    Debating run-flats

    My brother has a Cooper S. He switched from run flats to regular and it made a big difference in terms of ride and grip.

    Ford GT and the SRT/Coupe

    Picked up Automobile magazine and they are the GT at 11.9 on the quarter. I don't think the magazine did their own testing. This number must have been supplied by Ford. 0-60 is 3.8. Price is $135000 (Estimated) but the weight is at 3500 lb. Impressive numbers. The Gallardo in the comparison...

    Debating run-flats

    The car rides a little rough but I love it. I had an 02 Porsche turbo and I really missed the ride of the 99 gts I had. I love the car, it has to be driven unlike the Turbo that drives itself. As for the tires, I'm in Canada and even in the cold I really don't notice a lack of traction unless...

    04 soft top boot?

    Guys I’m confused. I have an o4 and I have under, Exterior Features: Boot- convertible top cover. Is this it? I have received no such thing. They couldn’t be referring to the convertible top could they? It lists a Soft top separately, so I suppose I’m missing something... Should I call the...

    Are we a little Viper biased? Yah it looks like an SRT but heck we can agrue till we're all blue in the face. Let's see when we can actually see one for real. Some of the comments are really getting out of hand. Viper Z

    SRT-10 Carbon Concept - Detailed Photos

    Not impressed at all. It looks okay, but I think it could be much better. Looks too much like a honda wanna be. Time will tell I guess. Viper Z

    Why does "Road & Track" bash the Viper?

    Re: Why does Just got my SRT-10. Traded the 02 turbo Porsche. So there. Who cares what the magazines say. It's the passion for our cars, that's what counts. I missed that connection with my Porsche. So I sold it. Those guys don't feel passion, for them it's a job. Viper Z

    Picking up my 04 SRT-10 tomorrow

    The turbo was and is a great car. It’s two different animals. The viper looks better and I like the way it handles. The Porsche is so refined and so easy to drive that it’s not involving enough. Compared to the Viper it’s like a Caddy. The Viper demands attention where the Porsche you can drive...

    Picking up my 04 SRT-10 tomorrow

    Well this is it. I'm picking up the Silver Viper tomorrow. Finally rid myself of my 02 996 Turbo. After selling my Silver and Blue stripe GTS 2 years ago I really missed the Viper. I've come full circle. Even my daughter cried when I got rid of the GTS, I nearly did. If someone will let me...

    Why does "Road & Track" bash the Viper?

    Re: Why does I'm selling the Porsche despite the Viper bashing. Should have the Viper by next week. I love the look. I even know a person who traded a 360 spider for one. So there, to each its own. I'm sticking with the Viper, after all it's the American Ferrrrrrarriii!!

    Why does "Road & Track" bash the Viper?

    Re: Why does I owned a 99GTS. Sold it for a 996TT. (My wife's idea) Though I thought it would be a great car as well. BUT, I miss the Viper. The Porsche drives great and rides well, BUT it's not a Viper. I miss the look of the car and the fact that it could bite back. There are so many aids on...

    Honest Opinions please???

    Owned a 99 GTS. loved it. My wife wanted something with 4 seats for the little ones and I got a 996 TT. Loved the car but its too easy to drive and I missed the Viper. On looks the Viper wins hands down. I'm currently looking at a SRT-10 since my wife has a C4 Cab. I MISS MY VIPER. Will know...

    Trickle charger?

    I use a trickle charger on my 850, 2 Porsche and used it on my Viper as well. They worked great even on a 88 ford pick up. The battery life seems to be extended especially here in Canada where we don't drive our cars in the winter. I bought mine from Porsche and they work great.

    Viper $ SLR exhaust

    The point was that I'm sure an SLR owner wont's stand for being even a "little" hot. I just wonder how they manage the heat while keeping the exhaust cats and sound down with out much of an exhaust.

    Viper $ SLR exhaust

    Can anyone explain to me why the Viper's have a hard time with the exhaust heat? Since the SLR has the exhaust exit just behind the front wheels close to the edge of the front door. You'd think it would melt everything in sight. Why doesn't Mercedes have a problem with interior heat and the...

    02 Porsche Turbo or SRT-10

    My thoughts exactly. The turbo is too simple to drive. It's point and shoot. Where the Viper may bite back the Turbo just corrects itself and on we go. I had a 99 C2 with the aerokit and factory sports suspension. My wife made me trade it in for her C4 Cab but that was very nice to drive and...

    02 Porsche Turbo or SRT-10

    Thanks... I love the turbo as well. I have taken it to several track days and had tons of fun. But the 99 GTS I had was more enjoyable more interactive. You have to drive it. The Porsche even on uneven or washboard surface is easy to drive. I'm just checking the SRT out to see about the valve...

    02 Porsche Turbo or SRT-10

    The wife has an 02 c4 cab. we do have two kids. I'd like someone know if someone has drive these two cars and their opinions of them. I have heard a quote "The Turbo is a tool, to go fast" I'd have to agree. Havinf been at the track many times with it, it just does as it's told. After having my...
