It odd seeing a mustang with more hp then a viper even if its lighter, if anything ford and dodge are just catching up the to ZR1 IMO.

I cant help but think of a panoz when i see the side profile of the new viper, overall its a great looking car.

I honestly expected more HP from the Viper I was guessing 700hp range but the car is probably dam light and the motor sounds like no joke anyways so impressed either way though not a fan of the euro styled front end.

640hp Viper Vs 638hp in the ZR1 but 8.4L N/A Vs 6.2L S/C in either case real interested in what the C7 will bring to the table.

I wouldn't say catching up for the Viper. It makes more torque and a little bit more hp while weighing 100lbs less. And that's with no boost.

Isn't the new viper expected to sport a $120,000 dollar price tag? If so, it won't take much in most peoples minds to 'beat'.
