I have a friend who actually introduced me to someone as "this is chad, he's the rich guy with the Viper".
Chad, you can't be rich and have yellow rims.

FinalED.....I understand your feeling. I'm feeling guilty about owning several Vipers, especially with all the problems in today world. I see Inter-City people that live on Welfare, Eat Twinkies for Breakfast, Drink Sodas with lots of sugar, purchase Cigarettes. I've tried to understand why they are there & i'm talking with John Gastman @ Roanoke Motors about my ACR that i have on order.
Don't feel guilty. Piss off a Liberal, purchase another Viper, be happy & take your baby for a ride.
Is it ok that I ate a **-** in my Viper once? I kind of feel guilty about that...
When I was growing up, we were very poor and I dreamed of owning a sports car when I grew up. It gave me something to set a goal for. I have owned several up to date and have been very blessed in my later years for the opportunities that made it possible to have them. "MOST" people are in control of their lives or at least able to make changes if not happy. Guilt??? No guilt but I do everything I can to help whoever I can whenever I can. I feel if I was not handed a Platinum spoon and I worked hard, made good decisions (mostly! LOL) I deserved it if it was the "responsible" decision. I feel for people who are less fortunate. (refer to above) You can always "JUSTIFY" either decision you make...can't you??? Whether you buy or dont buy! There is not a wrong decision, only you have to live with the one you make!!!! Maybe in a warped way I am giving somebody a dream and a goal to make change to achieve more out of their lives. Something at the end that was a positive thing and a reaction to their actions!!!!! IMO...Owning a Viper? I sold mine in November for several reasons, including guilt. With the pain & suffering in the world, does it bother you to have such a luxury? I always felt that if I were donating funds and time to charity, not allowing the car to change me and if I was sharing it (letting others sit in it, go for rides, etc.) that it was alright. I worry about being a stumbling block to other that may strive for one when not able to afford it.
I have cash to buy any Viper (new or used, preferably low mile GTS), but am battling those inner demons again. I realize this is a personal topic, but I figure there must be other Viper brothers & sisters that go through this... Thanks, Happy Easter, drive safely!
