I like both Chevy and Ford. But I'd take a FGT over a ZR1 in a heartbeat.

I think that the FGT is much more "exotic" than a ZR1 in every regard but however getting in/out of one is a nightmare. The upper section whacks you in the head every time if you're not careful.

Lmao. That's the only thing I'm concerned about with the GT being that I'm 6'5! I hope if I ever get the chance to own one, that I never forget and slam the door haha.

I think this thread was a bad idea… it just confused the hell out of me
I was actually going to place the order for the WORLD CHALLENGE EDITION of the ACR Viper a few weeks back (I have to go through a US dealer, no one here is welling to bring it). Really like this edition but maybe remove some of the graphics/stickers and only keep the +40hp and the wheels



But with the world the way it is I believe I am better of waiting till the end of the year or the start of the next…

I am convinced that the ACR is a hate it or love it vehicle but what is it that I love about it…
Love the fact that it is a crazy car just like my RT/10, and I am talking about crazy in every way… aero, color scheme, sound, power, performance, safety (or lack off) etc. I don’t believe any other manufacturer is dumb/stupid/ballsy enough to put out a car like this, even they (Dodge) stopped. What you get for your $$$ performance-wise is amazing!!! but hate the build quality/material which in my view is behind when talking $100+ car.



I know I will hate the way it drives on the 70% of our roads but hoping the other 30% plus track time will make up for it

Best dealers that I have found are in the Midwest for the Viper (price is the only thing I am looking at cause it will be exported), I don’t know is you guys have a different view… Omaha has the WC edition in blue right now
But think I should just stick to the ACR

I burn my legs every time I get out of the RT/10… damn side pipes

Cool car Hani! I have read the comments in the thread and with no experience of muscle cars handling I will not comment that but I like the fact that you have one.

It would be nice to put all the facts of power, handling, performance, price, design, etc to the side and just by a car for pure fun and pure fear of the fact that the car can go of the road if you not take care and use your skills

And in the same way get a car just because you like the way it looks, more than you are interested of the cars performance!

The poll shows 53 yes and 21 no. So there's your answer. Go get the ACR and tell us your first hand experience. Seriously the ACR will be much more unique in your part of the woods where as all the other Italian exotics are like taxis.

Raptors are awesome to drive Jason. If you ever buy a pick up, it's the one to get.

Back on topic, do whatever your heart desires Hani. If you truly want an ACR, then nothing should hold you back since you have the means.
