That's a nice looking Vette but your new '08 looks SHARP !

How do you like it so far ?

Hey VAViper, I think I've seen that Z around the area...it is a beautiful car, but the Viper is just something else entirely. I'm in Sterling, and we have a great, active club here in VA/MD. Bring that beast out to the Chik-Fil-A in Dulles on Friday nights and show it off!

Is your car new or used?

Sounds like a plan.:headbang:

Thanks! and you are so right, even though one might be experienced with high HP cars. This car is a totally different animal and should be respected.:2tu:

I second that - the torque will sneak up and "bite you" if you are not careful - my sig below says it all

Congrats on the car though!

Hey VA Viper,I was driving my GTS with my wife and we saw your car at the UNO restaurant .It's an amazing car. Personally I think the new H wheels look good.
I also have a supercharged ZO6,and i feel that they are two diferent machines.
I hope that you will join VA-MD viper club.
Joe.

Nice pics. Sure would have been nice to keep both of those cars in the same stable! I'm interested in a C6Z as a daily ******, keep the Viper for sunny days :)

Awesome Viper man, could not go wrong with the trade in. That Vette is nice looking but just look at the two side by side. Sorry but the Viper is much more noticeable and you will see that if you havent already. Not taking anything away from the Vette, the Viper just has that extra look to it. Drive careful as others have said, dont let it bite you. Now go out and enjoy the beast.

Well I've put 300 miles on her in 2 days:D
Can't really say much about the performance right now until she is broke-in.

A couple of things I can comment on are;

Interior is equal to the pre 3lz days of the corvette.

The paint is better quality(no orange peal).

The transmission so far is extremely smooth and a joy to run through the gears.:drive:

Stock rims (at least the ones I have) are higher quality, keepers for sure:nana:

No cruse control..:eek:

Stereo needs help (speakers) but so did the Z.

That's about it for now. :usa:

Not sure what you mean regarding by your interior comment, but I assume you mean it is a bit plain. I wasnt satified with the interior when I got my call. Good thing it is easly to upgrade...
