I'll say this one more time, Car and Driver January 2002 lists the 10 best
performing cars and the Z06 was by their tests faster 0-60, in the 1/4, and
braking. This is one of the mags that actually pounds on the cars to get the
most out of them that they can. And that test that everyone keeps referring
to is with LAST years Vette this year has more HP and these were the test
results. One other thing I LOVE the Viper it's one of the most awesome cars
ever produced, I'm just saying if they can only build one fast car I would
rather it be something that I can afford not dream about.
