    Lol, REALLY!

    Which one of those qualities applies to the Viper.... I must have missed it.

    Awesome video, thanks for sharing. Yep, the Viper is a supercar in my book!!!

    They don't have a good answer because the facts aren't in their favor. Supercars built in Europe are great, but the Viper isn't inferior to any of them.

    My brother put together a video showing how the Viper has a history of outperforming Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche for a fraction of the price.

    If you'd like to watch it, here's the link: https://youtu.be/9auAY21snqg

    What do you guys say when someone tells you the Viper isn't a supercar?

    I'd haft go with supercar too. It may be American built, and it may not have the 'quality' the Europeans have. It most definitely has the performance, the exclusivity, the head turning good looks, and the 'hand built' status that goes with most any supercar.
    Again, one mans opinion of what and what is not a supercar is gonna vary. That's my $.02 worth.

    Is a Ford GT a Supercar? That's American, correct?

    Of course its a Supercar, I too get sick to death of people snubbing the car, but here is the evidence.

    Beaulieu Supercar Showdown
    https://www.beaulieu.co.uk/events/be...SAAEgJ60vD_BwE

    My car is in the pictures, they could have picked from a whole bunch of Mclarens, Ferraris or Lambos, Veyrons, Zondas.....But No, they chose to put a picture of my 18 year old Viper

    Here is another BBC News report on Wilton House Supercar event,
    The lady at the Anchor desk has a photo of a Veyron behind her AND my Viper If you click the picture it should take you to the Video link

    You are so right fatboy...
    Funny how on the other side of the pond the Viper is in the same class as Ferrari, Lambo, McLaren and all the other supercar brand but here, in North America, some people refuse to see it as a supercar.
    I guess it all depends from where you look at it.

    Can't argue with that kind of hard evidence! Guess that makes it official, the Viper is a super car

    No, the Corvette has always been known as Americas No1 Sports car. The Viper is a hand built Supercar.

    This is Viper!

    My opinion has always been:
    Corvette is America's sports car
    Viper is America's exotic
    GT is America's supercar

    We don't use the word 'Exotic' in Europe, its either Sports car, Supercar, or Hyper car.

    I for one think Fatboy 18 has supplied more that enough evidence to prove the Viper is a super car.
    Also one of the previous quotes rings very true. Its Super, and its a car, so therefor it's my Supercar!!

    Sorry but Fatboy is as we know from the UK.

    This is where they take a lift to the second floor, smoke fags, cars have boots and bonnets and they drive on the wrong side of the road.

    I don't think we can consider any info from over there accurate
