The Viper is a race-car with a license plate. The 'vette will never be that "raw". However, call me whatever you want, I don't want a car that raw for the street. I would find a tree.

Did you use your Viper for a daily driver (coupe or roadster)?

Not as a daily driver, though I drove it more than most Viper owners. In 5 yrs I put 43,000 amazing miles on it.

I've seen a lot of Z06's and thought they were cool, but I just saw my first ZR1 up close and I got sprung. In other words, if you have a ZR1, you won't need any viagra.

I often withhold my sexual favors from her when she pisses me off. Unfortunately, she's never noticed.
