I got a c5 vert vette in my garage, cobra is way more fun, I thought about a viper. Stay away from the earlier ones. They had head gasket problems and there was a recall on them. If it wasn't done, then it can get very $. You won't pay less than 25k for one, unless it is a salvage. But other than that they are sweet looking car. If I get a bigger garage I still may get one, red RT is my favorite.

93-95 vipers were trash and they had problems. Get a c5 z06 or a c6. Or if you got big bucks get the c6 z06. I have seen c6 z06 here in maryland go 11.20 with just slicks and all stock 11.40's. I have been 12.70's in a allstock c6 and it still had alittle more in it. c6 are alot better than c5. I am was looking at a c6 z51 but I have to much going on right now, maybe next year.

I believe it was the 93-95 that had the gasket problems. They were blowing out at about 20k.

Viper is my absolute favorite car, i'd take it over a porsche, ferrari, etc.....guess that comes with being a mopar fan. There's just something about it.
