If you answered the Viper you would be correct. They look as good as any exotic on the road and usally compete with cars costing 2 to 3 times as much! Some of you guys with your ricer logic amaze me. the 11.6 the magazines post is sad. It's been proven with the Zo6 & the Viper they are capable of way better times than car & driver could ever manage. We can throw a big *** turbo on a Neon or Honda and go faster. You can throw 10 grand at a old fox body mustang and go faster also But if money was no object we'd all be driving Vipers or Ferraris or porsches, Etc. Then We'd be impressed.
Yeah, that's basically what I was saying. My car basically is a street legal all out race car, and I can barely keep up with them.

I think they come with 3.08's, or something along those lines. So yes, lots of room for improvement.

I got to see a new one up close and personal at Dover International Speedway this past weekend. There were two parked in the garage area (I had garage/pit passes for the Nationwide/Sprint Cup race). Great looking car.





It wasn't as cool as the "Ford Fusion" behind me though
