you rarely see vipers... that's what makes them cool; they retain exotic status imo like the Ford GT

It has a very different personality than most other super cars, also it has a huuuuuge following in Japan.

P.S. Don't get me wrong, I love the vette, but the vette interior is nothing to brag about either. Have you seen the Malibu's two tone interior?

paying more for less seems like flawed logic to me... just sayin. if you made a "no nonsense" Z06 it would probably run what 65k? and it probably would then be an even better track car
