Lots o' torque, no weight in back, wider front track than rear. And max torque is available at like 1500 rpm, lol. It probably has more torque than a GT3 while idling. Previous models were very unforgiving. You had to dial in some forgiveness. hahahah
The Viper is actually a mid-engine car though. But the front of the car is in control. The rear just hangs on for dear life while trying to tame the wild beast under the hood.

Viper is a bit pricey, but I really like them.

Close to my choices, though I prefer the 275 GTB/4 to the shortnose (though I wouldn't turn down a shortnose Comp car)
Nothing wrong with any Daytona, but I've always preferred the Euro, plexiglass nose to the pop-up lights.
Our dino has the Daytona seats and Campagnola wheels, but not the flairs. The flairs are kind of ugly and they aren't necessary to clear the Campies and and 225s.
Berlineta Boxers are interesting because the come in 3 versions that I know of.
If I'm going with the Magnum car, its a late model 328, where everything is finally resolved.
Nice choices!
And never say never. We said that twice before getting our Dino... prices go up, prices go down.

I find the Viper to be too big and the pedal arrangement is not comfortable for me anyway. I really like the Vette and almost bought a Z06 a few years ago but then I just lost interest. The new Stingray looks very impressive but I'm still not sure its worth ordering one, they depreciate so much after a year it would be wise to wait and buy a used one.

I like the Viper too, but after sitting in one of Lux's race cars I felt like it was really big and couldn't see as well as looking out of my 911 or Corvette. I guess you would get use to it.

I was driving my F350 CrewCab Dually at St-Eustach Autodrome on Sunday. Having a wide *** helps keep the Turbo in check around the corners
