Any new to Viper, Gen V owners looking to pickup an older one now?

Out of curiosity.

Pondering the idea of a Gen II, it was the iconic car that got me into cars. Would be fun to have for the occasional drive, IMHO.

Not right away, but perhaps a year or two.

why go backwards to a heavier clutch and death trap with no traction or stability control?

flame suit on...

Exactly what I love about my Gen II.

Because this is sort of the appeal

Why not?

Different tools for different jobs.

They are one of the best bang for the buck exotics. for around $38G you can get a low mileage ( 10,000 or less) GTS and supercharge it.

I have a ROE supercharger on my 1997. The car is a blast to drive.

Driving a gen2 is NOT scarry. Being married is scarry !!

actually one of the reasons I loved the V so much was because to me it looked like a II on roids, and I love the II

Man Card. Yours just expired.

I love my 1970 Chevelle SS 454 for exactly those reasons. And yes, I would like to add a Gen 2 GTS to my collection someday.

What a dumb idea... I mean that would be like wanting an original AC Cobra, or Ferrari Daytona or even as silly as wanting an original Hemi Chally. Ridiculous

All kidding aside the early Vipers have a unique and exciting feel about them and they are actually better occasional drivers than the cars mentioned above. My GTS is going to look great sitting next to my GenV someday.

Funny thing is that in 8 or 10 years both cars will be close in value too...
