Pretty cool but kind of a waste. How does one store a car that long without long term effects on the cars?

Probably paid $100k each for those. ($200k). Collector Insurance for 21 years, assuming stated value (roughly $15k-$20k), 1 year oil changes, and 5 year full fluid changes (if done), $5k, and to top it off. Loss of investment of capital for 21 years, which is impossible to determine. But even if invensted in MMA's- 1099income tax (no risk of loss), would easily have earned $10k per year (on $200k amount, averaged out over the last 21 years).


So basically, he's got over $400k *******, right there, The way I look at it. He might get $50k a piece for them.

I remember seeing those for sale a while back. Seems like he has some nice toys from the pic.

Might be better off not selling as a pair.

Not sure why everyone is clowning on these two cars. I think it's bad ass that he has not one but two brand new rt10s. True classics and such big part of our viper history. It really would not take much to make them drivable. So what if have to pull the motor and go through it. Who else has such time capsules?

The market on our cars as collectables is pretty pathetic right now , same with most other cars out there ... but it seems to be worse on our cars for some reason ---

Zero market or interest for them. Try again in another 20 years.
