They're both sportscars, not musclecars, you stupid pigfucker

Viper. Inspired by the Cobra AC, not shitty European fag sports cars. Has more "muscle" under the hood.
>>
>>16269371
They have obnoxiously big engines and handle like shit from the factory, they are muscle cars you stupid faggot.
>>
>>16269371
The viper was not, at least the first generation wasn't. The body was created off a drawing, they didn't put it in a wind tunnel yet. Had a worse drag coefficient than a modern Dodge charger.
>>
>>16269378
Vettes handle really well.
>>
>>16269357
Depends on what you want.

A traditional muscle car that can't corner to save its life?
Viper

An actual sports car that just so happens to share an engine with muscle cars?
Corvette
>>
>>16269357
>Daily
Corvette
>Weekend and track
Viper
>>
Well, one is a Chevy platform that actually got development and uses a reliable truck engine - engines that got lots of development.

Then the other is a Dodge. An exotic Dodge.
>>
neither one are muscle

Viper sounds like complete shit so not it tho
>>
>>16269461
the only V10s that don't sound like shit are the ones with a firing order that kills them from the inside out
>>
>>16269372
>cobra AC
>not european
I'm guessing this is bait that I fell for but the AC Cobra is a European car with an American engine. Look up the AC Ace.
>>
>>16269378
>Handle like shit from Factory
Yet they're faster than every single other European car at the same pricepoint.

They're not muscle cars, never race been. They use the same engines, but they're the US equivalent of a sportscar. Not a muscle car, because they're not based on regular car platforms, like a Camaro, Nova, or Mustang.

Sorry britcuck. It's known as an American car. Shelby took your design and made it better in every way.
>>
>>16269512
>at the same pricepoint
and? american cars are cheap shit produced domestically in a shed by hungover braindead laborers, european cars are marvels of engineering with no corners cut to save shekels produced by highly skilled tradesmen who take pride in their workmanship in nations that have actual quality control set in place by government to ensure a globally unsurpassed level of quality with all products from all manufacturers across all industries:^)

Viper BECAUSE it cost more.
>>
>>16269357
Corvette aims for insane performance value.

Viper is more of an exotic.
>>
They're both extremely rare luxuries where I live so might as well go all out with the Viper. Always considered it something like American Supra (FR car that's better than supercars).
>>
>>16269597
>produced by highly skilled tradesmen
This one's new. You steal this from Tony's resumé?
>>
>>16269447
But that's the opposite.

The C5Z is legendary for track day use, despite the fact that it eats brakes. The Viper is fucking almost absent from that scene

Corvette is more sports car, Viper is more a muscle car.
>>
>>16270521
ACR is street legal
>>
>>16270216
Yes, but the Viper is known for killing inexperienced drivers, meaning it's a poor daily. The 'Vette is much easier to live with, and the Viper is much more of a direct driver involvement car, meaning it's better suited for track use (and arguably more fun if you want an uninterrupted driving experience).

That being said, the C5Z is a track legend for a reason.
>>
>>16269378
Vettes and Sneks handle just fine if you know what you're doing. The newer corvettes in particular are really nice track cars when compared to their more expensive competitors. I'm considering getting one honestly. They get a bad reputation for bad handling because shitty drivers are drawn to these cars, same with the Mustang. A lot of people hop in these cars (particularly the Viper) and expect it to drive and react like any other RWD 8-10 cylinder sports car, without realizing that they're in an almost entirely different class. They're powerful cars that require some skill and experience to run some serious laps around the track in.
