Which means it held it's value a hell of a lot better than the Z.

I think those look very outdated, although most people will disagree with me. 16 year old car vs 6 year old car. Gonna go with the vette.

And that's your opinion, not a bad thing. Nobody can argue with that.

Yeaper. Almost sold it for a car about 40 years older too.


But anyway, enough hijack. Let's get back to the Z06's!

Those some nice c6z... People date hate on these cars... Yea you might see "a lot" of them but I'm sure they're more rarer then your car Got to think baby boom era are all retiring and there for a lot of mid-life Cris's is happening.. In my area I'm the only guy that owns a c6 under 30 that I know of...and I believe the only one with a modded c6. Been here 4 years and talked to a lot of guys. Op is just stating he loves these cars and it is his dream car.. All though dodge vipers are more rare then the c6z doesn't make it better

Lets see... to keep things fair:

1996 Corvette ZR1:



1996 Viper GTS:





I dont see you posting any pictures of those Corvettes. So with that said, your argument is invalid.

HEY! NO FAIR, KILLJOY! You've KILLED THE JOY!!! Viper photo MUCH too much larger than Corvette photo!

PS Let's don't blow up the photo of the 1996 'vette either, because it's nearly "ugly" as compared to the 1996 Viper GTS. Not to mention the Viper would KICK ITS *** in just about any contest.

Only thing I don't like about the Viper is its engine note and weight.
I'd probably drop a sizable aluminum BBC into one.

This point sums up the argument. While I have wanted a vette since I was old enough to walk, vipers hold their value and have a higher wow factor. With that being said Ill take a GTR over both.. This thread was a major fail by the way
