I think Vipers are better then Vette's in general, because face it. Where do u drive 99% of the time? On the road/highway. You dont have that chance on the road to show how much powers under your hood (Legally). So in the publics point of view they would take the viper over the vette looks wise because face it they are pretty bad ass. When your 12 yr old son is walking down the road and both a vette and a viper pass by, which one does he notice? soo... just in my view the viper has plenty of power for the road, and all the looks it needs. best of both worlds. so why would u go with a car that only has power? unless you have the money to waste? but this is coming from some 1 who doesnt like the looks of the newer vett's soo...

P.S.
VIPER > vette

Alright, sorry been doin homework, for class tomorrow.... anyways, why I think the vette is better than the viper. ok where to begin.....
1. the vette has been around forever, they started it all an affordable sports car that can compete with the exotics.... its an american tradition.

2. Like i've said before, for the money you save with a vette you can use to make it much faster than the viper, and if you don't do that and buy a Z06 your still faster than a viper. So now that you have a modded vette or a z not only can you take the viper in a straight line but also on the track.

3. I like the looks of the vette better than the viper. thats a personal thing.

4. Interior.... so the new c6 isn't up to par, but the c5s weren't as bad and before that they were better yet. my c4 has all red leather with black accents... stock looks good and isn't cheap.

5. I've noticed you say once the vette should change its look cuz its always the same... how bout the viper, its had two looks in the.. .what... last 13 years or so and when they changed it it doesn't hardly look ANY different...




oh yea HUGE difference

vette




yep... identical


any more reasons or will that suffice?

It basically comes down to personal prefrence. The one thing vette guys ALWAYS bring up is that with the money you save on the vette you could make as fast as a Viper. So the vette guys have already set the Viper higher that their vettes. Think about that people...

other things,
1. You get what you pay for, its a know fact in life. Vipers cost more than vettes.
2. People have to modify vettes to make them as fast as a stock Viper.
3. the inside of a Viper sucks.
4. the inside of a vette sucks.
5.the vette is an American icon.
6. Shelby designed the Viper.
7.fit and finish is BETTER on a VIper than a vette. (yes it is Ray Charels could see it)
8. Vipers are cool snakes with fangs, whats a corvette?
And again, Im always around these cars in one way or another. The Viper is just a better car. The vette is a really good car too.

correction you do get what you pay for, and when you pay more for a Z you get a better car than the viper....basically whoever has the deepest pockets gets the better car. honestly if you got the money, its whatever car you think looks the best, because any car could be made to perform with money.


and a corvette was a fast moving battle ship..... that could destroy anything and everything in its path, and still be AGILE. Harley Earl came up with it.

I'm tired of this... both cars are made to perform and both are AMERICAN and thats all that matters.

Vipers and Vettes > anything else

and if anyone wants to challenge that statement you can kiss my ass
