So even though the Viper slaughters the Mustang in every conceivable way, the Mustang is better because it's cheaper lol? Okayyyyyy.

there is no doubt the shelby is one of the best bang for your buck cars out right now but its still nothing close to a viper. If you want to go with that argument buy a base model GT and use the extra $30k in mods and smoke both cars in everything.

That's exactly what i would do, but they were comparing the two.

I'm not saying the viper didn't preform better. But certainly doesn't "slaughter" it, and it most certainly isn't 50k better.

Gt500 coupe starts at 55k and the viper is nearly double. No thanks. Especially since I'm a straight line guy.
