as for the snow, yea its prob a good choice, but its not magic, it not like you're going to do any racing in the snow you'll just crash and die.

im sure you can get around better than a rwd v8 car, since i can barely drive mine in the rain... thats what 4x4 trucks are for
I suppose I could try flying around in the snow, but it'd be pretty dumb to do so. So far this thing's gone just as well (sometimes better) as any other 4x4 truck in the snow as long as you can try and keep it out of boost (which can be pretty damn hard at times). As for cornering and turning, there is a learning curve to it. If you try and drive it like a fwd car (like I did the first few days of owning the car) you'll end up straight into a wall or trees. Once you get the hang of how it reacts and what to do and not do, IMO it's much better than any fwd or rwd through twisties. A lot has to do with it's weight balance also, which is also better than most fwd/rwd combos, although mid engine rwd will be far superior to any of those. There's always 2 sides to every coin.

Anything that has more than 2 wheels is too heavy *to me* lol.

If cost wasnt an issue I think id take the viper but thats just me.

you are right that entry level, or, "hey i'll bring my car to the track today" awd will perform well and prob better than most rwd cars with street tires and lots of power. but once you get into racing and high powered cars rwd always will be superior

You're a dumbass. IT LOOKS LIKE ----.

I don't know why you can't realize things that are obvious even to the biggest morons on here. Most of the other posters have also stated how shitty the interior looks. You think it doesn't? The car is powerful and fast, I'll give it that. But for the cost they could do some more work on the interior.

Goddamn.

And for the record, the corvette's interior looks much better than this piece of ----. I'm not jealous, I'd never buy a Viper even if I had the money.

BTW:
jealous = wrong
poor = wrong
kid = wrong

Grow the ---- up

This is one of the extremely few times that I would have to say that I agree with you.

No ----. If I had the money I wouldn't buy a shitty camaro or mustang, and sure as ---- wouldn't blow that much money on that PIECE OF ---- viper.

Again, do us all a favor and grow the hell up. You think you're an extremely intelligent e-thug, but most think otherwise. You don't know me. I'm not poor, a kid, or jealous of a piece of ---- viper. It's amazing how you think you know everything about everyone and everything, yet you make it blatantly obvious you're a close-minded idiot. How often do people agree with you? Very rarely. It must be because everyone except you is ignorant. I'd love to see you in a debate. Instead of proving your ideas you throw out personal insults. Classic.

Please, call me more names and make more judgments from the internet. Sometimes I forget what elementary school was like.

you are the one that is ignorant. you've never owned a viper, driven or sat in one... so how would you know? you closed minded bigot racist.

life long loser, thats you.

viper is world class, and owns everything in europe as much or more than the c6 z06 does. find a faster car for the money from europe. you can't.
