Nice color choice.

I might have missed it, but did you sell your Viper to that guy in Sweden?

That was all that I was referring to.

I love vipers as much as the next guy, but after I boosted a nonboosted oem car, I learned my lesson.
dude, quit while you are ahead, MOPAR has cams, heads, intake manifolds, ECU's, final drive sets....etc

NISMO has a $17k exhaust and $20k wheels/suspension. oh i forgot the $17k seats.

So did you boost a Viper or are you comparing putting a turbo on a honda to TT'ing a viper?
Parts for both cars are going to be very expensive, but the motors are 2 completely different ways of delivering the power.

Anyways, everytime you get a new car Bat, I sit here and think "Why? the (fill in blank) was sooooo sick!" And then about 3-4 months later you make a post and the new car looks D O P E. Please do me a favor with this one though, keep it for more than a year hahahah jk. Your GTS is definately my favorite new body coupe ever!!!

Wow congrats!!!

Since we all supported you buying the overlays, you should let all of us drive it for a minute.
