Their are defiently some great contenders out their but my vote would be for the Dodge Viper for these reasons....
-In 2000 a stock off the showroom floor Viper was capable of running 11.9 at 121 mph....( I dont know of any other regular production cars that could do that back in 2000)
-In 2003 Dodge launched the SRT10 Viper. They made the car a lil faster at 11.7 at 123 mph when their wasnt even anything threatening the previous vipers 11.9 at 121 mph
-The 2003 SRT10 Viper proved to have world class brakes and handling to match the power..easily defeating 911TT's and C5z06's around differant tracks in all the major publications
-By 2004 it was pretty evidant that if you owned a GTS/RT10 or a SRT10...these cars were capable of makeing more rwhp with Twin turbos than any other car on the market..While people were getting excited about 1000 rwhp Supras...The Vipers were routinely above the 1300 rwhp range
-By 2007 the viper had shown that not only could it put down the biggest numbers on the dyno..But it could also back it up on the street..Going back and fourth as the fastest 6 speed street car in the world, as well as haveing very impressive runs in the mile events
-In 2008 Dodge launched the newest 600 hp srt10 that ran 11.1 at 130 mph...Easily running away from 911TT's..C6Z06's...GTR's and anything else...But not only was this car fast in a straight line..Again dodge improved the handling and breakinh and the Viper went on to be the fastest regular production car at the ring in the world
-In 2010 dodge again made slight revisions to the viper when none seemed needed at all. Resulting in the Viper being faster than any production car in the world at laguana secca...Just for iceing on the cake dodge unveiled that they will be buildig a non street legal Viper with less weight and more power....
As if being one of the fastest drag strip cars...One of the highest dynoing cars.....One of the fastest one mile cars....One of the fastest lapping cars...Simply wasnt enough for a street car..they had to build a off road version that could do it all even better...
Viper gets my vote for car of the decade
