I would buy it if I had the money, but with gas prices right now and that car having 10 cylinders its not really going to help much.

With that price range you can get a nice used NSX...mmm

The Viper has always been one of my dream cars, the GTS especially.
The price is really good so if you want it, go for it.

i can't say i know much about the depreciation of vipers and what it would be worth, but if its something you've always dreamed of, snap that puppy up and give it a new home quick!

That's a very good price for a 95 Viper. I've just checked with Manheim and its current average price at an auction is $34,000. The only downside, is that Viper owners pay the highest insurance premiums in the country and i would assume its the same in Canada.

I hate american cars as well. Acura NSX does nothing for me though. Although I don't race, the Viper is sweet. I'll even take a viper over a 911.

The Viper is faster and looks better. That's enough for me.

The Dodge Viper has one of the best resale values out there so this sounds like a good deal
especially with the low mileage.

Thats a good deal, however, keep in mind that this is not a very daily-driveable type car, while that NSX is. In 95, this thing still has those plastic zip-up "windows."
