      viper or nsx

      I can get either one which of course will be used. I just got bored with the current toy and wanting a different change of pace. Which one would ya go with? and why?

      What year of NSX, and what year of Viper? Modded or stock?

      However long you think your project will take, double it and you might be halfway right.

      Had a lightly modded NSX years ago. Haven't owned any Vipers, but I've driven a bunch (GTS, ACR etc.). I'd take my NSX over any of them. Totally rock solid, never gave me a lick of trouble, and sounded amazing at 7500 with Comptech pipes. One of the few cars I really miss.

      Viper without a doubt. The lines can't be beat and the V10 is awesome!

      Viper. In the NSX it's sad to drive a car that looks exotic, but gets out run by just about anything with an ls1.

      I am not a Acura fan myself, but I always loved the NSX. That is my choice.

      I finally got to drive an NSX several years ago and it was a huge let down. It's a nice car that you could daily drive like any other Honda, but the acceleration was nothing compared to what's out there now. It was an early 90s model, so perhaps they've improved in the years you're looking at. I didn't have an opportunity to test the handling, but I'm sure it would do quite well in that department. My vote, Z06....oh, I mean Viper.

      Viper definitly. But put a beefy exhaust on that thing. They sound like a 6 banger when you gun em.

      I used to hate NSX's when they 1st came out, then I actually started liking them. It's a fun car to drive. Even with that said, I'd always choose the Viper. I hope to own one eventually.

      Check this turbo NSX, no Viper will ever run with this thing note the Spring Mountain lap time along with big Willow.

      X2, I drove my friends nsx, grat handling but heavy steering (it was an early one w/o power steering) but a total dog on power. Viper over that any day, or have you driven a z06?

      Thats a real good question. And are total opposites in the type of performance they deliver. If you want a tight handling, high rpm, super sleek semi-exotic look. Or raw tire shredding gas guzzling V10 torque and brute power with the american muscle appeal.

      I'll tell you what, putting myself in your shoes, I find it equally as hard. i would have to drive each the same day or one day after the other. It would come to wish is more appealing at that point.
