prefer the Z06, though the SRT10 would sure wake up your senses on a short blast. The numbers are so close that there’s little in it, except for one number: The Chevy holds a strong price advantage. Some might choose the Viper anyway on styling and perhaps exclusivity, though neither car reaches far enough on the design side. A more distinct styling statement for the Z06 would undercut Viper’s exclusivity edge, but even as it sits I think the Corvette Z06 wins this comparo hands down. - KEVIN A. WILSON
Driving the Viper coupe and roadster back to back reveals just how good the new Viper is. The stiffness in the chassis and the corresponding better handling characteristics of the coupe are telling. This is backed by our slalom and skidpad tests. The Viper remains a beast demanding your respect at every driving moment. The Z06 is equally a stud in the performance jungle, but it looks too much like a standard Vette. If I were in this market I’d spend the extra bucks for the Viper. - ROGER HART
I wouldn’t buy a Viper over a Z06. The Corvette is faster, more comfortable, and $20,000 less expensive. Frankly, I’d take the Z06 even if the cars were priced equally. The Viper is more exclusive and flashier, but the Z06 looks good, too. Ultimately, it’s about the driving, and I feel more at home in the Corvette. That doesn’t mean it’s too easy to drive, though. In fact, the ease with which the Z06 snaps its rear tires loose means you need to be careful with your inputs. Both cars are serious heavy hitters, with scary amounts of power and almost frightening limits. But the Z06 hits hardest. - MAC MORRISON
