That opinion originated from people with very average driving ability (and from people playing Gran Turismo) judging "handling" by what the car feels like to them.
Alot of people aren't used to driving cars where you are down low, and towards the back(the viper has a long hood).
Where as in a Ferrari, you sit alot more forward.
There is a hidden sense of the car pivoting around a certain point. If you're in a Viper that point will be forward of you, and if you're in something else, it will be on or to the rear of you.
It makes for an entirely different driving experience.
