I guess the GT did beat the Viper. But you have to take into account, that the Viper is the cheapest, yet came in second place. That really is quite a feat in itself.

Also, out of them all the Viper is a brick in areodynamics compared to the others tested. Another thing Vette owners ignore.
In any case, I would take the Viper any day. Not to mention it will most likely last much longer.

All Shelby 427 lovers:

Shelby North America builds new Shelby Cobras in Vegas you can buy for much less than the vintage ones (for good reason)... 289's & 427's, fiberglass, carbon fiber & aluminum

believe a new aluminum 427 is about $75k

1995 Ford GT-90 ..... At the height of the tear-drop design era, who else has had the b@llz to design a car around an equilateral triangle? It also has some pretty good performance #'s ..... and a quad-turbo ..... 720HP .... etc

I've also always loved the Midship Runabouts and RX7's & 8's.
