"The lighter, more potent Z06 is faster (0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds) than the 350-horsepower Corvette hatchback and convertible and is the most fun of the trio. But those trims still are extremely fast, hitting 60 mph in 4.6 seconds and topping out at 160 mph."

BS 0-60 is about 4.3 and top speed on the other models is 170+

"The Viper was redesigned for 2003, but still falls short of the Vette in terms of comfort and user-friendliness. "

That's subjective. If you know how to drive and feel comfortable in a race car, buy a Viper.

If your mommy dresses you every morning for school, get a Vette.

What do I get out of that article? In 1956 GM was already making more Vettes a year than Dodge does now with the Viper. We are truly a more unique breed and I wouldn't have it any other way!

I wasn't impressed with my 2000 frc vette(way overrated}and so is the Z06.Almost **** the first time I hammered my Viper. There is no comparison whatsoever between a Z06 and the viper.

I have never ever seen any magazine test a stock Z06 0-60 in 3.9 sec. :rolleyes: This guy drinks Everclear for breakfast!

What do you expect from a company that thinks it has the best operating system. They market to the masses and thus would prefer a Corvette over a VIper.
