    Best compliment ever??

    Specifically because it came from a guy in a C6 Vette, as we were sitting at a stoplight:

    "That is the baddest car I have ever seen"

    You have a Carbon Edition, I think you'll hear that often! and not only from the Vette guys.

    There is a T-shirt somewhere:

    "God Created VIPERS so Vette guys could have Heroes"

    I got a similar compliment this morning by a couple of 20 somethings at my C&C. Also from a die-hard Fcar guy as well (although he has a soft spot for Gen 1s).

    I actually thought he was going to ask if I wanted to race. So I was very surprised with his comment.

    Best compliment I have received was from a older lady at a car show. I just pulled in and the place was packed the only spot was between 2 vette. She got up from her chair behind her husbands vette and walked up and ask me what it was. I told her it is the new gen v viper she said "your car is elegantly bad ass" then asked her husband how come they didn't have one. Best car show I have ever been at to this day.

    Ok, that might be the best one yet.

    Nice!

    These gen5's look hot. I've only had mine on the street about 10 times due to weather and have been videoed 4 times, had guys hovering around me this morning taking shots of her on the highway.

    At her first track day I had so many guys that I can't count come out of their way to tell me how beautiful the car is, from Porsche to Lambo to BMW and Vette, everyone loved the car. Of course I was also hearing how vipers didn't handle well and how vipers slide of the track all the time and warning me not to wreck such a beautiful car. By the afternoon they were joking how the car was even better looking from behind, and that's the only view you seem to get on the track. Won over skeptics all day, I love days like that, these things are a real beauty and beast in one.

    That's the t shirt we need - Viper, beauty or beast? Yes. Or, Beauty and Beast - Viper LoL

    Obviously I'm biased- but the Gen V IMO is the BADDEST car out there!! It looks BETTER every day-just the correct amount of EVERYTHING!! From every angle it is a work of art-the C6 driver is 100% correct!!

    Sadly, it changed over time. Maybe it will come back

    Mine is always, "my kid loves your car" which typically leads to sitting in the car and taking pics. That's what they are for.
