Even though I own one, when I see a viper on the road I get all excited and want to take pictures like its something I've never seen before. I honestly feel the Viper is the most sinister looking vehicle on the road. I love my car!

Sorry guys, i had to vent to someone, and I figured you all would understand!

They do have a unique look about them when they go down the road. Sinister is probably a god way to describe it. I followed Swexlin to a Exotic Show last weekend and could not believe how cool they look on the road. I also got to check out everybody checking his Viper out. I just love looking at the tires from the rear, like a steamroller...

I had a friend tell me that my car looks like a bad asp overgrown matchbox car from our childhood days with those big meat tires tucked underneath!

A couple years ago I was out of town and a red RT/10 passed us. I told the guy driving to catch up so I could get some pics. He was like "You have one in your garage!"

....some people just don't understand!

A couple of weeks ago while driving down a local street, I saw a car coming at me from a few blocks away and thought what in the world is that? I actually started getting jealous because it looked so bad ass. As the car got closer to me I started to smile as I realized it was Timnineside in his matte 99 GTS.

I am sure he was thinking, Damn I should have painted mine RED..

I get that "brotherhood" feeling when I see another viper going down the road, which is extremely rare. My heart picks up a bit and a big smile starts appearing on my face.
These are without a doubt the meanest looking car on the street.

Actually, no. I don't even like taking pictures of my own car. If I could get $45K for my '03 I would sell it.

Wow...talk about a wet blanket.

That's me... Wet blanket because I don't oggle over all Vipers including my own and I really don't take a lot of pictures of them. It is a cool car and I do enjoy driving it, but it's just a freaking car. Oh, and I guess I would take $44K... :D

I hate seeing a viper on the road when im not in mine. Doesn't happen to often because there are not to many around here. I would like to chat with them and see if they are a car guy or just a guy with money and bought it cause he heard it was cool. You know the type. Anyways i was in London a couple months ago walking to a show with the wife and a guys pulls up in an 06 coupe and gets out. I wanted to go up and chat with him for a sec and say that i own one too, but thought he might be like Sure You Do :rolleyes:, so i kept walking and saved us both.
And yes i think they look their best rollin down the street, and thats why i stare because i never get to see mine doing that. ***** driving all the time........NOT

When you have a real passion for something it never gets stale !!! I'm like a little kid when I see another on the road. I love it when our region gets 10 or so cruising down the road together then it's video time so I can watch my "VIPER ****" later !!!

I find myself throwing my neck out to oogle over a Viper driving by here or there. It just never gets old. NEVER!!!! Then again if it is a nice vehicle going by, I find myself oogling over it too. Doesn't matter the make or model, I am a car guy.

When I look at a Viper though, it hits me after that I actually own one. I have owned mine from new for almost 5 years now and I still can't believe it.

I was out last night with the GTO, passed a restaurant and noticed, out of the corner of my eye, a silver Viper parked in front. I pulled a u-turn and went into the parking lot and stared for about 5 minutes from different angles. And then of course......I wanted to immediately go home and get mine out -

Definitely agree with the majority of people so far (that is, everyone but georgethedog). :) It's always great to see another Viper on the road, although it is very rare (except on Woodward Ave. near Detroit).

I also like seeing the reflection of my car in the back of other peoples' car. Car vanity at its finest? Probably. :D

I like it best when i take my car serviceing or dyno ect and see the technician drive it. The car looks ten x kooler when someone else drives it. Only time I realize its somthing special.
