Viper returns
Sounds like Viper is coming back….if they do this right and make it manual, they can’t take my money fast enough

I have always thought the Viper would come back, but not as it was. That said, I can't i.agine it coming back right now. Stallantis is in rough shape, like they'll be lucky to survive the next few years. There's no way Tavares OKd a Viper, he hated America and everything American. So it'd be a brand new program, and I can't believe their finances are in order enough to float a program like that right now.

Interesting. They should only have hybrid and full gas. I don't know why they have to take the plunge and go full electric. I guess enthusiast cars are doomed for the most part unless otherwise proven in the foreseeable future. If they're going to be available, the engines may be downsized and some of the specialty vehicles will be helluva expensive if they are not already.
Mustangs up to 60-65k. Supra and RS3 at 60-70k. God help yu if you want a manual. Just a weird spot at the moment and I’m sure about to get worse.
I’ve got my 18 m7 zo6 I’m never giving up but struggling with the car to put next ot it at the moment.

All cars are getting a little ridiculous if you ask me. The regular C8 is still a great value but overall car values are getting a bit out there. I like the 911 GT3 - at $225k MSRP I’d probably buy one. But good luck getting on there, same thing with GT4 etc..

As to value the c8 is just an incredibly value both the stingray and z06. Mustang is now basically stingray costs. Porsche has gotten beyond ridiculous. And frankly if you look at manuals not much out there to compete other than maybe an m2 consideration.
I love cars but the market has gotten very weird especially if you value manuals. And if not going manual not sure how I don’t end up in a z06

The only thing that I like in the C8 is the e ray, because I think it'd be funny to park it in our "eco friendly" parking spots up front at work.
