need your advice fellow g35 drivers.
at the dealership, i found a 1996 Dodge Viper RT10 w/ 40000 miles
its for sale at $29,000- the kelly blue book price is $35,000 ~ish
it comes with a 5 year warranty / 100,000 miles

- But i will be upside down on my trade in. ($4000)
(19k for trade in/ owe 23k)
- my g35 has 62,000 miles and has transmission issues (5thgear)
(and it is out of warranty)
- I can take off my turbo and sell it, and sell my 20' 5zigen rims and sell it too

- DOES ANY ONE THINK ITS WORTH IT/ NOT WORTH IT???

 

btw.. i am 24 years old, not married, but have credit card debt already..
yea, this probably isn't smart to buy the viper, but... its so tempting

 

I say buy it but not unless you have something else to drive. I can tell you from personal experience a viper as a daily driver is not a fun car.

 

probably right... i don't have a second car

 

Dont buy it...

INS and gas is gonna be a killer

 

Sell It! I Want Your Turbo!!

 

Sell him ^ the turbo
Get another turbo
and sell it o me

But on the serious note. Keep the G.

 

getting lots of good advice from all of you..maybe the difference between keeping my G and buying the viper is about $10-15k... that could modify my G to kill vipers instead right?>??

 

I don't know about killing Vipers, but if it were me, I wouldn't do it. Good luck!

 

oh yea,.. btw.. the viper DOES NOT HAVE MOVING WINDOWS !
it has a glass "sliding" window with the soft top
and had a plastic non moving window with the hard top

its not only the speed (415hp) or the 1/4 mile (12.4)
its the CAR that is sooo tempting
no one can really tell the difference between a 2000 and a 1996 right?

 

id say **** it and get the viper.. what color is the viper?

 

+1......My thoughts exactly.

the viper is black with 2 silver stripes in the middle

 

I initially voted for the Viper, but thats a really old car, plus Gas will be a killer and insurance will eat you alive as well

 

Stay away from it!!
