Yeah, Z is def not a drag car unless you boos tit maybe. Either way, it wasn't designed or intended to be a drag car so that won't be its strength.

Interesting trade option

Any pics of this viper?

Not a daily driver, had my Z for since Feb 2010 and just hit 13k miles. Weekend car in mind.

Well, if it's not the DD, won't become a money pit, and is better for your interests than the Z, go for it. And post pics when you do.

Yeah, what is the cost of repairs / maintenance on that beast?

Looks great!!! Interior :barf: I would keep in mind that you'll be getting a car almost a decade old for the price of a 2010 Z. That viper does look very clean.

This will be an interesting trade. Vipers are nothing but power.

I talked to a few guys on the viper forums. For the most part maintenance cost is not that expensive at all. They did mention that aftermarket parts are extremely expensive due to a small market of buyers. Oddly enough, I called my insurance company to get a quote on that VIN. The Viper is $60 cheaper a month than what I pay currently on the 370z.

WHAT!? :rofl2:

joestew1985 03-09-2012 07:23 PM

yup, surprising but very true.

Viper's always had the WORST interior of any high end sports cars...

joestew1985 03-09-2012 07:26 PM

I definitely agree, and they dont have traction control. For some reason all the negative things about the Viper make it more attractive to me. I guess I like the rawness of the V10. Its definitely not for beginners.

Cyberium 03-09-2012 07:29 PM

Yeah, be careful. I remember watching some car show when some old guy brought his new Viper to get worked on and had some dvd players or some crap installed and then when he left, he went to show off and peel out and ended up spinning out and in a ditch. Totally ruined the car lol

Powerful car set on killing you for sure - would definitely go through driving school if I had a car that powerful. My brother-in-law almost wiped out in his new Z06 trying to showoff in NOLA. He did an S figure before regaining control - he dropped his SC plans for the car after that incident :icon18:
