    Convince Me to Get Viper Over R8, Gallardo, 12C

    No doubt. It is also nice to hear of someone having gone the opposite way - from G to Viper! The fact that it's half the price is even more cool!

    Best Source on a 14 or Order 15?

    Would $100k ($140k sticker) on a new 13 Launch Blue/White stripes GTS with 300 miles be too much? I figure that is about how much a 15 GTS might be. Would I be an idiot to spend that on 13' launch?

    Yes but isn't Competition Blue the same color?

    Viper Will NO Longer Depreciate

    That is not the main reason GTR's hold value. They were priced in $60's originally. Yet produced in relatively low volumes while slaying everything else. Also it has a huge fan following in the x and millenials. Viper was more $, no where near the same volume of fans. It is disappointing...

    Best Source on a 14 or Order 15?

    How would a 14 GTS be considerably less than a 15 if buying new? Figure they would be about the same no?

    Best Source on a 14 or Order 15?

    So I learned the 15 won't be here until like January. Debating a 14. Who is offering the best deals? I want a blue/white stripe launch style.

    Convince Me to Get Viper Over R8, Gallardo, 12C

    That's too far out. How many changes? I want a blue with white stripes. Do I have no choice but to wait until 2015 or buy a 13 launch?

    Viper Will NO Longer Depreciate

    I guess I'm part of the lot that will wait for 15. Unless a dealer will make a meaningful deal on a 14. When do the 15's come out anyhow?

    Viper Will NO Longer Depreciate

    Well, not entirely but... Not sure if you guys have covered this but clearly (and hopefully) Vipers will not be depreciating very much given the $15k drop. If it went down much more it won't be exotic. My theory is that this $ reduction WILL in fact increase demand thereby reduce...

    Yes have been posting and shopping for some time now. Question - when do the 15's start arriving? If I place order now anyone know typical ballpark?

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Now if only the 15's were available before I change my mind again ;-) When do the 15's hit?

    Convince Me to Get Viper Over R8, Gallardo, 12C

    Gang, First of all I used to have a 98 GTS so I'm not new to Viperland. Got an XKR now and have been planning to move to something more sport for some time now. Bruce has crossed over and I know he's loving it. Initially I thought I MUST try something new and definitely mid-engined as its...

    Finally got around to detailing the TA.

    Your front looks lowered! More pics of quarters and profile!

    Anyone Lowered On Wheels Yet?

    Nice plate yes, but slightly bottom feeding for hand-build Viper no? I mean, yes the C7 is no slouch by any means. And with the deep pockets of GM they have an incredible racing pedigree - heck I've owned a C5 Z06. But for sheer kicks on a plate I would not make like my "exotic" Viper's arch...

    Anyone Lowered On Wheels Yet?

    Good looking car... but 4-wheeling. It will be incredibly good after lowering. Like my XK. Great design by Ian. But those fenders and the taught muscular nature of the car is brought home and becomes gobsmackingly gorgeous after a drop! Viper will simply be nasty. I never got around to...

    Anyone Lowered On Wheels Yet?

    So I'm in the throws of shopping a Gen V to replace my 11' XKR. I hate fender gap and will probably lower it some. Was wondering if anyone has lowered and/or bought wheels yet? Is the suspension adjustable at all or do we need to buy springs?

    Why I’ve chosen the Gen V…a cross-shopper’s perspective

    Bruce, you made a great choice. Saw your post in our XKR forums. Will miss you there. As a former owner of a GTS I know you will love this car. Your post has me considering one as well ;-) You know how I've been bellyaching about wanting a 3rd pedal for some time. Love the sound...

    SRT Coupe, GT-R, 997TT or Aston Vantage

    So the M6 has crept up on the radar. Sound with exhaust is insane and dropped on wheels it looks good. Can't seem to fully pry myself away from the Viper. But at least I know that when I finally choose I did an exhaustive search! The M6 gets worse mpg than Viper however!

    Coil Overs: Anybody Done Them?

    I have definitely heard of folks doing coil-overs and the ride improving. Perhaps the spring rate is still high but the shock rebound is very tight so it controls how rapidly the car comes back up. Not sure. But I can also say that on a 993 911 I bought that already had coil-overs the ride...

    Coil Overs: Anybody Done Them?

    I'm considering a Coupe. However, one of the concerns I have is the ride. When I take the wife out I'd like her to be able to lay her head on the headrest if she's tired and not get it knocked of! Have any of you done coil overs which have improved handling as well as the ride?

    SRT Coupe, GT-R, 997TT or Aston Vantage

    Ok, so I think I'm ruling out the Vantage. I drove an 07 and the steering was actually too heavy. I typically like heavy steering as I loved one of my 93 NSX's which didn't have power steering; as well as my Elise which had none. But for some reason the 07 Vantage felt like the car weighed...
