^ If the vette engineer was dumb enough to route the exhaust somewhere that a person has to constantly touch to get into and out of the car just to have flashy side pipes, then maybe. I like the Viper, even respect what dodge has done with it, but when you tried to classify it as a luxury vehicle I almost fell out of my chair laughing. It’s loud, it’s crude, and the engineering of that exhaust makes you question if they were thinking about anything but stuffing a huge motor in a sports coupe. Basically everything a fast toy should be. Minus the stock oil plan that causes blown motors at track days. That’s 100% garbage in a car that is more at home on a track than the street. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/ls1-ls1/35284)._
