Trade the 370Z for a 04 Viper SRT10?
 

Feeling a little anxious. I have a 2010 370z that I bought brand new and theres a 04 SRT 10 Viper that I am thinking about trading in for. Good move or bad move? When I race, I drag race. Best 1/4 time in the Z was a 13.8. What would you do if you had a choice, 370 or Viper?

Sorry dude, but Viper all the way. Pending that it is in good shape.

What condition and how many miles? I'd probably have to take the viper too or boost the Z!

Great condition 37k miles

I love vipers.

It's not going to be as daily-driver livable as the Z. It lacks some nice features such as traction control, and the interior is spartan. But as a track toy, it's going to probably be much more fun. You only live once!

Just tough because the Z is the newest model Z out right now and the 2013 Viper is coming out. You know what I mean?

Totally. :werd:

Viper was always a dream car for me when I was little. Didn't dawn on me that I could of bought an older one for the price of the Z lol...

Get the Viper!

damn, thought the 370z forum would be pro 370s lol...not one co-sign yet

If you can afford the gas and insurance - get the Viper. My Z is my daily driver, and gas alone would make the Viper impractical for me. I'm actually regretting getting my 4.08 gears for that reason already.

Well, the Viper is in a different class, performance-wise and most members here are moreenthusiast than fanboy so...

:iagree:

Viper = cool! :tup:
04 = :icon08: hmmmm...

You answered your own question by saying you are a drag racer; which the 370Z was never really meant for.

I would definitely do some research into maintenance and mechanical issues the car might have down the line since it's already an 8 year old car. Also, if this is your only car, someone mentioned driveability as a DD if you nee dot drive a lot. Other than that, for drag racing which you say you do, it's a no contest. Is it a fairly even swap or are you paying anything?
