Europe Vs North America

[Bassmaniac]

Actually its the Viper who's not a fair match for the Ferrari, considering that its the 2008 model. Only thing that the Scuderia is better at really is the 0-60 acceleration and maybe the handling but thats it. Not saying this just because I'm a viper fan but because you guys seem to be judging these cars just by the looks. I can't argue about each cars looks because thats a matter of taste, but performance is another story.

 

Except that the viper needs a whopping V10 (8.0L if i'm correct:shocked:) while the Ferrari "only" has a 4.3L V8...:thumbsup:

So looking at PURE performance the Viper still looses this one...

Not to mention the power/weight ratio and perhaps more important the handling...:cheeky:

The Ferrari F430 is based on the older 360. It isn't as old as the Viper but itself isn't from scratch(Like the 458)

 

I'll go with the Viper, a lot of power, a proper manual and decent handling, and great looks.

 

You're right, but the Viper is still just another Viper. Granted its a new model but the 430 is a whole new car. It might have similarities to the 360, but all the good stuff from the 360 has been kept and the bad stuff (psycho handling) pretty much removed.

Looks? Looks had nothing to do with my judgement.

 

My judgement had to do with the amount of detail that goes into every single Ferrari. It's simply a much higher class than the Viper will ever be. Have you ever seen how a Ferrari is made?

 

The Viper is a good car but it's just not near as good as any Ferrari in the current lineup.

Right, you're talking about quality then. Okay, I thought you were referring to each cars performance.

 

Well, about that I can't really say much as once again its a matter of taste. Some people like great built cars with excellent interior quality while others prefer raw power, speed and looks. I really do like the Fezza though.

True.... They compete pretty well but in the end the viper has more power and it is faster. I do admit that the Ferrari has much better handling but american supercar handling these days are getting better and better (Ex: Corvette ZR1, Viper ACR)

[Shy Guy]

The Viper's big engine gives at loads of torque(560) and HP at a low RPM(6.2k iirc) Ferrari doesn't have much torque(The 300C SRT8 beats it) big engines give lots of Torque and a good amount of HP at a low RPM.

I wouldn't want to have them, but I'd never ever get a F430, so Viper. Plus, I've always liked American Muscle cars over Italian things anyway :D

[Fridge Magnet Rabbit]

I would have the viper, not because its got the bigger engine or anything but the fact that i find it a more appealing car then the scud. Personally the scud is too overworked but the viper is plain and simple, a mahoosive engine, rear wheel drive and a recognised car design but the scud is waaaaaaaaay too overenginered where EVERY single piece of it is designed to make it go faster, the viper on the other end LOOKS faster and makes it more appealing to me

Exactly, +rep.

[Mr. Bean]

Italian finesse vs. American rawness, i choose Italian finesse

It is for this precise reason that I chose the Viper. Ferraris take themselves way too seriously, whereas the original concept of the Viper (huge truck engine in a sports car body) was really bonkers and thus interesting

[TDU 505]

I'd take neither really.

Or either, then sell it, then buy a 355.

 

 

Never liked any Viper or post 355 Fezza.

[CarMadMike]

I'd take the 430 scud anyday, A) because i'm a brand snob B) You know your buying something very special when you get a ferrari :)

[Who]

i'd go for the scud because it wouldn't have panel gaps big enough to stick fingers into...

*cough*look at the 2 pics posted, the scud has bigger panel gappage on the front bumper then the viper does*cough*

[Shy Guy]

New one, this time its cars that appeared in a TV Show or Movie and ARE popular in it.

 

North America: 1969 Dodge Charger R/T

 

 

Europe: Aston Martin DB5

 

 

I have to say that this is a pretty hard one, I like the Charger and the DB5 a lot. But I'll go with the Charger because I'm sort of a Mopar/Dodge fanboy and I liked that car more than the DB5.

[CarboyZR1]

I prefer the Charger for one reason only: It's MORE MAD!

[TimBud]

Hmmm give me a choice between a 60's supermodel or a 60's olympic shot putter.

 

Easy: DB5. :)

[t.]

DB5 (You must enter 5 or more characters blah blah)

[Andreas¹]

No contest, Charger all the way

[Car Freak]

Definitely Charger. THE coolest, most menacing muscle car from the '60s, and a damn sight cooler than anything on sale today

[T1M]

DB5

 

Better looking and more of a classic Imo.

[Baltoman]

Charger all the way!

[CarMadMike]

DB5, i don't even need to explain why, it's obvious.

[Jacob]

Charger!!! I Own One Lol But Not a Good one lol

But On a Serious Note It Is Much Cooler Its :omg:

[zo6dude]

Charger.
