the problem is with the new corvette. everyone who can afford an expensive sports car is buying the new c7. the viper is a little more expensive than what you get for the price and dealers are being suuuper stingy with the few prospective viper buyers that there are. they very rarely offer test drives and often talk people out of buying them

Sportcar= Compromises. That should be a verse in the automotive bible. Long live Drivers cars and car purists. I totally like cars that scare the crap out of me. Flicking paddles and going fast around a corner with active aero tech, stability and traction, all wheel drive with torque vectoring will NEVER be fun ANYWHERE compared to shyt load of torque, rear wheel drive, little to no nannys, and a box that you gotta row yourself whilst pressing a third pedal along with your brake and gas pedal trynna get a heel-and-toe perfect before a corner entry. Its not for everyone though thats for sure. And i'd rather have one car for everyday bashing in traffic etc. and a VIPER for everything else, with money STILL left over for more fun stuff. Hell for the extra $60 grand left over, why wouldn't I buy and modify a BRZ or even buy a base Cayman? Fun is subjective right? I say Zack for President !!

cheapo911 Nothing is perfect...it doesn't have a manual box :P so therefore to some old loyal Porsche customers, that is a huge problem. They do make some extraordinary cars, but you can't mess around with the SRT Viper. The word 'beast' defines the Viper and its just such a manly car. It will punish you, kick you in the crotch, plant your face into the ground, and spit on you. It will make a driver out of anyone. Porsche, while great, is not so great when my grandma can get in it and do 0-60 in 2.6 sec. A car that requires effort to learn and control, is worth more to a proper driver and will always bring more joy and keep you in control. Now that doesn't apply to everyone because FUN is a subjective term and some people just wanna get in it and gun it, which is also fine, though I was simply stating my point of view under this video. Whatever floats your boat man but NOTHING is perfect. And if this Porsche is the definition of Perfect, then I say imperfection is the fun game to play, as Zack Klapman has stated beautifully, that a supercar MUST have compromises. Some of us like it like that.

Even though it handles and goes like a race car, it has the luxury of a grand tourer.

I get it. Your porch is not a sportscar. That is obvious. It's a porch. But how is the Porsche?

I know I'm going to get hammered for stating this, but here it goes. The Viper looks dated, yes I know people say the Porsche is unchanged from the get go (50 years) But there is just something very special about this car and it's design. It steps forward every generation, whereas the Viper just doesn't do that and falls behind the times. Flame on.

Love the paint on the turbo. Also this video was very well written and couldn't agree more with the both opinions

Viper all day, its looks better sounds better, More exciting, Much cheaper to own and use, Manual, Rwd, When you have a car that does everything...You have a car that does nothing, And that for me, Isnt a good thing. The turbo is certainly no bad car in any way, But its not the car for me.

Great balance between the presenters, enjoyed the vid. Loved the two takes on the cars, that porsche is so sick I don't care if you call it a sports car or not =)

At least! You're back, Matt!

Shouldn't talk like the Viper isn't a fast car. They both have advantage and disadvantage. I love the suspension technology of Porsche. Soft shocks and dampers allows better weight transfer to rear during acceleration and an active roll control for better balance on race tracks, still the pitch of the car is a bit too much and did co some oversteer underbraking, lighter the rear is, less effectiveness it gain from the stability control. The launch is awesome. It's one of the most torque AWD car which allows it knock to 60 in 2.6 and 1/4 in 10.6s. However, the Viper is slower in acceleration coz SRT never care about 0-60. It's a RWD with an useless launch control unless you're on a proper drag strip. The damper is also too stiff, you can't accelerate as quick as the Turbo S for sure. However, if it's a rolling start, the Viper may gain some advantage. Compare them both is kind of useless. The Viper is a sportscar and the 911 is a GT. However, comes to lap time, the Viper is a Porsche eater. It got the potential to be fast. Look at the TA. Stiffer shocks, wider rear tire, lighter, more power makes it far faster than 911 Turbo S on Laguna Seca and VIR. I call this doing more with less.

