Went out with the wife a bit today, stopped at Costco came, out and a car was parked behind mine with everyone in the car looking at it, all the usual questions, How much did it cost? What year is it? How fast will it go. Left there and went to Bravos to eat. On the way at a stop sign 2 guys honked next to us at the light and wanted to know if I would rev the car for them, so I let them have a taste of the Corsas. Got to Bravos, ate and came out to find several people looking through the windows of the car! Damn, I love Vipers!!!!

I hate it when I get asked, "how much money you got?"....always asked that when people find out, one way or another, that my father is a doctor.

heh! taste of the corsa? Just kidding! All the corsa systems I have heard have been pretty quiet. But think I have lost my hearing from my car being loud.

Sounds like you had fun!

Still trying to figure out, what good is a Viper at a Costco. :laugh:

Definately love the attention these cars get. Just the other day I was walking across the parking lot and I saw people pointing at my car and saying there's the Viper!!! Mind you this was at a very large car event and there were literally thousands of cars in that lot. Oh yeah!!!

I always keep matchbox/hotwheels Vipers in the car for those magic "kid moments". You would be amazed as to the smiles you get when you hand 'em the miniature Viper.... and the parents are overwhelmed by the generosity!

Had two opps during the Orange County Chopper run to make those kids smile! Great fun!

Joseph, what a very cool idea. Think I'll try that. I had some kid going nuts, running around my car (with his Mom chasing him) yelling, "Look Mom, its the batmobile, its the batmobile!!" and of course grinning ear to ear. A mini Viper would have been perfect.

The other good idea for those magical kid moments. Keep a polaroid camera on hand. get them in the drivers seat and snap a picture. You might just change someones life.
