    I might have to ship myself the exhaust (or just toss it - what's the chances of reusing it?  You can't sell it either as the exhaust seems to be the first part that owners replace.)

    Jeff,


      Congrats!!   :clapping:


    That interior wouldn't be my first choice, but It does make a statement of contrast. You might have a real rare combo there.   :dunno:

    I would wait a while before I made a change. It might grow on you.

    I was waiting to hear from you, MEK.  :)  I wasn't sure how you were going to respond to this one.  After all I believe you started the "Viperless" man thing.  :)

    I appreciate all the support, guys.  I'll feel a lot better when I actually have the car in my possession, but I'm very, very confident.

    I really want to catch a bus to Chicago and drive it home.  It'd be the greatest 8 hours of my life.  The only problem is all the spare parts fitting in the car

    6 days and counting...

    Jeff

      We are counting with you...    :woohoo:   I know what is like as you count down the days till you pick it up.
      Don't spoil that car by dirting it up with spares, there are many options, besides you right foot might get a little heavy and you might need a lighter car.   :burnout:

    Nice car Jeff.     :2thumbs:

    That car in particular seems to be a deal, that was worth making.     Good thing that blue one fell thru ?

    You mean the gray one in Texas?  Yeah - or the red one in Cali that I passed on...


    I think I did very, very well for myself.  I'm not complaining.

    Sweet ride.

    I think in person, you'll find the interior very very nice and agreeable.  I'd keep it.

    Put some silver stripes on it (won't clash w/the interior) and some 20s like this ride:

    THat looks killer, I personally would rather the silver stripes over teh blue, and those wheels look killer.   :jumping:

    I don't see any wheels...  possibly blocked from my work server.

    Silver on Black is cool, but I'm still leaning towards a full repaint- white on Viper Blue.

    Don't worry about it though - it'll be a ways off, and whatever I end up doing, it'll be carefully thought out.  I've wanted a Viper for 15 years - you can be sure I'm going to make it exactly what I want.

    FINALLY got my money.  Sending it to the seller tonight.  He sent a sales contract - VERY formal and neat - allows me to decline the car and get my money back.  So I trust him.
