well, I haven't "owned" a Viper, but I am the periodic caretaker of an '06 GTS. I've put twice the miles on it as the owner. I love driving it because it is SO RAW AND BRUTAL(the attention doesn't hurt either), but after being in it for 2 hours, I need out. I love the way it vibrates adn cams like an old bigblock Hemi. It is just so urgent. It sounds PISSED OFF when it isn't moving. I LOVE IT! It's a good situation, cause All I have to pay for is Gas. No Insurance, no $1,500 payments. It's sitting in the parking garage next to the Crossy right now. Overall, I still like the SRT-6 better. The difference in performance is minimal enough that I still get the grin when I hit a corner or floor the SRT-6. And the SRT-6 is way more refined and comfortable. Give me till spring and it will be nearly as fast as the Viper anyway.

Oh, and I've had 2 SRT-4s previous to the Crossfire. Are you familiar with Darrell *** Racing(DCR), The "Red Sled", those guys are friends of mine and I think they are still mad that I got rid of the Commemorative Edition Neon.
