Keep the cobra, it will be cheaper to go faster and the insurance will be cheaper. The Viper I would be afraid of scratching. ---

I think we cleared up this insurance thing already…so people can stop listing that as a reason not to buy the Viper… ---

Mike- Pick the style that suites you. I had a Gen-2, and now a Gen-3. I was attached to the Gen-2, but the Gen-3 got me as a whole. I will not trade back, but I am sure some people would. PS- Stay away from 2000. While it has one of the most desirable colors (Steel Gray) It is also an off-year, No Forged internals \<99, and No ABS \>01. Unless you are THAT hot on that color, stick with 99 or 01/02. PS- Charcoal Metallic from 2002 is one of the hottest colors EVER on a Viper. Very similar to Steel Gray, slightly darker. Very large metal chips in the paint. Also, Red is a deal killer in almost any year. It is the most widely produced color, and thus the most common and least desirable. I advise staying away from it if you are worried about resale down the road. Best resales are found in the other year-specific colors. Lastly, Who ever said he was going to keep the car stock anyway? While I admittedly dont know his plans… A modded Viper is no less impressvive than a modded Cobra, so who cares? Its his car anyway. ---

vipers are cool, never drove in 1 but sat in 1 at a stealership and the front end looked way too long and ghey from the cockpit. That alone would keep me from ever wanting to buy one. Plus I dont like 2 seaters since they have shit for room. Gotta have a backseat 😉 IMO if ur sick of a Cobra already with knowing you have sick parts to go on it, then ull end up getting sick of the viper in a year or 2 also. But its ur choice if it were up 2 me I’d finish up the cobra with the parts I bought for it and see how I feel about it after the season is over. There will be plenty of vipers around for you to buy whenever. I dont make decisions to buy/sell something until I am beyond a doubt conviced that it is what I want to do and that I wont regret doing it later on. IMO u havent given the new setup in the Cobra a chance to win you over. Vipers are Overrated too. ---

Although I’ve never seen your Cobra in person, I’ve seen pics of it and it’s definitely a hott ass car. I’d say install all those go fast goodies you bought, take it for a spin, and THEN make a decision. ---

> [@Choda](#): > > again rt10s are gay as hell, get a GTS I cant agree there… Driving a Friends/customers RT/10 around for a couple weeks is the main reason I decided to trade up from a GTS to an SRT-10. Aside from the goofy tops on the RT/10’s, they are damn cool. And I do have to say that an RT/10 from the back looks a shit load lower and wider than a GTS. Besides… been there done that- there are enough GTS’s in this area already. We need some more RT’s!
