not really,the stealth looks just like a 3000gt by mitubishi

 

[DessViperV-10]

heh ill be able to drive my eagle talon by this summer (drivers ed)

 

[Angel O'Death]

i like the stealth. and the 300gt is phat, but the new one is uggggly. as for the talon, i like it as well. i remember when it first came out, seeing those commercials about its "manual auto" tranny. that was pretty kewl

 

[DessViperV-10]

manual auto trannie???

tell me more bro...

 

[Angel O'Death]

yea, it was an auto tranny. but if you pulled the stick back further, there was a plus and minus sign on the sides, and you could shift up or down as you saw fit. i forget wut its called. i'll find a popsci i have that talks about it...

 

[Angel O'Death]

ok the system is a manually shifted automatic, and its called Autostick or Tiptronic (maybe a few other names). its still an auto, except you can choose the gears it goes in. This is not like the new systems found in the MR2 and Modena Spyder F1 which is called "sequential manual transmission" which is actually a manual tranny and all clutchwork etc is done by a computer, and you shift via paddles on wheel or buttons.

 

[DessViperV-10]

hmm my talon is just pure manual....

 

[DessViperV-10]

well i see that the talon was eagles only sportscar...

 

[DessViperV-10]

i went 155 in my talon before...

 

[DessViperV-10]

damn ttone and i shoul build another engine..

 

[BMW POWER]

i know am going to get a lot of stick about this but i have to say it. vipers are slow compared to european cars. i saw a jeremy clarkson video once where he set up a drag race between a:

TVR Cerbera
Porsche 911
Lotus Esprit Turbo
Aston Martin V8 Vantage
Caterham Super Light
Viper GTS

any way the TVR won it and the Viper came last. i mean even the 1.8 Rover engine powered Caterham beat it. dont get me wrong i am a fan of the Viper but i cant believe how badly it got whipped in a straight line.

[DessViperV-10]

thas horse**** the v8 vantage has a heavy ass chassis and gets a 0-60 time of about 5.8 secs........

nope, it was a jeremy clarkson video, ask someone else if they watch him and if they`ve seen that one. the viper came last. sorry
