I'm stuck with a mere 505 HP and the knowledge I will never drive the car anywhere close to its potential.

I am sure that the Viper is a fast capable car, but I am also sure Viper owners with rare exception also never get their cars performing anywhere near their potential.

And Will, do some research on the ZR1. And for those who want to bring the family when they drive high performance cars check our the Cadillac CTS-V.

Jon,

Step up to the plate...grab a MB McLaren 722s..0-60 in 3 seconds. The family car, how about a MB S65 AMG........604 HP Twin turbo'd V-12. These are both rather freakie fast ultimate luxury cars, set you back about 800k for the pair, the gas guzzler tax will buy the Cadillac of which you speak!

Jon,

Had one once. Didn't like the experience. Am not looking for one in my future.

Worst vehicle I've ever owned for reliability. And that was supposed to be GM's finest product at the time. Heck, my 1966 Dodge Town Wagon that I bought as surplus property from the State of NC was way better than that Caddy junk. Bought that Dodge for $500.00 with 42,000 miles on it. Drove it to 92,000 miles then decided to put in an old 392 ci Hemi. Drove it to 142,000 miles and sold it for, $500.00. I did have one experience against a 'Vette and the 'Vette lost! I guess the 'Vette owner didn't want to run his 'Vette to its fullest potential. Ah those were the days ....

That is not your father's Cadillac. GM is finally getting their head out of their butts and is producing some good reliable cars.

John, If I wanted to spend $800,000 on a motor vehicle(s) me and Dave W (either one) would be talking.

I don't have a Corvette, or a Viper, but I do have a Camaro that runs 0 to 60 in 1.1 seconds.

I don't have a Corvette, or a Viper, but I do have a Camaro that runs 0 to 60 in 1.1 seconds.

hmm does that means sub 8's in the quarter?

[Xtreme James]

7.80's @ 170+ It made a little over 1400 hp on the dyno.

[Gary & Peggy Stevens]

So @ Jon's normal speed of driving, he could ONLY drive this car for 1.42 seconds?

Sounds resonable.

I am sure I would leak all over myself driving something that fast, but hey the good news is, I would be going so fast I wouldn't even get wet. ?


Looks like fun, bring it to our next rally so everybody can take a turn in it?
