Nauman, from where I come from, people that do this don't last long.

I'm gonna go on a limb and say it's a 360 CS. Or a Viper.

Congrats man! My buddy had a black one at one point, then a lime green with black stripes. Scared the daylights outta me when I tried it-in the rain. He ended up selling for a Z06..

I might be in the minority but I prefer these things stripeless! Post more pics and a review, I'm curious how it compares to the Chevy over time.

And ya, +1 be safe!

I just got home and believe it or not, no ticket. Not even a pullover. Several close calls though.
awesome drive , other than me drinking lots of fluid and having to take.a piss every hour.

I passed several sets of cars more than 4 times. Lol. Wonder what they were thinking.

Couple more pics....



Needs a good clean up...



And I'm fucking exhausted.

Goddam that is sick!

What made you want to get the Viper and sell the Vette? Just see it spontaneously or were you looking for a long time?
