Pros: Obscene power, stunningly attractive, potential to be the quickest car under $200K Cons: Obscene power, dangerous, poor visibility, expensive The Bottom Line: The most visceral supercar experience this side of 200 grand.
A throaty bellow resonates from the engine compartment as the tach shoots past 4500, a Jekyll-to-Hyde transition from the subdued exhaust burble seconds prior. I slam-shift into second as the rear end snaps into place and the car begins to stabilize. A ...

Pros: Insane speed, world class braking, no outrageous body kit Cons: pricey, but what do you expect for 830 horses? The Bottom Line: 830 horsepower is absolutely breathtaking, like being strapped to a rocket. This is the fastest street car ever made because of its 2.4 second 0-60 time.
Throughout the history of the Dodge Viper, Hennessey has done what he could to upgrade and enhance existing Vipers. Before his latest creation, the highest performing Viper was the 650 horsepower Venom Viper. All of Hennessey's Venom's come with a 3...

Pros: High power. Tim Taylor would be proud. Cons: About as equal as the good. The Bottom Line: Fast, lots of power. Its a straightforward racing machine. Not much else.
I actually got to drive one!
A used Rt/10 1996 model. As I read this on my list of things to do, this one stood out. But I see many people
Raise thier nose to the viper due to its qualities and
Particulars.

Pros: Extremely fast, very sharp looking, great handling, car of your dreams. Cons: A little noisy The Bottom Line: Fast, sleek, comfortable, and once again-fast. This car is everything you could want in a sports car.
I had been looking at and saving for a Viper for the last 5 years, and I finally decided to go ahead and get the car of my, and many other people's, dreams. After putting out a rather large chunk of change, I was behind the wheel of one of the...

Pros: Fast acceleration, good handling. Comfortable ride in nice all leather interior. Power to spare. Cons: Not enough open roads without cops :( The cab is a little small. The Bottom Line: Go for it! It's like being in a world of your own when driving. Great driving experience with a comfortable interior. You will be the envy of all.
This is a really sweet car. With room for two and looks like these, there nothing more you could want. This thing has a 8.0 liter V10 that sports 450 horses at 5200 RPM’s, and goes from 0 to 60 in about 4 seconds. I got this thing up to 150 mph before I...

Pros: Baddest car on the planet Cons: Celebrity status when driven, even a non-lead will get tickets The Bottom Line: You kidding!? Buy 2!
If you in here reading this, you know all about the spex of the car 450 hp, 480 torque. 0-60 4.0, etc etc etc. These are just numbers off a motor trend, these are real life. My GTECH tells me my 0-60 times are 3.9, and my 1/4 mile slips show 11.9 (12.1...

Pros: Unbelievable power and gawk factor - newly available ABS! Cons: gawk factor The Bottom Line: Highly recommended to someone who wants to be noticed and is looking for the most bang for the buck out there. Incredible street car, road racer and drag racer.
Incredible package - especially when you learn to drive it to it's full potential. I've been to racing schools and it improved my ability to enjoy my Viper safely and more at it's limits. If you want the most sports car for the money, no other car comes...

Pros: Big motor, great looks & handling abilities. Cons: One cupholder, limited visibility. Inferior to the Corvette Z-06 and Ford GT. The Bottom Line: Rock and roll
I had the fortune of driving a 2005 SRT-10 500 miles in the desert and through ZION National Park in preparation of purchasing my own. Now I am waiting to purchase because Chevy and Ford both came out with Viper beaters recently(Z06 and GT respectively). ...
