    The Vette has a MUCH larger market b/c they sell their cars in 3 (guessing) different models with a Auto option. If Viper had a base model, yeah, they'd sell the shit out of them but...they don't and never will b/c they have standards. BURN. lol.

    Low standards

    The first Viper was about as technologically advanced as a C1 Corvette

    Zipper windows? Really? REALLY?

    lol, true ture about the C1.

    It came with 2 sets of windows and 2 different tops. Glass windows, plastic (like a jeep), fiberglass top and soft top. They tried to keep the weight as far down as they could.

    Yes really. The new Viper was supposed to be the 90's Shelby Cobra.

    And let's not forget that during the C4 years, the ZR1 was all engine and not much else. It wasn't until the C5 that the Vette began to seriously contest the Europeans. The C5 was 1997. The Viper GTS did it in 1996.
