Bang on Mark. Worst handling car I have ever had the displeasure of driving... it may look the bollox and go quick in a straight line, but on the circuit (which is where I drove it) it handled like a London Bus... Good Riddance and lets hope the new Viper is more driveable, because it's always looked good.

IMHO, the only thing bad about the new ones is the dropping of the GTS version. Not everyone wants a rag top...

no, the GTS WILL be back, like the original viper it started as a soft-top and then they made the GTS
