Thanks. I was originally looking for a 03 cobra, c5 vette, or a nsx as I was looking to spend $20-$25K. Then my brother called about a local viper for sale for $25k and then I got the idea. I called that one and the tranny was blown, has a salvage title, and was painted with spray paint when fixed and needs a paint job. Needless to say I wasn't interested. I looked around ebay and found this. I didn't think I could find one near my price range but I found it.
The rims are definitly the first thing to go. The car sat most of it's life, only hving 8,xxx miles when I got it, and there are a few cracks in the rear tires. I am most likely going to be purchassing stock chrome rims and tires off a newer viper. The rear tires are 335s and will not be cheap. I don't plan on doing a bunch of burnouts so a decent set of used tires should last me a while.
I just wanted a car where I could have some fun and not have to worry about messing with making it faster. 400 hp and 464 tq in a rear drive should satisfy me for a while.
