What makes the Gen5 worth $100K?

[ViperSmith]

It doesn't matter. He KNOWS people with cool cars, therefore he also owns cool cars by proxy. We should congratulate him on his recent used 2008 Mustang purchase that he mentioned above. I know I'm jealous!

This guy has been trolling the site for years, adds zero value, and just loves telling all of us about who he knows. I actually know a few of the guys he mentions, and they don't even know who he is.

1BADGTS, who are you? Got a name we can look up to see all your automotive industry influence?

If he can get new Vipers for $20,000 below MSRP, why isn't he here selling his services? If he is that good...

That statement is incorrect. He knows a guy that knows a guy that has heard he can get them at $20,000 off. That is a HUGE deal, because it saves him an extra $1,400 in sales tax. We all know sales tax is what really matters.

Theres a few posts out there one of my cars was run by Muscle Mustang and Fast Ford against A Shelby Super Snake .The the thread you refereed was about how hard its to run 10s totally stock on stock tires .Interesting how NINE BALL FORGOT

 

[ACRucrazy]

LOUD NOISES!

 

[MuscleJunkie]

Well if over $100k is too much and you like the looks of the Gen V - maybe a Gen 3 or Gen 4 conversion to Gen 5 is in order

Depending on the timing and execution, I'm sure it could come in for far less.

 

[Jack B]

No disrespect intended, however, 90% of your posts in the Gen V area are off topic, the other 10% are you standing on top of your band box, don't you get tired of beating your chest! If I see your name in a thread, I just avoid it, because I know it has no real content.

Can we get a motion to ban the 1BADCLOWN?

 

[Jack B]

I do not understand why the moderator allows threads to be high jacked by the same individual so often. It is like being in a time machine, no matter what Gen V thread I am in, I end up learning the history of all that is NJ, if that is not bad enough, I then have to read about the repetitious self professed adventures of the thread hijacker.

He didn't really do anything that would justify a ban aside from maybe being annoying and misinformed. Just ignore his posts if they bother you.

 

[Jack B]

Ignore??

1. Look what happened to this thread.- are we on topic.

2. This is one of many, you cannot walk between the rain drops.

3. Many are here to learn, these inane posts waste a lot of time for many.

4 Same dribble repeated again, again and again.

5. This is not the civic forum.

You just registered on this site. He has been here for years, causing the same drama. Do a search on his username, you'll find him arguing about the same crap, nut-swinging the same name-dropped guys, and adding no value to the site. Really just seems to enjoy trolling and stirring the ***.

I still wanna see pics of his garage....

 

[SnakeBitten]

Come on guys lol. No need to ban any body just don't respond to anyone that annoys you. I do it all the time and Im sure others do it to me as well . We are all adults here.

Anyway back on topic. Is any car fully worth its price is a question that can be asked in all seriousness. Cost to make vs cost to the consumer is always skewed. But to me if it gives you the visual, emotional[very important imo], and performance fix in spades that you need, then to the individual it may be worth whatever price they paid.

The answer to he OP's title also heavily bears on ones financial status too. So there is no one answer to satisfy all. IMHO because of the Vipers performance relative to its peers and even those above its class and the exotic and unique nature of its design, I'd say its worth the price of entry even though, at present, I can't afford one.

i would hardly call a large african american woman named shaniqua who was putting the gen 4 engine together on the mega factories show, a craftsman.
