Seriously? A Viper or a Lotus want to steal your Camaro away from you?

5th_GEN_SS · 01-25-2009, 03:26 PM

i no!! i love the camaro, im a nut.

but the viper is just soooo beautiful...

the lotus is just unique.
its my back up if i couldnt get the viper. lol

lordfriday2 · 01-25-2009, 03:26 PM

... ask anyone that owns either of those vehicles how much it costs for maintance... 4000.00 to replace lotus tires every 10000 miles... good riddance... and the viper... hope you make enough bank for insurance... nothing to be torn about... Camaro all the way

5th_GEN_SS · 01-25-2009, 03:30 PM

i figured maintance wld b pretty expensive.
but it is to be expected with any preformance car.
i thnk im suck on the viper cuz my aunt had one when i was little
and it just grew on me.. funny cuz i hate dodge.

as far as insurance..
insurance is gonna kill me either way im 22 and have 2 accidents lol
opppsss

Blownhotrodder · 01-25-2009, 05:31 PM

Viper.

CommandoSS · 01-25-2009, 05:32 PM

Dude...$63k for a USED car vs. $35k for a NEW car. I wouldn't drop $63k on any car unless I saw it come off of the assembly line.

franknbeans · 01-25-2009, 05:40 PM

490 miles

not bad at all. . . If you have 62k and money for insurance. . . grab the viper.

Plus it seems that car is overpriced. A few minutes looking at the numerous pricing sites list it max at $50k.

Ok, if you've got the money, I could see getting a viper. But really, a lotus, they haven't designed a decent looking car since the espirit.

TheItalianJob · 01-25-2009, 05:47 PM

I know maybe it's not the right place but we have to try to be objective: the viper is so much better than the camaro (if you have the skills to drive it) it has such a great engine! Maybe you won't use it everyday as you would do with the chevy but who cares?
And which lotus are you talking about?

Tal · 01-25-2009, 05:54 PM

These are so different, get your head straight and figure out what you want...

Chocolate Apocalypse · 01-25-2009, 05:55 PM

I think if you're looking for a DD stick with the Camaro. If you're just looking for a toy/weekend warrior, go Viper. Lotus is a chicks car, I dont care if its an Exige, its like driving a souped up Miata.
