I am a mopar man so I am going to pick the Viper. I get sick of seeing Vette's on every street corner. They are a dime a dosen. Most people don't look twice at a Vette. Now when someone is driving a Viper, you will get attention.
Creature comforts are not everything. People say that the Viper is rude and crude. Its supposed to be that way. It is the closest street legal race car you are going to find. I myself want a drivers car, one that will bite back if driven wrong. I don't need electronics and sh!t like that to "assist" me driving like the Vette has.
I am a attention seeker and fast car driver.

Currently the new Corvette Z06 will outperform the viper. A regular version of the corvette with a LS2 power plant cannot. The new Z06 really is the best corvette ever created. It has an aluminum frame with hints of carbon fiber. An enlarged grill for cooling and a new 7.0L V8, GM's most powerful engine in a production vehicle EVER! The 7.0L has a Titanium valve train and sodium filled exhaust valves.
The gentlemen from Top Gear tested the corvette Z06 and could drive from 0-150 MPH in fifth gear. Not for sure what the time was but it drove an impressive run at the Nuremberg Ring (spelling?).
In the current Car and Driver they test the new corvette against a Porsche Turbo and Ferrari F430. The corvette had the best speed but just wasn't as refined in the cockpit. Hince being $100,000 cheaper.
Some might talk about how Hennessey's current viper is more powerful then Lingenfelter's Corvette. Whatever! Hennesy has more lawsuits against them then Enron did. Hope this helps. Sad thing is i still love the viper for its outrageous stying and throw you in the ditch feel.

although the viper has the "look at me, i spent 100 G's on my car" the vette Z06 is much better. it has class the viper can't have. they both are in reality very nice but i would have to choose the vette if those are the only two i get to choose from.
