I've been bitten....not looking good

[Kratos]

I've been bitten by "Super Car" fever. My dream car has always been this....












It was discontinued for 3 years, and I thought it was wiped away from the face of the planet. But now it's back, and back for blood. Totally redesigned with 640 naturally aspirated horsepower and an interior designed by Ferrari. But at $100+K, I have to pool some cash together to make it happen. I've already sold 2 of my 5 cars. I was hoping Knight wouldn't be involved in this but it turns out he might be. So my question is, how much is Knight worth.....???
2012 Spyder RS-S
SE-5 Transmission
3000 miles
HMF Exhaust
Green Filter
And the baddest led setup in the land....

[Bob Denman]

So between the Spyder bites and the Viper bites... your wallet is dead!

But the new viper is sharp!

[Bob Denman]

Are you serous about Knight???

[Recluze]

That is a nice looking car. It looks like it is doing 60 sitting still.

[Bob Denman]

Or at least 60 grand...

I went to an 'SRT' track day once (if you're familiar). That was a few years back. They let us drive all the 'SRT's' except the Viper. I was lucky enough to be driven around the race track (somewhere in PA.) in the Viper. The driver taking the turns at 135 mph was something I've not done before; obviously on the straight aways he was doing much more. It was a lot different than going in a straight line at 145 mph (in the winter on wet roads) in my 1970 Challenger, 440 c.i.

They didn't handle all that well on DRY roads with that big lump of engine up front...

Wylie,
You've got gonads of steel!

Wow what an amazing vessil I can't even call it a car, or vehicle. If you do get it, MUST BE IN THAT COLOR ! ! !

Yeah, I know it sounds crazy. And the thought of it puts a pit in my stomach. But my desire for a supercar continues to grow. I'm not sure where this all will end....

[Bob Denman]

Since I have no idea of what your finances look like...
Keep Knight in your hip pocket; only throw him on the pile if the conditions absolutely warrant it at that time.
You've put a lot of yourself into that bike; it'd be a shame to act in haste...

Yeah I know. I'm gonna try to see if I can work around it and do both. I'm definitely not fond of someone else getting credit and glory for my baby.

Good for you if you can make it happen. In 2008 we were particpating in the annual Shelby Dodge club event in Michigan. The club rented the road course at Waterford Hills, and the Chrysler guys were invited. Ralph Gilles brought his personal SRT-10 Viper and ate everything on the track. I have been drooling over these ever since, and the reincarnation of the Viper is awesome! The new body is fantastic! At my age I'm looking to sell off my collector cars for retirement, so go for it if you can!

206 mph top speed...

That new Viper is beautiful. Drool, Drool, Drool

There is one up here that I see every once in awile. It is also red. I don't see it in the winter though, so am guessing that it is a "fair weather" car.

You should hang on to your beautiful if possible. You never get out of them what you put into them when you consider depreciation and the fact that accessories are usually worth 1/2 to none when selling or trading. You know the drill, so will not say more on that.

Good luck in your pursuit of beauty and speed. Keep us posted and like Bob said: Pictures, pictures, pictures.

There is no such thing as a fair weather vehicle, Just fair weather drivers.

[Bob Denman]

Drive it like it belongs to somebody else, and just clean it off when the weather clears!

If you sell your Spyder your title of Ultimate Spyderlover will be up for grabs. I call dibs.

And you better talk to Bob about the cost of insuring that beautiful beast before you lay down $100 Grand. Gotta figure many thousand $$$$ a year??

Other than that I'm insanely jealous! That's my dream car.

Best of luck!

[Bob Denman]

He'll ask...

[boborgera]

He'll ask...

When i spend big bucks for a Vehicle, There's Two things i don't worry about.
How much gas it uses and what it cost to insure.
What my wife has to say,
Now thats what i worry about.

[mcaccamise]

I envy you thats a beautyful car i would also love to have it in my stable,
I recently sold my 06 Z06 Vette and thought i was going to be a miserable sole until the Spyder came into my life and guess what im enjoying the wind and freedom of the and hardly miss the vette, good luck and hope you are able to enjoy both toys.

I'm gonna try my best to keep the Spyder.....not gonna let my title go that easily, lol.

This is not my first walk in the park with 6 figure cars, so I know the deal. I'm actually trying to talk myself out of this itch, but everytime I look at that picture, I get all fuzzy feelings inside, lol.

[Bob Denman]

I think that feeling is spreading among the masses in here...
That might be a six-figure car; but it's got about a twelve-figure look!
