Re: Perception Vipers can\'t corner

Andrew,

doesn't the Enoz have like 150 more HP than the 96 Viper?

Yes, probably more, paddle shift (essentially instant shifting), etc. etc. etc. - that's why $1,000,000 or more.


This from an Enzo description:
Enzo Ferrari experience sets a new high-water mark for supercars, simply because it makes exhilarating performance accessible in a civilized, user-friendly way. Its 660-hp V-12 pours out thrust (figure 0-60 in about 3.5 sec, and some 220 on top) through a paddle-shifted six-speed F1 gearbox, while never threatening to turn and bite.

I have Coesa 3" cat back exhaust (stock cats), smooth tubes and filters, and GenII compression (done when head gaskets were replaced). So, maybe close to GenII (417 RWHP, 472 RWTQ)

Later,

So your just an American Bully picking on Italy's finest then. :D Way to go.

Horse Power can't replace seat time.

"Yes, probably more, paddle shift (essentially instant shifting), etc. etc. etc. - that's why $1,000,000 or more." I think Ferrari sold them for $600k. The $1,000,000 comes into play because of supply and demand.

Yes,$600k; now most sell for the $1 mil +

I've had passengers ask me to stop because their necks were sore.

Yeah, it can be hard for the ladies to lean over the wide center console and properly take care of business, they can certainly get sore necks.

Re: Perception Vipers can\'t corner

The truth is out! Its true Vipers don't drive themselves like other "supercars".
Shelby's contemporary snake requires the operator to actually be in charge.
Obviouslely a peculiarity in this century.
