    Eh, its a show car. The Viper has never been one to be comfortable in. Previous Vipers used to get hot as heck from the engine.

    Do the pedals adjust instead of the wheel?

    Nope. Pedals are stationary as well.

    In the Miata, which doesn't have this feature either, you know they were on an extreme weight-saving mission, so that car has an excuse (a poor one, but there you go...), but there is no such mission here.

    They just cheaped out.

    Correction, the pedals do adjust. Steering wheel still does not.

    When the Viper first came out, they touted its lack of features. No AC, no windows, no insulation, etc. it was a driver's car & nothing else. Maybe this is their idea to a throw back?

    So you've been trying to find a good seating position without adjusting the pedals, because you didn't know they adjusted. That ability would seem to remove most of your objections here - ?
