um.... You need to explain this.

the porsche (whatever carrera you choose to buy) is absolutely wonderfull in every sense, ride, handling, luxury. Whatever category you choose the Porsche is better, the Viper just has a bigger engine (and even so plenty of Porsches are faster although probably more expensive).

Whatever category? Are you sure about that? I really would like to know where you get your info.
The 2006 Viper smokes a 2007 porsche 911 in acceleration and it's not close. If you match them dollar for dollar the Porsche can't compare to the Viper. Even if you took the most expensive porsche 911 and compared it to the Dodge Viper SRT10 Venom 1000 Twin Turbo it still takes it almost TWICE as long to get to 60 mph. If you go even further and take the fastest porsche the 962 Le Mans which no woman would let her husband drive on the streets (because it is somewhat like a formula 1 car) it still takes a full second longer to reach 60 mph. No porsche, of any kind and any price, can match the dodge viper in acceleration.
The dodge viper also has significantly bigger tires than the Porsche 911. If are going to drive at high speeds that is a huge plus.
The viper also has a much larger wheelbase. Larger wheel base means larger turning radius (-EV for city driving) but it also means a much more stable and smoother ride at high speeds. Seriously, they are completely different animals.
Heck, if you live in LA the Viper gives off about 12 lbs of smog forming pollution per 15K miles vs the Porsche's 40. Not that people care about such things but I'm trying to prove a point.
Another bonus is that if you are tall like me, the viper is a much more comfortable vehicle to sit in.
So, what were you saying about any category?
