I was basically in your shoes. Wait, but I'm also not too keen on taking the depreciation hit for owning it the first few years, so that makes the wait even longer. Perhaps 4-5 years before reasonable used gen Vs are on the used market.
Finally I decided on living today and getting a low...
I bought and assembled a lift in the last few weeks. I can see a DIYer screwing up the install and ending up with an unsafe situation. That being said, I would think a quick walk around the lift would determine if is was unsafe, so I don't know what to say about this guy.
Run away.
I'm...
This reminds me of a Jay Leno article I read a few years back about what cars to collect for future value...
Ironically, I had an Insight.

Nothing special, but I just installed my lift this weekend. I now have the space to fill :drive:
I was able to adjust the opener to stop just short of crushing the TR's top. Still opens almost 6' (9' tall door)
Anyway, that's it. Don't expect it to get much fancier. Perhaps drywall...
Love that 2009 chart. Are there ones like that available for '10 or '08?
I've seen '08 production by color and body, but not to the details of that '09 chart.
Are there any viper techs in that area that would do a pre-purchase inspection for you?
That's probably the only way I'd move forward with the deal given what we know. Even if I was to see the car in person, I don't know if I'd notice everything I'm suppose to.
Heck, even a regular inspection...
When the Viper first came out I was, like many people, very interested but not in a position to afford one. I read all the magazines.
One day I was over at my father's place chatting about cars when his neighbor walked over. Nice lady, drove a Porsche everyday and raced on the weekends...
Sorry if I've not been clear. Probably because I'm a bit uncertain. I do appreciate the help here.
I guess the first question is there anything to be concerned about given the history (3 previous owners) and a possible accident? Seems like several people have answered that question. While...
I'm not sure what is a deal or not. Seems like everything out there is above blue book. It also seems like they are sitting around.
It is at a dealer, and the blue book would put it somewhere in the 63-65 range. I would consider it at 60. Color is good for me.
I've been looking for an '08 coupe and one that has come up on my radar has something interesting in the carfax. I'd like to get some thoughts.
It has had 3 owners. The second one had this:
