Gen II's are history for me. Loved the car for a few years but grew tired of it - just looked so dated to me. A classic with amazing styling and giant nuts just no longer to my liking.
I'm also disheartened over the lack of a Gen III coupe. I'm starting to warm to the SRT-10, but I'm not head over heels in love with the car. Still, it's a possibility.
I've toyed with the idea of Ford GT but spending 100 large in juice (aka the right to buy the car) is just plain stupid. A 1500 car build just doesn't justify it. I'm OK with the sticker price, but screw the juice. Besides, the SRT-10 is comparable in performance for ~ 1/2 the price.
Corvettes - A dime a dozen - Z06's included.
Ferrari - I grew up in So. Phila. I just couldn't pull it off.
NSX - No balls, bland and unexciting.
911 Turbo - A gentlemen's car; bad fit.
You get the picture? I'm talking myself out of everything except a Gen III Viper which I want but in a coupe.
So, with all that said, what's a person to do? Hold out for a Gen III coupe? Does anyone know if hell is scheduled to freeze over in the next 6 months?
I just bought a Ducati 999 so I'll be occupied for a couple of months, but just a couple. In the Fall, I'll be chompin at the bit.
DC - I want a Gen III Coupe. Please help!
