    Why do you think Corvettes are "ghey"? No seriously. Can you provide a plausable answer? No seriously... subjective or not... please tell me why you think Corvettes are "ghey"?

    hey now, its just my simple opinion. I worked at a dealership, i worked around the cars, did basic work (only on C5's). The build quality is just crap on them. The interior squeaks, the radio came from a damn Pontiac Sunfire and they leak oil after 10k miles. Fast car? Sure.. not saying it isnt. But its the build quality that kills the car.

    BTW Ericp, the wheels on your SRT compliment the car nicely.

    I can say this. I hate corvettes. I hate their owners too. I can say this because my dad is a Viper owner. No, it is not a Viper EGO thing. Corvette guys are dicks. They think the Cpos is so bad ass and always so much better than a viper. They all wear their 80's members jackets and leather jackets and think they rule the streets cause they bought an overpriced V8 when they coulda got a 10cyl monster.

    anyways, people can say the viper owners are dicks. I kno these guys personally (club members) and they are great guys who just want to have fun.

    I've never met a douche bag Viper owner, met plenty of douche bag vette owners. I wonder if they realize that they're driving a Chevy?

    Nope, a very large dealership. What i drive is no matter, because its not a pissing contest of who has what car on here... but i do find it funny you are the only one bringing this up and you appearantly own one of these polished turds.... which makes what TRYMY4.0 said seems to be pretty right about the owners too... its always a pissing contest.

    The performance between the two would be barely noticeable on the street.

    Why do you have to bring 350Z's into the conversation?







    just joking... I know the Z doesn't cost 70K - but the interior guages are designed after the old ones....

    THe ZO6 is faster than a viper and probably cheaper. I also have seen that commercial on tv last year so maybe it ran before they banned it.

    now I will agree about alot of vette owners being assholes. When I lived in Orlando, the first time I saw a C6 Z06 on the interstate, me and a buddy of mine tried to get him to get on it a little. Dude wouldn't even look at us, guess cause we were in a 94 4 cylinder S-10 lol. When I took my SRT to the track I met 2 viper owners and they were both cool as shit.
    As far as the cars themselves go. I love both the Viper and the Vette. My dad owned a C5 vette and it was a very nice car. Haven't been in a Viper unfortunately. Either way they are both just a Dodge and a Chevy.

    And thanks Wal-Mart, sorry about comin off as a dick. You spoke badly about one of my fav. chevys, I'm a chevy guy, so it struck a nerve. +1 to you

    I have ridden in both one after another (no street racing) and that is what I would suspect. 510hp compared to 505, 3,410 lbs. vs 3150. So just driving around on the street I doubt you'd notice a difference, unless you were racing a vette/viper.

    thanks trymy4.0 i just love the look of the 50 year old guys in $70000 cars when they try to go around your shitty ragged out 240sx but they can't cause your running so much boost on your stock internals sr that its about to blow up.

    Oh oh, one more thing! I find it pretty pathetic that the Z needs 7 liters to make 500hp N/A, and the Viper's even worse with its 8.3. The F430 makes 490hp with just 4.3 liters.

    ok....welll the viper and vette are very restrictive. we all know this. Also, the Viper is still running push rod. in '08 they are having VTEC yea-uh. They arent making '07's. But still only pushing 600hp.




    btw-earlier comment HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH so much boost
