May i please have your probs lol. Car looks good, as said the Viper wins the head turner award but i've heard far to many people say all things equal the vette is faster.

Those new vipers are a sardine can don't get me wrong. In my neck of the woods a viper is a little more unusual. Now a 69 camaro pro touring car is like finding a needle in a haystack. Thats one of the many reasons I am going that direction.
SW my car is going to be very similar to yours. That is my favorite camaro I've seen surfing these sites for a year. I also was lucky enough to sneak into sema and check it out in person.

thanks for the opinion SW, I was hoping you add your .02 to this question. Especially since it seems you have enjoyed them both. I agree with the sardine factor too mentioned above. I've had the pleasure of driving my friends Viper but not the 'vette as of yet. I'm sure my time will come.

DAMN, I need to get my camaro "done"!!!

A few years ago I had my heart set on buying the new SRT Viper when they first came out.
I went to a dealer and sat in one.. It was ridiculous..
I realize that it is a factory race car but jeez...
Small and cramped.....
It would be hard to operate the pedals in an aggresive fashion..
(I am not that big 6' 2" 200lbs..)
I could not see handing over the money for a car that would be so uncomfortable to drive:mad:
Recently I drove a new C6 and it was much roomier and way more comfortable.
Great car. And I am sure the Z06 is a sick performer.
However, I won't be buying a C6 because IMHO there are just to many of them on the road..

My .02 cents

I've driven the Viper and the torque the V10 has in the corners is ut of sight. Pick a gear any gear and that car pulls hard.
Tight cockpit, my head rubs the roof big time.

I haven't driven the Z06, but I heard its almost as driveable as the Ford GT and super fast when you want it.

I'm a Chevy man you know where my vote is.

That red Viper made me glad I didn't see it for sale or I would have been doing some creative finance things. Dam that arrest me red is cool.

Zo6 vs. Viper vs. GT500
 
Just saw an episode on speed channel the other night and they pitted these three cars against each other and the Z06 came out on top. It beat it in the 1/4 mile and on track times. They also chose it for better handling on the track. Viper sure does have that killer look to it.

Anyone seen the cover of the latest Motor Trend? 600hp viper. That said id like to see the viper redone. The vette now looks too much like the viper up front.
