damn, I f'n love the new 2010 SSG ACR I bought yesterday! Please don't tell the guys on corvetteforum that I traded in my C6Z06 for a Viper, and that I'm now a Viper guy. :D

Corvettes are great cars without a doubt. But the Viper is just something almost that cannot be put into words. It is an experience to drive. Absolute insanity on wheels. -isn't it great? ........:headbang:

You summed it up perfectly! All things considered, there's no other car with an MSRP under $400,000 that I'd rather own or drive.

fwiw, I do still have another vette, and its forged, blown, no cats or mufflers, drag radials, and putting down a lot more power than my ACR.

I know what you mean.

I distinctly remember an rw from the C5 sections on CF. :)

I've had two C6's since I left the Viper community in '06, and I'm back. I know the drill!
Congrats!
:)

I'm right there with you ... Gen I > C5 (+ blower) > Viper Truck > C6Z > C5 w/ big blower > Gen IV

I guess I'll find out in Detroit 2013 if my next car is going to be a C7 or a Gen V. I still want an all-motor big block C4 with coil-overs too. Should have bought that Lingenfelter 540ci C4 when I had the chance years ago.

Congrats! The Z06 is a fine car, and I wouldn't kick one out of my garage, for sure. However, the Viper is just incredible. Plus, you got one of my favorite colors. Pics please.

Congrats!

Now the question is, are you going to leave it solid SSG??? I think the other 2 2009 solid SSG ACR's added a stripe of some sort, so I think you and I have the only solid SSG ACR's in the world (I think they only made one in 2010, but I could be wrong). I was going to buy that car if I ever won the lotto.... :)

Been a huge fan of vettes and vipers since I was a kid. I always dreamed of vettes since I thought they were more realistic. I still love vettes and I will definitely have one someday, but I'm glad I went with the viper. :)

In the 45 hrs that I've owned it, I've already had discussions with two police officers about it. I'm now scheduled to take an officer's kid for a ride. :)

Definitely leaving it solid ... especially since you just told me how rare it is. :)

It's like having a wife and a girlfriend at the same time to have both.

Welcome to the site, KW. I got a sneak peak at some of the photos that Chazz took of your car when I ran into him at a cruise yesterday. There are definitely a couple with Ariel that will raise some eyebrows on here. Almost forgot the car was even in the picture.

Get a couple and post them up ASAP.
