1992 Viper

[Tiepilot]

I have found a 1992 Viper that is for sale with 52 miles on the clock. The car has been stored in a climate controlled environment and is in perfect condition.

Whats this thing worth? I read they were very rare and are bringing big money, any truth to that?

I'd say $45-48k. Need another 10-15 years before they are worth additional $$.

If I had the cash I would buy it! I am 36, just think what it will be worth when I am 60!

The only car that I have seen go up in value already is the 1998 GTS-R. The 92's will have about 10 years to go before they are worth some $$$. Better to invest in something else if you want an investment.

This one was at Barrett-Jackson in January....If you have never been to this event it is incredible; women, cars, cocktails, and women.

Sooooooooooo........

How much is the one you are looking at???????

I'll be your friend if you buy it for me.

Joe, I haven't gotten the owner to commit to a price as of yet that's why I'm curious what everyone here thinks about pricing. Even the window sticker is still attatched to the car, shows $53K.

Slaughter, your friendship is expensive... :lol:

Is this the one out of Chicago? If so, I saw it a couple years ago at the Midwest Zone Rendezvous. Brand new! Didn't know that it was for sale though.
Depending on the price, it would be a great car to own, drive a little, and keep for years!

brandon dodge (florida) has the same car. not sure if its for sale or not.

Sounds like one of those Viper I heard about, the ones that do not need gasoline

What is strange is the Barett Jackson 92 Viper that sold for 47k in January was immediately placed up for sale here in Indy and was resold in March for $43K. Sure was not a good investment for the guy that bought it at the BJ auction. There is a 92 in Ohio with 11K miles for $36.5K. I also think that this would be a very poor investment since the car could not be driven or it would lose its value and the money could be invested in other places that would get you a far greater return (real estate). JMHO.

If you had a car collection and you wanted it, it would be worth having. As an investment, IMO, buy some GE instead.

I would think that it would be worth 20% more than the best price you see any regular, 7k miles or so, gen1 actually selling for/

Thanks for the replies everyone. The car is in Jax Fl and the owner got back with me, he wants the original sticker price plus, upper 50's.

I told him thanks for his time.
