I have to disagree on the statement that Vipers do not handle very well. I have driven a few, some stock and some modded and they could take the turns well. Ride was a bit rough, but no worse than a Z is on Louisiana roads (imagine the worst road you have ever been on, that is our best). The venom vipers did handle a bit better than stock, even though I was "tail out" round most turns, hehehe... I used to enjoy drifting the viper in the parking lots the rice kids would hang out in, lets see a fwd civic do that!
I will say that the viper was much more entertaining to drive than the Z, but also cost twice as much so I guess it should be. I did prefer the 3rd gen rx7 for handling over both, but it is a small car that the weight balance has been optimized in. I like most cars as well, they are all fun in their own way. I have to say I prefer a big supercharged V8, can't match the sound or torque with anything else. The viper just sounds weird at full tilt... 10 cylinders...
