Same thing I said.

Or you can use it as a weekend car, gather up 3,000 dollars more and get another DD instead of the Viper.

*sigh*.. i guess it can't be daily driven... "wth wrong me????"

oh well... i guess i should just hold off and enjoy more of my G..
I guess the stock rt/10 vipers are not that fast compared to fully built vq35 turbo's right...

gdmmit... no functional windows on the viper

Try to conserve, get out of debt. Save up... eventually you'll have money to sell the G, buy a viper AND a daily driver.

My cousin has one that does 0 to 60 in like 3.5. it's plain silly. but i'm 6'3" and it's a pain in the A** to get in and out of.

I agree w/ ur decision ... car nowadays are gonna be crazily fast so that 400+hp shouldn't be so much tempting in the near future ... but if u trade off ur car for that, you might miss some basic gadget in ur car like the power window u mentioned before.... just imagine that u need to scroll down the passenger window just to talk to someone....thats a pita imo...

Run, do not walk in the other direction.

Think about how Vipers are often driven, then imagine that going on for 40K miles.

Add in over ten years of wear and tear.

You better have a fat freaking wallet - not only for gas and insurance, but for repairs.

Nice idea, but I think the reality would be a disappointment.
