They’re not all that different, the SRT Viper and Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series. Both are powered by large-capacity engines in vee configuration, and both position the driver and passenger almost on the rear axle. But while
the Viper uses a traditional manual ‘box, the SLS employs a dual clutch transmission. All the difference, right?
American publication MotorTrend pits these pseudo-supercars together in one of its Head2Head videos. These clips, of course, include the obligatory drag race, hot laps around Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway, and the usual on-road stuff.
Can the Viper out-muscle the high-tech SLS?
