>>17542661
You can get a high mileage one for $10k most places.

>>17542742
Show me a single 10k Viper please.

Because it's not insanely cheap, probably. It's still what, $25-$30k for one that's in actually good condition?

>>17542755
25-30k for an 8L v10 is bananas
lambo with the same specs would go for 100k

It has tires unique to the Viper. So extremely rare to find any and expensive. The doors are electronic. This owner said the wires severed from use and had to buy a new upgraded wire harness to avoid any future Dodge tier issues. Do any damage to the body and consider it totaled, the hood probably costs as must as the car. Because of it's shape there will never be any aftermarket.

Because I dont want to fucking die

Vette is already more than I need and it's cheaper.

Rare but they're out there if you're lucky. You can get one in decent condition for ~20-30k, The same as a 200hp 86.

>>17542772
The roadsters have a noodle chassis and actually terrible aerodynamics. Only the hardtops are good for performance. The first generation has shit everything. You basically are only paying for the engine with a complimentary body with wheels.

Car guys get hooked up with good deals. It wasn't even roadworthy for $10k. He had to put an additional $10k worth of work all by himself. Would've been more if he wasn't a mechanic/body guy.

Literal god machines

It's my dream to own one.

It does look great and has a manly interior, but it's unreliable, expensive to own, unrefined, it actively wants to kill you, and with "only" 400bhp you can get something newer and more affordable.

>>17542851
The 10k Viper is going to be the summer maymay of 2017. I see the writing on the wall already.

>>17542853
They start at about $25k for a decent one which is barely more than most new shitboxes. If you have good credit you'd have no trouble getting a loan below 3% on one.

The mechanicals on that car weren't that expensive to fix. I don't know why the guy tried to unfuck the body when he'll put it into a wall eventually. It was easily roadworthy when he bought it.

>>17542656
Every underage faggot on this board talks about this thing as if it gives them /o/ cred.

>>17542873
Unless you know of some magical credit union that doesn't consider age of vehicle, you would be very hard pressed to find one that will finance a 20 year old vehicle at 3 percent. That is a lot of risk.

>>17542873
More like 5-7% as a personal loan even with excellent credit.

They aren't going to lean a loan against a 20 year old supercar.

These are hardly that affordable. Neat cars hands down.

For $13k you can buy a 350hp C5 corvette with 50/50 weight distribution and over 25mpg on the highway, basically the same performance.

$20k can get you a Porsche 996, a 400hp Z06 or maybe even a really used C6.

>Lightstream
it isn't an auto loan though. Lightstream considers it an "asset loan" which means they have a lien on your asset, not the vehicle.

Lightstream is a weird company, the only auto loan company in non-title holding states that will allow you to keep the title, because it's not a car loan.
>t. Works in auto refi

>>17542992
It depends on what sort of loan you get with them, in my case, they have a lien on the vehicle, they have the title.

>>17543028
I have worked with Lightstream a few times. For the loan on something like a viper, that's what it usually is.

They're unlike any lenders I have experienced of the ones I deal with daily.

>>17542886
I'm 25 you stupid nigger and I asked about it because I see dumb fucks on here dropping 30k+ on piece of shit Miata RFs or subarus or type Rs when they could be buying 600bhp v10 God machines for the same price if not less. These start right around $25k for an absolute beautiful condition (2001 with 30k miles, 1994 with 22k miles, etc)

>>17542822
3rd gen Vipers were actually built from the ground up to be roadsters, so the coupes are heavier and not that much stiffer.

Have you ever sat in 25 year old supercars? They were all shitboxes held together by glue and prayers. The NSX and F1 were really the exceptions

>>17543037
I know a lot of the loans they offer are unsecured and that might be what you're referring too. From my research prior to using them, whether they offer you a secured or unsecured loan depends on the length of your credit history. At the time my history was only a few years old so I have a secured loan.

But you can't just buy a "shitty one" for 20k. You're gonna need to do another 30k restoring the fucking thing, because half that shit they don't make cheap and Chinese. And even then you have like a 2000 Viper that only barely runs. For 50k.

>>17543169
Being fast isn't measured by track time. What matters is 0-60 and quarter mile time. To be fast around a track you need a good driver. To be fast down a strip, all you need is someone who knows when to shift if needed.

>>17543398

I like the Corvette a lot more than the FD3S, way more reliable and better sounding engine too. Also, to call these cars ''cheap knockoff'' is very silly, since both are clearly cars inspired in the original, Lancia Stratos, Italian sportcars Aestheticism. Japan didn't come up with that design language, neither did the US.

>>17544034
>Lancia Stratos
Lmao I want what you're smoking. Not much resemblance there buddy.

>>17544034
More reliable yeah but the corvette sounds like a truck and handles like dogshit. I've driven them before and I know this. I've also driven an fd. I own an fd now. Fuck corvettes

>>17544255

Trace the sport car line range aesthetics through the years, and you'll see what I mean. It is a clear evolution of the original Italian car designs. Same goes for MR2, NSX, 240sx...


About the only other clear and unique car design language belongs to the Americans and their classic Muscle cars. desu.
