Saw the other Viper thread and want to say thanks for all the info. Didn't want to jack that thread so I created my own.
I sold my GT500 last year and I'm looking at replacing it with a Viper possibly.
I test drove an 06 SRT-10 today, and was less than blown away. As I rolled into the gas in first gear, I was expecting the rear to break loose and spin the tires like crazy, but it didn't. It didn't accelerate at all like a 500+ HP car should. It's the first one I've driven, so there could have been something wrong with it and I just couldn't tell. Maybe I'm just so used to PD supercharged cars that the NA feel of the Viper just isn't that impressive to me. I still think it should have been able to roast the tires though.
Thoughts?
