I love one of the replies to the article:


"Very nice for the 1% of the population who could afford any of them. Are you just trying to make the rest of us feel bad? Remember who your target audience is, and show us something like "10 not overly slow cars of 2011."

Why would you feel bad George ----------- we just don't have a 2011 model, but we all know a 2008, 2009, and 2010 Viper Coupe will do 202mph ( and the 2010s get there 14 seconds faster with the new 5th gear ).

See, now all those folks who paid a gobbzillion feel foolish when they could have just had a Viper with enough money left over to , buy a few more Vipers. :lmao:

I just found that quote from a reply to the article funny (it wasn't my quote). Yes, you are right. The Viper can do basically the same as those cars without having to be a millionaire. I really like my Gen 3... It may not do exactly what a Gen 4 can, but I really don't need it to go much faster (maybe a little)! Gotta love the Viper!!! Have a great day, Bill.

Last time i checked....

0-150 mph

2008 viper=16.4 seconds (dang thats fast)
2009 zr1=17.0 seconds
2006 z06=17.5 seconds (very impressive)
2011 z06=18.0 seconds (every year they add more weight)
2003 viper=19.5 seconds
1996 viper=21.0 seconds
2002 z06=24.0 seconds
2003 cobra=31.0 seconds
1997 c5=33.0 seconds

vipers have always been so impressive for their respective years...expecting the 2014 viper to do it in 15.0 seconds
