Sweet car, but why just why would people really want to buy v10??? Isn't v8 enough? I guess it won't matter if you are filthy rich.

The performance is great...but it can't out run the ugly. The new M6 has the same motor but better looks imho.

I have driven the 03 M5 and that thing is fast, but this one looks a little more fun.

why only 5.0 liters though? Sounds like a waste, the viper is stroked to 8.3 now. I guess they left it at 5.0 to allow room for engine upgrades as it goes through its car life time cycle?

i would like to see the vipers 8.3 rev to 8,5k rpm. the M5 must sound like an F-1 car when it blows by you!

anyways, im sure there were plenty good reason for such a small displacement. For one, a less torquey engine makes for better drivability. Higher revs are always a plus. Lighter in weight is good. I dunno, it’s a freaken F-1 engine in a luxury sedan! Why ask why, just know that its cool.
