Let's be real. The Z06 is a great car -- maybe a bit too common, as it seems to be bought by many folks who need a manual to find the dip-stick, but that's whole other issue. But the point of this thread is that the Viper has always been about pure performance, period. The Z06 showed up 18 months ago, walked into the house of Viper and proclaimed itself to be the new king. Not taking anything away from the Z06, but the '08 Viper has just reclaimed that crown, and kicked the Z06 out (of the house of Viper) and back into the world of special edition versions of lesser base cars. That's that bottom line. |
My point about the air filter was how close things really are here.
It's a drivers race. If you call that taking back that crown then you have low standards.