That s has brutal acceleration. I'd take that over viper any day. Can't see myself spending that much for a dodge plus the s does everything well.

Zack has some of the best one-liners I've ever heard in a car review lol

Matt wins for better argument. Zach wins for better monologue.

finally a good review of a euro car from the smoking tire

doesnt happen often the bias is reeking towards american tat from this channel normally

Porsche embodies art, precision, and usable performance in one package through decades of R&D and motorsports heritage. The Viper is awesome and capable, but will always be a one trick pony. I love my 996 Porsche and am considering a 991 Turbo. My dream car is the 911 GT3; then again, I would be a Hippocratic if i bought that car. We must remember what Porsche has done with the 911 Turbo since it first came out. The Turbo has evolved from being the widow-maker to a car that anyone can drive fast. Porsche, there is no substitute.

I liked the battle between Zack and Matt but I would of liked to see Zack in Turbo S and Matt in the Viper. Great video as always!!

really liked how there were the 2 different characters and reviewers

Get that kid out of there, he doesnt know what he's talking about. The porsche is not a sports car because "its too good"? Then he goes on to say he turns off the radio in the viper because he wants to focus (as if he couldnt drive with it because it would be too distracting for him) does that mean he needs extra help to drive? This guy doesnt know what he is trying to say and its only the start of the video! "I think a sports car should require you to compromise a few things" So if its not compromising on something it cant be a sportscar? The cringe!

He turns off the radio because he wants to enjoy a drivers car. The Viper shouldn't even have a radio.

You're just too dense to get what hes saying. A true sports car is made for one thin; performance and driving spirit. A sports car has two doors and no back seat. The layout alone tells you that they aren't for anything other than driving for fun. The Viper isn't trying to be anything except the pinnacle of sports car. When you get in a Viper you are completely absorbed in the atmosphere of the beast. You drive a Viper to DRIVE. Its a performance focus play toy as thats what a sports car really is. The Porsche like many other cars today are trying to be more than they should. The Porsche is a great performance car but because of how much use the car has it can't really be defined as a sports car.

so a McLaren P1 is also not a sportscar?

My point was that I do believe a car can be a sportscar and also comfortable etc. And YES people who have actually driven the P1 seems to agree that it´s very comfortable. Same as Porsche 918 Spider that you have to agree is a sportscar/hypercar whatever. So I dont agree with the reporter on this one.

You're an idiot, yet only partially wrong. The SRT Viper IS rubbish. It's hopelessly unrefined, uncomfortable, loud, unpredictable, and far from enjoyable to drive. That said, it is one of the fastest production cars in the world, and has set countless lap records (Nurburgring, Laguna Seca, etc). Only a truly ignorant bigot would argue that it has poor handling/cornering.

His arguments are irrelevant af

Awesome Video and review guys. THIS is Smoking Tire old school kickin it. Thanks

idk man, the fact that anyone can get in the Porsche and do 2.5 kinda turns me away. i think the fun of driving lies in learning how to control the vehicle, and knowing that there is no computer in the way of what you are telling the car to do

Porsche all day every day. It's just a better car.

To me theres two ways you can see this. It's either: I'm an intelligent human being who likes the good stuff, including quality in everything in a car and actual performance, comfort and sophistication, or the other version: I fuck my sister, shoot hamsters., and think Rush Limbaugh is da man. While i'd love to try a Viper for a day (more likely half or a quarter of a day, judging by the reviews out there), i'd never buy it over something proper like a Porsche. No way in hell.

I was waiting for a comparison between a Viper and a 991. These two cars are currently on my top 5 favorite cars list. I saw a white Viper about a week ago for the first time and it was absolutely stunning.

what roads are these cars tested on/?

How come the Porsche had the curtain button on the center dash? Does it really have curtains on the rear windows?

No my friend... the Viper is a super car, not a sports car, what a 911 is indeed... You need 2 put attention on how 2 drive because of that. A Mitsubishi Eclipse is a sports car, a Nissan 370 Z is a sports car, a Pontiac Solstice, BMW Z4 and Mercedes CLK all of them are sports car... but you´re driving a Super car!
