Also, what the hell is with the XTREME CAMERA ANGLEZ in the video? Does the photographer have some birth defect that prevents him from holding the camera steady so we can enjoy the car? Seriously, stop trying to be artsy and deep and just take the goddamn picture.

He was on the Viper boards looking to trade. I was thinking about, especially seeing how nice his is-I always wanted one. But in the end, I couldn't get ride of the Viper. Just going to have to add to the fleet

Didn't have it for very long. Picked it up off a friend of mine because she didn't have the time for it. I drove it as a weekend car for a few years. Car is back in her possession now - says she won't sell it unless its back to me so I've at least got something to look forward to.

BPU+, ++, etc. is a huge bang for the buck.

IMO even "BPU" without pluses are a huge bang for the buck. I got my '95 TT 6sp over 8 yrs ago from the original owner when it had under 15k miles on it and was 100% pure stock. After installing just a downpipe ($200 but now you can get one for $100), catback exhaust of your choice ($400 to $800), a Greddy BCC ($100 new) to eliminate factory boost cut, and a boost controller (good manual bc for $100 but I got a $400 electronic one cause I like gizmos) ...I kept the stock sidemount intercooler and stock intake, my car dyno'd 435rwhp/455rwtq at 20psi on 105 octane. Great car, lot of fun .....BUT not nearly as gorgeous as this one that belonged to Boost Almighty.

Btw, cofirmed that a 21yo guy from Pottville PA now owns this one.

I paraphrase Boost Almighty's statement on that:

"I get my satisfaction out of building a car to the level I want it to be. Then I'm done with it and have to move on to something else"

I'm sure we'll all enjoy seeing what he does next.

If you had a Hennesey Twin Turbo Viper i would 0-200 in under 21 seconds. Only 20 of them were made and not bad for only 200,000K less then some of the exocitcs plus it would be a sleeper
