I never understood the excuse of buying a viper based on future value. It was a give away car. What other giveaway car has had real value? It's like people that talk about their color/stripe combo. The only people that seem to care are the 16 people that own a various combination. You should buy these cars because you love the car. Buying them under some theory it's going to be worth something one day is a joke. If a less than 100 mile 1st edition viper can't fetch a premium over it's original selling cost, what makes you think this would?
