Re: 08-09 VIPERs (inc ACRs) at INVOICE 08 Viper Blue/Black Stripes Conv. 69995 30 mi
These prices (new and used) just through further creed to the fact the Viper will be completely dead at the end of 09'. It is a complete liquidation for the dealers at this point. Don't care what anyone says, only a completely 100% new and modern Viper will reaffirm the brand. Don't see it coming anytime soon, not even Tata will be able to save it.
If I was looking to get into a Viper, this would be the time because of the deals, but the hit on the depreciation of these GEN4 cars is pretty ridiculous. Last time I checked, the calendar just jumped over to 09'. Better off putting the money into a 1996/1997 Blue GTS or later (only 100 made) GTSR as these are the only ones holding their value well. No real drop at all. That is the way it should be.
The deals out there for new owners, but from an existing owner's point of view it is extremely diasappointing.
