Interesting line up. Sorry if this is a repeat but I have not seen it here before. Will post on SRT board also. Viper stack up pretty well indeed.

The line above the Enzo, at 11.5 is a Kawasaki ZX 9R bike.

The SRT is a monster considering it's sticker price. Excellent comparison!

Know what's funny? Look at all the cars carying 6 digit prices UNDER the SRT. I see the GTS and RT/10 aren't doing too shabby either. Does the aerodynamics of the GTS account for the difference over the RT, or is it the fact that the RT tested was a first gen?

RT/10 had not only less hp and torque, but poorer aerodynamics, in addition to a less sofisticated suspension. The GTS had 50 more HP, better drag coefficient, and marginally better braking.
SRT has still more HP and Torque, but the biggest difference is the brakes. You can just stand on them, with the ABS. No need to modulate braking. SRT brakes so fast, you can feel the hairs coming out of your nose!

I wonder where a 01-02 GTS falls, having ABS?

When comparing the Gen I's with later GTS don't forget about tires as well. The original tires were plain awful when not heated up well.

If this is from the source I think it is then the magazine tested the cars such that the timimng for when to start braking was ultra important. I believe that the SRT got up to 103 mph before starting to brake. Without that delay and the somewhat lengthy transition time it would have bested the 911 turbo.

Check the archives as this was discussed at length when it was first announced.
