I like having both,but if it came down to just one. I would let the Z go because the Viper GTS is just too damn sexy. Not to mention forged internals,robust motor for mods, and better "car driver feedback"..

Lol... you just brought a $30k 10 year old car into a $65k+ modern car conversation. Would you like to bring my old 1989 lebaron into the conversation as well?


And for what is worth I had no problems with the interior on my T/A. It certainly had more plastic than I would have liked but even after 100k miles and 10 years she still got compliments.

Very Nice! It would look even nicer with a Le mans Blue Z06 to match the Viper! Both beautiful cars!

In respect to individual variances re: taste each automobile is unique with distinct character in both style and performance that can be simply put as the Viper being a "Rocket" and the Z06 a "Lear Jet." Both are fine American automobiles, imo.

I'm fortunate to own both cars. Both are cammed and 600hp. I love them both. I find myself driving the Viper more, but if I go to the travk its ZO6 all day long. Viper gets tons more attention then the vette, but if I had to dump one it would probably b the snake. I would love to jump into a gen4 but would have to dump both cars for that. Not gonna happen.

Well I must say I agree with you to a point, both cars are beautiful and the Viper turns more heads and for the ladies, the Viper takes the cake.
Most people don't know the difference in the Corvettes, they just see a corvette and everybody owned one.
I owned both cars and they are both beautiful cars, but the vette took more to look beautiful and performed.
I also take my Viper for sprited drives more than the vette because at the end of the day after beating the **** out of the viper I don't have to worry about breaking something, well that is considering the output power of both cars and the modification.
Here are a few pictures of both cars and I love them both

I would love to own a Viper and a Z06 but could only afford one and the Z06 was a bit more affordable for me and easier to find. But man I do love the way the Vipers look!
