Here goes... First post... I've had my '98 RT-10 for a couple months and all of a sudden I'm the pimpest VIP in town!! Lots of attention due to this being one of *none* I've seen here in Evansville, Indiana.
I literally take mine out 4-5 times a week, trying to get the last few rides before the cold really sets in. I rode a unicycle as a kid, (5' giraffe too) so I'm no stranger to turning heads. But this, this is a whole differnt kettle 'o fish!! It seems I get more 'What is that?'s" than "Oh, a Viper, don't see them, very often!" I really appreciate the little kids, because they are witnessing a live, running, rumbling, Hot Wheels car of their dreams. Some people may think, "look at this rich *****." But honestly, I'm just a simple coal mine surveyor who, like all of you, bought his dream car, and didn't go way out on a limb to own an American classic. It does make me want to stop at a group of kids, and say like Robocop would, "Stay in School! Try harder and one day..."

Great post, owning a viper is very different from all other cars out there. These little kids would remember your car years from now.:2tu:

Definitely part of the experience. Unlike any other car, you have to 'plan' when, where, and in what weather you'll take a drive. After 8+ years with my GTS, my pulse still gets going backing it out of the driveway since I never know what reaction I'll encounter on any given day.
