    Corvette c6 or Viper GTS

    What one would you rather own? I like the exotic factor of a Viper, but they are kinda ugly from certain angles. (Look like a clown shoe). I think perfromance wise they are pretty close.

    My life is a
    Ben Stiller movie.

    i believe the viper beats a C6, not a z06 though.

    my vote is viper. they are pretty rare, man. not many kids your age with them, i'm sure!

    well im not sure they identify the new viper as a gts... sooo are you talking like 02 model or like brand new one?

    either way... viper... prolly gonna be my next upgrade (sorry ls1.com)... ive wanted one forever...

    c6 vs viper I would probably choose viper. C6 z06 vs viper I would hands down choose the z06.

    The 96 or so to the 2002 style gts. The 97 gts is about the same price as a 2005 C6. Since the c6z is insane for a payment, I was looking at the c6z body kits on a c6. I dont need insane power (400hp is enough.) Looking at the c6z and the viper gts from a profile or backend, the c6z takes it for me. But from the front, it is close. I think i like the c6z better (looks a little meaner) but there is just something about the viper. I guess it is because they are just so rare.

    save up some more money and just get the C6 zo6, liquidate both your cars, except your jeep, save up 10 thousand, and drop like 40 grand on it the payments wont be too bad

    Didn't you make a thread like this not long ago? Anyway
    The viper is the one to go with especially considering your talking a gen 2 96+, I'm seriously thinking about not getting a ws6 and waiting another 2+years so I can get a viper, there is no substitue, only the c6z06(barley), lambo diablo are greater in my opinion.

    Just to clarify, I was looking at 94 rt/10. I held out and now that the company is doing really well, I can have my summer dream car as soon as the weather is "sportcar" weather.

    dude dont get older than a 2000 viper...

    i think they added abs in 00 and the verts withought real windows suck... and a vert looks like ass witht ht top on.. gts all the way...

    -me

    EDIT:

    ok dont get that gen dude... i was looking like a week ago at them and gts's are like $50k (00-02) and you can get a new gen vert for like $55k with under 20k on the clock... oh you might wait a bit though with the newer motor comming out in them some ppl will be looking to get rid of the 505 hp 03-06 vipers...
