God I hate when people sell cars like this for a price like that. I would have given you 27k cash for that car 8 months ago.

How are you enjoying the Viper?

No offense but I too considered the Viper before I bought the NSX. Now the Viper looks really outdated and quite hideous to my eye (dare I say clown shoe).

However, I hope you're really enjoying your Viper. Sounds like you are. Good luck.

i think the viper looks sick. if i had a viper, i would do it just like bat; drop it and put some nice rims on. there is no need for anything else. the power and looks are sufficient. if you sit in one, you'll be amazed. it doesn't feel like a typical american car. if feels tight and it really holds you in.

Interesting. Would be nice to test drive one someday. I've just lost my desire to own one since buying my NSX.

the nsx is nice too. the interior has a nice feel to it also. i like the stitching in the interior. i once drove one but not for more than 10 mph; i was just moving it. it has a very race car feel.

I considered an NSX a while ago as well. Remember the thread I posted regarding whether to get an NSX or Viper? Took me about 4 months before I made my decision!

Both cars have their strong points. For me it boiled down to the Viper being more of something I've never driven before. I'm really enjoying it right now. It's basically going to be the last 2 door I'll ever own.

Thank you guys . I'm not going anywhere. I'm still gonna be a vendor and poster here . And just to clarify, I'm still going to be making Overlays for the Z. I've gotten numerous emails from people asking if I was going to stop making them .

Thanks for the overlays for my Brickyard. They are sick. Other Z owners ask where I get them all the time. At least you will still be around so I can refer them to you. I'm loving your viper! Good luck on the sale of your Z.

You know what I love best about those pix of the Viper? How small those exhaust tips are.

Take that you silly ricer's with your 5" exhaust tips! You really DONT need that crap to go fast!

Wow! Your Viper is looking better & better whenever I see it!

Definitely sad to see you letting go your Z but I would've probably done the same thing in your shoes. +1 on the comment of this looking closer to a Batmobile .

Anyways, if you do decide to part out your Z...I maybe interested in getting your blacked out headlights. Also, is "Charcoal Metallic" the official color of those wheels? Would you happen to have the color code for it? I'm looking into having my wheels coated to a similar color.

Thanks & Good Luck with the sale!

I had the wheels matched up with some vinyl I had, not sure of the color code. The Vinyl is called charcoal metallic.
