Hey,

I like the idea of building the car from the ground up; however, a
neighbour to my parents own a really nice car.  They were looking for
a sports car and have a little bit of money.  They have owned a couple
of Porches.  I was talking to him a year ago about a new car and how
the price of Porches (contrary to what is being said in the media) is
going through the ceiling...anyways I mentioned the old Dodge Charger
that my uncle had and he should look at a restored muscle car.  I saw
his new purchase yesterday....a new Dodge Viper.

Nice!!  It is blue with a hard top and a white stripe down the centre
(old Shelby Cobra colours).  It has the new aluminum V-10 in it and it
sounds increadible (side thrush pipes).  I only heard it and looked at
it...funny it has very poor traction in the winter here so no driving.
Not exactly a Charger but still a nice car.

My poor old Explorer had an inferiority complex...but in this weather
it would blow the doors off that Viper in a 0-60.
