Nice and fun however, lots of power, but not the most inspiring thing to push hard with, but I guess a Viper is supposed to be able to bite you. I cant remember this part fully, but I think the GF used to burn/scald her ankle a lot on the exhaust pipe as well. In some ways it always felt you were like trying to drive a dart backwards, and the soft top was a pain.
Although like many viper owners there always seemed to be some excuse for parking up and opening up all the doors and the bonnet
.... I don't think the early ones had side exhaust, did they? Maybe that's why you can't quite remember it? LOL. Mine has side exhaust, and it gets VERY VERY hot when you get out.
