    13 or 14 trade in values

    Ha. Tough to be a seller right now. Buyers market. In time it will stabilize. I test drive every new performance car out there because I'm a car nut. I've owned most exotic brands. I even DD a Maserati. Test drove McLaren and the new lambo Huracan. And I can tell u that in my heart I feel this...

    85k for a GTS

    That's not bad actually. Values have bottomed out. They hit a wall. The sky isn't falling. And in a few years when they stop making them they will start to rise. I hope Ford GT style. That's many years out, if at all. But all brands are going soft. This will be the last hard raw performance car...

    Helped Dodge out to start the quarter !

    Straight line cars are weak. Suspension and engineering matter significantly. It's why a Lotus with little engine and no horsepower zips ahead Esp in the twisties. The new Viper can bend and turn better. Lots of people have died in previous generations. Be safe.

    True. But it's only winter for 1/2 the country. Oh and all of Canada. Yeah Canada gets cold. Lol

    Little experience with manuals. Learning in a Viper.h

    I hadn't driven a manual transmission in 20 years when I bought my new snake. Very user friendly. The clutch pedal is really light. You can adjust them too. Let the clutch out 30% to 50% and you feel the car start to move forward without any gas. Hit the accelerator and slowly take the clutch...

    Helped Dodge out to start the quarter !

    Better engineering and legally mandated traction and stability control helps to avoid the whole suicide thing nowadays. I wouldn't get take the nannies off; they don't ruin the fun. Enjoy. Great time to be a buyer. C7 is everywhere. Nice car but seeing something everywhere would make me feel...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    I like the bells & whistles of the GTS though but I hear ya. It's like putting in a pimped out swimming pool in your backyard. You spend for your enjoyment and don't get that money back when u sell the house. Life is so short u should just get what u want. I can't remember the last time I bought...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    And BTW the month just ended and apparently the numbers are over 100 sales for thus past month. Pretty sure the incentives motivated the buyers. It's a start in the right direction.

    13 or 14 trade in values

    A hh hh. The worst thing that can happen to any product or service: having a supply with no demand. Building cars no one wants with bailout money. Lol. And the few hundred who wanted them sit back and wait 1/2 year or more for their build while other cars no one ordered get pumped out. They...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    I invariably purchase an exotic as second owner. With low miles and extended warranty. Usually for 30% off. This car was one of the few exceptions and the thought process was how well previous generations seemed to hold up. Wow has this been to the contrary. 13-15 is the same car. If the 16...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    Ha. There are exceptions (ford gt, countach) but for the most part you're gonna lose on a car. Even the gain on the others isn't much when u factor in years worth of insurance, taxes, fuel, maintenance etc. A car like this is a toy and meant for fun. If u used it as such and had a great time, u...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    Right. And I'd make space for a second one but for all of the quality control issues you read about. And it's not limited to early builds. Doors popping open, rear glass shattering, horns randomly sounding etc. When I vented these concerns a salesman said well at least your car didn't catch on...

    13 or 14 trade in values

    15k certificate to trade up or get a second one? Psshh. For some guys whom lost 50k in one year? How about a check for that amount? Lol.

    13 or 14 trade in values

    The factory is to blame for putting customer car orders on hold to build dealer cars that no one ordered in the first place. Hundreds of customers waited 1/2 year or more for their custom builds that they paid 6 figures for. While they weren't bring built they saw other non customer cars built...

    Convince Me to Get Viper Over R8, Gallardo, 12C

    I've owned or driven all of the cars u mention. Depends on your objective. Sunday driver? DD? Track toy? Gallardo has a clunky single clutch gear box which is fun for weekends (has mine alost 4 years) but not a realistic daily. Plus it's just been replaced with a newer model. Could totally...

    Need opinions fast!!!! Color combos on 2 viper gts help

    Subjective. I think the car looks better in any color with no stripes at all, personally.

    How is the Viper on driveways or entrances with an incline?

    Most other euro brands come with a front lift system. Just push a button.

    How is the Viper on driveways or entrances with an incline?

    Hill assist what? He wants to know if he'll scrape his nose. The answer is five inches. And TA doesn't change with front areo on the splitter because the lowest part of the front isn't the front lip; it's further back in front of the front wheels. Hope this helps.
