion, 911 Turbo, Aston Martin Vantage and lastly, Viper. Whatever will happen, I gave SRT an honest shot and then some.

    LOL, I think this is exactly what dealers count on, expecting the car to sell itself, no matter how much crap the dealer dishes out on the buyers.

    Jesus Christ, stop saying it. I went to the dealer who had the car I wanted, I shop for a car, not a dealer. I have not had a good experience from any dealers, not just one. It would be inappropriate for me to mention the actual dealers but it is what it is.

    Have you looked me up before making these comments? I do not think you did since you seem to be preaching to a choir. In a strange turn of events, the new Viper became a value leader, it is a lot of bang for the buck, regardless of any shortcomings. However, after my experience trying to buy...

    Well, duh, this is exactly how it works and why I said this gesture from Chrysler does not mean squat. What are you insinuating by questioning me not being serious? I am really pissed as a matter of fact because I got a big run around regarding the car I was going to trade in and was told how...

    Don't you think that this approach in itself displays the real problem with the Viper?:crazy2: Nevertheless, I have spoken to many and got truly tired of the song and dance I have been given quite consistently. Even if there was a good dealer (which I question fully, based on personal...

    Not exactly... I just spoke to a dealer with whom I tried to make a deal and the deal broke apart over 3k. Absolutely nothing has changed. If indeed, Chrysler is giving dealers money, it seems they are inclined to keep it, along with the cars. I would say something about the Viper and the...

    Keep the C7 Stingray or back to a Viper?

    In this case, better or different is a matter of semantics. I simply pointed out to you that there is no reason for you not to apply this logic again when Z06 comes out. You may be better off waiting when Z06 comes and make your decision then, makes more sense to me, not to get hosed twice.

    Viper based Alfa TZ3 interior...looking for more pics

    The video game version looks good, real life Fiat looks horrible. The transition between vertical trim and shifter trim looks just awful and completely mismatched. IMO of course.

    Keep the C7 Stingray or back to a Viper?

    If you had Gen 4 and genuinely think that C7 is a better car, you should forget about getting a new Viper and wait for Z06 to come out. Otherwise, you will have another thread like this one in a few months.

    New Z06 is not one car, it is SIX CARS, depending on the transmission and level of ground effects. This fact alone should give the public something to think about before declaring it AWESOME, LOL. What you will see is a set of performance figures GM marketing will use that is based on...

    What numbers? LOL The sky is falling because Juechter said so and these people are already ducking. For track duties, ACR is still tops. If you want some numbers, the only number that is available from GM is regarding new Camaro Z28, generating the highest downforce (without actual speed...

    I have not had an automatic in my entire life and I make sure everyone in my family drives a stick. I do not deny that modern DCT carries technological advantages and is faster than manual but not for me... I hope I can use both feet until I die, LOL...

    I am fully aware there are flaws in Viper design, this is why I have a Viper blog as well... Around here, I keep things civilized. Overall, I think Viper is a better choice, regardless of its shortcomings because it is more true to its origins.
