    yeah i know wish i could afford one lol, their body in whites are nice too if you are running lower classes think they are 6500 or so.

    i love vipers to death but like the old cobra's they arn't kid friendly cars per say, to get the performance out of one you have to know the cars.

    also like how you always single out my mustang, and not my cuda or my fiero or other stuff i have access too besides my 3 personal cars.
    Shouldn't be a surprise since your name isn't slow360fiero...

    Cool you can go fast in a straight line. Must be nice racing at all those stop lights.

    Ferd built the best drag racing car in the world 20 years ago. Hasn't been anybody (including them) that has gotten it right since.

    I never got the 'it needs skill' bit, though. If a car is easier to drive faster, then wouldn't that same driver that can bust ass in a Viper bust even MORE ass in one of these cars that are more driver-friendly? (not taking about nanny devices here).

    Cool, you take turns in your car.

    Grow a pair, nancy, and get yourself on 2 wheels. Then you can take turns.

    The cars that are easier to drive give the worse driver a better chance but yes, the better driver still has the advantage.

    It would be like if major league baseball went to aluminum bats. Barry Bonds would still kick ass but there'd be a lot more players with numbers comparable to his.

    Chuck you biggest problem with the car is, who makes it, would you have more respect for it if it was foreign?

    It is the most bad ass Caddy ever built, it takes the old man's Caddy of years ago and brings Caddy into the 21 st century. I raced someone you and I both know and it beat his $120,000 Mercede's ass by 5 car lengths. He was so embarrassed he went and bought the $210,000 Mercedes then my car ($68,000) CTS V completely stock , we were dead even.

    The CTS V is about $40,000 less than the Viper too. That would buy a lot of mods to battle the Viper.

    I love my highly modified Viper, but it sucks as a daily driver. The CTS V is the best daily driver I have ever owned!

    FYI last time I checked my "bowl" mine were brown and NOT black

    Eat Oreo cookies then check the bowl.

    My 127,000 mile Viper is the best daily driver I've ever owned.
