    Re: Checking in! Finally purchased my dream car! 2006 Viper

    That made my night. I always like the blue vipers with stripes

    One thing the Viper has always done well is had the look and performance of a supercar without the ridiculous price and insane maintenance/repair costs.

    Just a hunch but I don’t see this vehicle depreciating much, if at all, and possibly appreciating quite a bit over the years.

    Congratulations, now go find some curves and long desolate straights!

    What did you get for mileage on your long trip home?

    Congrats Justin! I’ve always had a soft spot for Vipers to.

    I've always thought they looked like a Peter Brock-penned Shelby Daytona. Not surprising since the inspiration of the car was to be a modern-day "Cobra". Even given a snake name ... by no less than Giorgetto Giugiaro !

    I don't think "depreciation" is even in the vocabularly when speaking of Vipers ... unless it's one in the scrap yard.

    Agree on color. White with "Cunningham racing stripes" (U.S. international racing colors) would have been nice too, if it had been available.

    Beautiful car. Disregard the dislike. I clicked it by accident and can't edit it.

    Thanks guys. Yeah the viper market has gone nuts over the past year. And your absolutely right about the lines. They just have that certain look.

    Believe it or not I was averaging 20-21mpg cruising 80-85mph. 1400rpm in 6th cruising. 3.08 rear gear loafs along on the highway
