I was told the only way to get a new one is to be the original owner of a previous year'* Viper. Could have changed though...
It'* a Dodge for craps sake, not a Ferrari.

A weak vote of confidence for the Bullet but even with Rogue'* mods it wouldn't be faster or quicker.....unless I shave off about 1000 lbs. Road and Track Summary:
Z06: 0-60 in 3.9 and 1/4 in 12.2 @ 121
SRT-10....4.2 and 12.3 @ 118
Based on normal variations these two cars have virtually identical performance but the Vette is a lot less expensive and has more features.

They are real close, but it seems every test I have seen the Z06 edges out the viper by just a bit.
I have never been too impressed with the performance tests done by Top Gear, especially on american cars. Then there was the whole wet track dry track thing. It is interesting but they just seem to favor European cars, which it probably true since its a European show.
