I realize that. I also figured that if autoweek is releasing articles with suspected lightning lap cars in the background, then C&D will probably also release it in the next 2-3 months (which is pretty soon to me). Assuming thats what those cars were...

The Black TA is awesome looking and the orange accents is much more interesting than a regular black Viper. I really like the TA orange, but I wouldn't think twice about taking black (one of my favorite colors any way). Plus, that car is VERY sinister in that paint scheme.
I say go for it!

Reading the SRT Viper book (ML), getting the engine fully certified for federal standards was very difficult this time around. Especially the need to for full compliance with misfire detection, which is quite difficult for a high cylinder count uneven firing engine. Someone on the board (Nine...
I'll admit that the Viper does not have enough power to make up for one's own insecurities and inadequacies (I don't mean you in particular, more as a generality). Even cars that do only do so for a few fleeting moments until the next better thing is released or you realize that your neighbors...
I think that all of us can agree that we don't actually know the performance of the upcoming Z06 (or Z07) or any other upcoming car.
That aside, what car on that list is RWD with a manual transmission and faster than the Gen V?
None of them. The C6 ZR1 is not faster than the Gen V and has been...
Buying a dark colored Viper (black, gunmetal, blue, etc) is a bit like covering a spotlight with a bedsheet...yes it tones things down, but not that much.
I would buy the color that looks best to your eyes and not worry about the secondary issues, especially the attention part. I remember...
The Gen I and II Vipers did not blow away everything on the road. They were very fast for their day, but stock Vipers had to think twice before messing with Porsche Turbos, Ferrari 550 Maranello's, Diablos (especially the SV), and the C5 Z06 when it premiered. All of those cars posted similar or...
The lack of an automated gearbox probably is an issue in this market (though also an act of heresy), though it will really expand the number of possible customers.
I also agree that unlocking the PCM is essential, so much of the Gen I-III's appeal was the ability to make huge power with forced...
I have driven the Gen5 and put about 400 miles on one in 24 hours and it was SPECTACULAR. It far exceeded my expectations by retaining all of the "loveable" features of the Gen2 while adding better handling, much better brakes, and an engine that is much more powerful and race-like (I guess...
We do generally offer advise on activities and muscle strengthening, but honestly the physical therapists and exercise instructors tend to know more about the exercise side of things. I don't have back troubles, but I do perform surgery on backs for a living (and necks, fractures, etc) and also...
Impressive car, I also figured it would be faster, but these numbers continue to highlight the limits of F-R (front/mid-engine - Rear drive) cars in a straight-line. Can only put so much down through the rear tires even with modern rubber.
The big surprise is the weight, which is also the...
1. Base seatbelt color is black, but red belts are a $500 dollar option and look good in person. I liked them much better than I expected and it added some nice color to the interior.
2. Track pack is not available, but has been itemized. You can get the wheels and corsa tires as separate...
One other question Todd, now that you have run both the regular pzero and corsas, did you notice any difference in straight-line grip in 1st and 2nd? I was amazed by how well the trackpack SRT put down it's power in the lower gears and I'm wondering if that is the corsa or the chassis in...
Awesome video! That thing was really rocking down the back straight, impressive top speed for Thunderhill.
This is pretty remarkable for a first outing. Your car is barely broken in and will probably be noticeably faster after a few thousand more miles. There is likely a lot of time left in...
