Four years ago, after selling some stock, I thought about buying myself a toy (mid-life crisis?)(the young girl toys were not an option)..thought long and hard about a Viper, royal blue with white stripes...then my brain recalled the original ZR's...I was amazed at the affordability of this supercar..looked around and found my '91 #1929 about three hours away..my wife and I took her SUV and picked it up on Mothers Day!, and headed home with the original sawblades mounted with the original tires in her SUV. Following a Haibeck update, the car has been absolutely trouble-free..just touched 18K miles..

So, did she let you drive it home?
