Guess I need to post here now?
After a lifetime being a Mustang enthusiast I was able to move up (or over) to a car I used to have a poster of in my room when I was in high school in the early 90's. No...not a Mustang, but a Dodge Viper. The first time I saw the prototype around 1990 I knew someday I would own a Viper. Something about an American hand built sportscar that could tangle with Ferrari and Lamborghini for half the cost really enthralled me. Anyway, after several months of searching I found a 2006 Viper SRT10 Copperhead coupe, one only 51 ever made, with only 15,000 miles. It was not easy to sell the Boss to help offset the cost of the Viper. I loved that car and honestly thought I would retire someday with it in my garage, but I felt this was a rare opportunity to own a truly exotic American icon and I took it. I hope to someday get back into a Mustang and maybe a Cobra to go with the Viper. At this point I only have a 1 car garage and it doesn't make sense to get another Mustang until I can properly shelter it. Hopefully in the next few years the wife and I will get a bigger place with at least a 2 car garage and then I can look into it.
