Not sofast guys. This new Viper should be pulling maybe 11.3 in the 1/4 mile. The Z06 can do 11.5 in the 1/4. The Blue Devil is still in development and will be stupid FAST! If a 65,000$ MSRP Corvette can do 11.5 in the 1/4 what do you think a 100,000 Corvette will do? Food for thought guys....

I am not sure they offered the 427 with the 435HP in a drop top, but yes, I would want the coupe. They had two 427s that year, one with 390HP and one label "Tri-Power" with 435HP. The 435 HP is very rare, and very expensive [:@]

To each, his own. Some say the same about the Viper. Subjectivity is a pointless debate....

The 2006 Viper SRT10can't even beat the 2006 Corvette Z06 and you are already saying bye bye to the Blue Devil. That's insane. The Viper has a V10 with 510hp, the Z06 has a V8 with 505hp. Why doesn't Dodge build a V8 with this much horse? The comparison below is from http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...s_pricing.html
