Not Ranked
I've had both. The cobra is the winner hands down. I had to get the Viper lemmon lawed and dodge had to buy it back from me for sticker price! Every time it rained, the trunk filled with water and that sucked. Even the defrost metal for the back window rusted. I found out there was a problem when I turned a corner and there was a weird sensation in the handling, then looking in the rear view, I saw a WAVE on the INSIDE of my car splash the side. (I am talking 2 foot deep water here) When it was dry, it was fun. But honesly, the thing does not compare to the SPF. The foot box in the viper was hot and the AC did not touch it. My 427 has a lot more UMPH than the viper had. Handling, about even, maybe a little more to the viper. But, I am not a wild driver most of the time, so I never really pushed the handling of either car. I can say that I would alway want a cobra over the viper... Both were my daily drivers as well (or at least the cobra is when the not raining and above 50 degrees outside). I drove the viper year round..snow and all. the only car I had at the time. Interesting on the snow...but great fun doing snow covered parking lots!
