Congrats! I agree that everyone should experience a Viper at some point. I'm hoping in the next couple years to step up to a Gen 4 ACR.

The Shelby has better fit and finish, rides better,handles better,shifts better and has more power all around. Shelby top speed is 202mph, Viper is 185mph. The Viper is a raw car with no nannies or ABS, that is what makes a viper a viper though. It was a impressive car for its time, the new gen 5 viper is a huge improvement but doesn't look as good imo and is 140k lol.

The 1998 Viper GTS hit 192.6 Top speed when Motor Trend did their Top Speed testing ,,,,a BEAST of a car to say the least

I bought one of my childhood dream cars today. A 97 Viper GTS, 7000 miles, all original and unmolested.

LOL I would hope a '14 GT500 is better car than a '96 Viper. That's 18 years worth of technology for ya.

Looks awesome, wheels really update the look of the viper, it doesn't look like a 97 viper
