Serge... You won't fit in a Viper, because I don't fit in a Viper.

Strange! I remember driving the second gen GTS coupe a few times and it was juuust enough for me to fit. I actually did call about the SRT Viper but asked the sales guy to find out for me if there would be enough room for a guy 6'2". This was over a month ago. I don't expect him to ever call back. That is a separate issue all together with domestic cars. Lack of motivation, follow through, as well as lack of knowledge of product all together as is often very noticeable when it comes to sales guys and gals... Sometimes I wonder how they sell anything at all! The few times in the last few years I had to deal with a Ford, Jeep and a Chevy dealer, I was left with a bad taste in mouth of the whole experience. Stark contrast to the German and even Japanese brand sales for the most part.

interesting vid Serge, albeit a 'Motor Trend' guy ! I am a little surprised (no wait I shouldn't be ....it's Motor Trend) that they didn't at least compare the ZO6 to the 'S' version Carrera, for in the realm of performance I suspect it would spank that Carrera quite nicely !

Overall I understand the 'quality difference' as well as the $$ differential that goes along with it.

in the end...... I love 'em both !!

Surprisingly the rear end looks more like something that came out of Japanese automotive design studios now that I see it in the flesh. Based on those earlier renderings I thought the taillights were going to be more Camaro than anything else. Overall I like the new Stingray.
