My C5 is off next week making way for the arrival of a Viper, i have owned many performance cars and the C5 has been the best of them all. I thought about purchasing a C6 but as previously stated i don't get that wow factor with it.
That means my reg No V8 ETE is still available, so if anyone is interested make me an offer.
I also read in America that the C6 will be a short run model lasting only 5 years, don't know if this is true?
When i say that the C6 is very very disappointing, i don't mean it isn't a good looking car because it is, i just don't think it will have the on the road presence of the C5.

Viper your eyes, it's not worth the tears. I was tempted by the Viper once but the side screens would have driven me crazy.

Getting a GTS so no sidescreens, its only for weekends anyway so should be ok.

So long as that's an SRT-10 I'll let you off, having recently had a look at one. Big improvement over previous model though at $75k ($130k for the 800 bhp Hennessey twin turbo) the pricing looks steep for a car that's likely to be a challenge on UK roads.
Any Viper will look the part for sure!
