That's what my 58 Year-old son said when he first saw the car: "You've got speakers on the outside?"

I was in my driveway cleaning my wheels when one of my neighbors kids (maybe six years old) walked up and said "sir, I sure like your car. But my mom gets really mad when you start it up"

When I lived in the city, my neighbor said his wife had to be careful to make sure none of the wine glasses in the cabinet were close/touching or they would all "sing" and clink when I backed out of the adjoining driveway. Apparently she didn't mind the adaptation......

Our neighbors down the street have made a similar comment. They say they always know when mom starts her car up because their windows rattle.

Yesterday at a gas station around town, I pulled over to the parking lot to kill some time and watch a rather exciting traffic stop. I was driving the viper of course.
While I was parked a few of the cops began leaving the scene and came to the gas station where I was parked. They were admiring the car and began asking
questions about my car. Before I knew what was going on I had about six individual cop cars around my viper. Needless to say it sorta looked like I was in
trouble to the onlooker. One of the cops asked me how fast it would go, I replied fast enough, next came the question how fast have you gotten it up to? I replied
oh ya know 55 MPH. Being that's the speed limit around our house. I didn't want to implicate myself at all lol. The best part came when the next cop asked me if he could do a doughnut in my car. I laughed and said really dude? Oh well how about NO! Then I told them that it would be really awesome if they let me do a
burnout without writing me a ticket. Before it was all said and done no burn outs or tickets. But I did ask them that if they ever saw my car doing anything inappropriate to politely wave and look the other way.

Went to a country restaurant and ordered some BBQ.

After a while the waitress came over and apologized for the food taking so long.

She said: "The cook is in the parking lot looking at some dumb car."

Damn I can't stand redneck cops, or rednecks humanoids in general. Standing around my car with their boots on...fiddling with a tooth pick in their mouth with one hand and a Pabst Blue Ribbon in the other. Stupidity flowing out of their mouths in between burps. Pointing at the engine with their beer. On the flip side, I had this smug a$$hole wearing doctor scrubs explaining to his effeminate son how the Viper was nothing more than a "redneck Lamborghini". Different perspectives eh?

Well, I guess they both have V10s? The baby Lambos at least.

In the spirit of this thread, lol I took my viper to a dealer to have recall stuff done. While I was finishing up with paperwork inside my husband pulled the car around. The dealer we took it to is a large dealer that also sells chevy. A salesman from the chevrolet side walked by my husband and said "You know I sell corvettes but I would rather have a Viper any day over one of those". :headbang: that's a smart guy. Hahahahahahaha

I was at a car show doing some final touches on detailing. A new z06 backs into a spot across from me. The guy gets out and keeps looking over. I knew it was coming, but didnt expect what came next.

"What year is it?"
"'03"
"Nice car! I hope mine looks that good in 12 years."
"Gotta take care of them."
"These vettes are amazing cars aren't they?"
"What???!!!!!! This is a Viper!!!!"
"Oh!! I wondered why it looked different. I was gonna ask where you got the body kit from."

And then he proceeded to tell me how he plopped down 95k cash and stole his car from the dealer. The rest of his words was a garbled haze. How can anybody mistake a Viper for a Vette??!!!

Funny thing is... All none car guys that pretend to like cars but have half knowledge are the ones that generally make this mistake. I was showing the pics of my Supra and the Viper behind it to a person recently and he asks.. Whose Vette is that? Your story is similar except the dude came out of a Z06... Which makes it even worse for him not to know anything about the previous generation Vettes.

Today I headed to Beaumont in my car, on my way home these punk *** kids started tailgating my viper. To the extreme I couldn't see their headlights behind me. Not wanting to get rear ended I passed the cars in front of me at a high rate of Speed and left their tails behind. Getting closer to home I pulled into a local liquor store to pick up some refreshments :D. While in the store the lady ringing up my sale said"why are those kids touching your car" ***, I collected my stuff and
went outside to handle business:mad:. I immediately asked can I help you? Do you have a problem touching my car? Their reply was about as idiotic as they
looked. "Oh cool are you the lady that smoked us a few miles back? I replied well that depends are you the *** holes that were riding my tail? They said yeah, that
Was us! My initial thoughts of ripping their heads off and stuffing it up their butts was melted away by the comment
That came next, well your car is "purdy", yes he said it redneck style but it's not nearly as purdy as the driver.:lmao: I will take the complement. A kind word
Turned away wrath.

I condensed the story to see the world through my eyes.
