Vipers have less recalls and less problems with DBS.

I'll take my 05 mn6 z51 any day.
I drove a viper for a whole week, the fit and finish is no comparison to a vette.
Viper's style is dated.
The Vette turns heads like it's from another world.

Thanks,

None here will admit any car is better than their precious c6.
