They had 2 Vipers in the showroom a R/T10 and a GTS they were sweet. The sales manager said he would sell either one for 10k under invoice he needed to get them off the lot.

The GTS has a 4 point harness in it out of the factory. It also had the same BBK rims I have on my Mustang. I made a comment to a sales man about the rims being the same and he made some wise ass comment like "yeah but can your stang rn the 1/4 in 9 seconds" I simply replied no it only cost 1/4 the price of the viper BUT with about 10k more I can. Dork! Okay I didn't say the dork part to him.

If you want a cool car sooner there's a Porsche 944 for sale on S. Patrick at a gas station/mechanic place right before Patrick for 3,300, I think. Of course, it's quality, and price of repairs, is questionable for that price.

Yeah, but a Mustang will never turn as many heads as a Viper, so that's what you're paying for. And, of course, the sweet V-10.

Mustang is stick RX-7 is stick I wanted something that shifted its self for a change.

No need for stick + as a work truck its easier not to have to shift. Some times I am driving w/ my knee and have cel phone in one and writing w/ other. Real pain in a manual.

sales man to jim-"you just had to go and remind me didnt you!"

Jim to sales man-"life wouldnt be complete if i hadnt!"

It's kinda rare to have V-8 trucks with sticks, I think. Heck, even the Lightning has an Auto.

That is not a bad price for that car. Is it a turbo?? They are mean cars over 200 hp out of factory.

I've never stopped to check it out. I just see the price in the window as I drive by. Looks like it's in good condition, though. But for that amount, I imagine it has no turbo. Of course, noting is stopping someone from slapping one in there.

Hey man, with the exception of the high end 'stangs, I Viper will always look way cooler. Unless it has altezzas, in which I will savagely beat the owner, and take the car myself, removing the offending items.

That would be cool. Also should have them install a better brace for your battery. In fact, I should look at having that done, too.

Yep, just like I'm doing. Hope there's more than one SVO for sale in this area, though. I know you're gonna beat me to it money wise. If I have to go buy an import cause you bought the last SVO for sale within 500 miles of me, I'm gonna be mad.

If someone does, we'll go find the guy and "reclaim" it from him. Then we'll figure out what to do with it from there.
