I was undecided until yesturday. I've seen a new viper in town (VERY nice). There are 2 GTs around here that I've gotten a good look at ( ). But yesturday I ran into a dark blue C6 Z06 ( ) I was in love. They aren't as exotic as the GT and Viper, and the performance isn't quiet as good as the GT from what I understand, but DAAAAMN that Z06 was gorgeouse. Maybe I'm just to much of a BowTie Boy, but my vote goes for the Z06. I'm not a big fan of yellow, but for some reason the pics are all over. Let's see some blue, black, or red.

I love that new ZO6, hands down. Best bang for the buck for sure and with a little tweaking, you can hang with the most exotic supercars on the planet and when this guy's bigger brother debuts in the near future, you can best believe the bar is going to be raised for what a supercar should be (or something like that lol).
Drove the Viper...hella fun, but I'm a V8 guy. The Ford GT is badass, but the Vette and the Viper both look better to me and perform almost as well for a huge fraction of the price (265k?????? stickers at 149k??????? stealerships are on crack!!!)
anywho, Vette, Viper, GT

And who said something about the Vette being faster?
A small block V-10 will always out Muscle a small block V-8.
The LS7 has HIGH compression and a S/C or TT's would for sure pop the bottom end.
I've seen guys put TT's on them SRT's and get over 800 Reliable Hp.
The Viper has been making close to 500 Hp for years, and Im thinking Dodge could get 625 horse out of that V-10.

That said, I like them all and would take them all, but it'd be the Z06 first, followed by the Viper then the GT.

From the times I've seen, the GT and Z06 are very close in lap times -- if the Z06 came with something besides runflats, it would probably turn faster lap times. 7:42 at Nurburgring on runflats aint too bad though

Vette,GT, Viper.
I have the magazine at home with this comparison and I think the GT beat the Z06 by 1/10th second in the quarter and 1/10th 0-60. The Z06 won everything thing else and beat the viper in everything.
as tested price I believe was 70,000 for the Z06 and 170,000 for the GT.

You get like another 100hp on the Z06 just by doing headers and a cam

and how much do you think a GT can make with smaller pulley, headers, and cam?
or should i say, for the GT you can spend an extra ~4k and get a lil over 130 more rwhp (w/out cam and headers), with just 4psi more boost....that along with the addition of headers pulls my vote

besides, a mid engine car feels amazing...regardless if the zo6 can beat it around the track or not. the FGT is timeless and thats what people are buying for the most part, a piece of history.
