Saw this and thought you would enjoy this although again they bad mouth the viper and dont get that we enjoy these cars for reasons the knock it..

They say and I quote..
Dodge sells the Viper in low volumes to a set of lunatics who care almost entirely about forceful, sometimes painful deliveries of power (the 510-hp V-10 produces 0-to-60 mph acceleration in less than four seconds)--and almost not at all about being comfortable.
Heres the link..enjoy

Bunch of wankers...............is wankers a word???

Anyway, I refuse to submit to those so called car experts who sit in the car for a day drive around a track and then feel qualified enough to pass judgement on a vehicle.

Problem is people actually read that crap!

The word "lunatics" is a compliment in this case. We Viper owners love this car for what it is, totally different!
