There is a difference between "CARS" and "CONTRAPTIONS". Anyone can gut the "car" out of anything, put a lot of horsepower in it, and go fast. It used to be you argued "power to weight", now we argue "performance to dollar". Just remember, if we all drove the same damn car (ie Mustangs) life would be pretty boring. If Dodge didn't build the Viper, what would the bar be set at? The Viper (like the ZO6) is for brand recognition. They probably aren't too profitable. Factory cars get "reiewed" properly modified cars get "respect". I get sneered at everyday in my "OLD" Mustang (Yes, even by new Mustang owners), untill I blow by em on the straights & in the corners. Then they show a little respect - that's what its all about.
Just my $0.02

Well said my friend.
