RE: 2008 Viper
I think the ones on the right are stock, I could be wrong though. I would have to agree with pewter on the gm preformance except a few categories. The srt 4 is faster than the cobalt SS, other than that, the Camaro will out preform the Mustang currently, not sure in 09 when it actually comes out (I really wish they would come out now, after all, Dodge did it in a year, why can't GM?). The Ford GT is faster than the Z06, right? Clear me up on this Mr. Rogers is you would. As far as preformance for the buck though, they are doing pretty well (just please please please bring out a pontiac version of the Camaro.)

Nah, i dont think so. Ive never been impressed with Vipers, even the Hennessey Vipers. Dont get me wrong, i like them and would own over a good deal of vehicles if money wasnt really a problem, but 500hp out of 8.3L? 500hp out of 7.0L sounds better, and 550hp to the ground out of 5.4L sounds even better than that. These are heavy, inefficient motors IMO. But this thing is gonna be a killing machine.

Although it's a huge motor at over 500ci,675hp is very impressive for a N/A motor.I think you're gonna need some more parts Rog!!!

Thats pretty ignorant. Almost as ignorant as someone saying 360rwhp is ***** from a blown mustang motor. Which it is. Wait til the modding begins. Put in a lumpy cam and a set of heads, that viper will make 700 TO THE TIRES.

Married a woman with a Viper.....only 450 horses....fun in a straight line, definitely a hammer, handled well, but not what you would expect....and THE most frightening car to drive in the rain ever. We now do Stangs..............

Yeah,but if the new ones are 8.4L and make 600-675hp,that doing pretty good IMO.Well over 1hp per cubic inch.
