Vs Z06 vs Viper SRT10 Coupe

Precision Pilot
1st
Z06

Highs: Delicious, ferocious V-8; as easy to live with as a Saturn but doesn't make you look like a wuss.

Lows: A chassis that doesn't know how to communicate and snap-oversteers at will, inexcusably flimsy seats.

Verdict: Swaggers like a bad-ass and is at times unpredictable. Most of all, an unbelievable performance bargain.

2nd
Viper

Highs: A terrfically sorted chassis, not one ounce of mediocrity.

Lows: Still cooks occupants when it's driven hard, jungle-gym entry and exit.

Verdict: Wickedly fast, terrific fun at the track, and somewhat civilized, but it's basically a weekend toy.
