You guys are forgetting that green was 'in' not too long ago in the 90s. That's an early model Viper, 1st iteration circa early 90s...it still has those awful wheels but awesome leg-burns side exhaust.

Is that a Z8 in the background of the 4th pic? What year is the viper? People who are white trash super heros stuck in the 80's would get that color or people who want to say they own a viper and got a good deal because of the color.

Looks like a Saturn Sky/Pontiac Solistice...the viper is early 90s (first iteration), they continued working on it right until end of production on the mk.1. Green was a classy and popular choice back then. I wonder where all the green cars have disappeared to...

c'mon the car's about 10 years old, of course it looks dated and the terrible wheels are stock.


if the car was only a couple years old, this'd be a legit comment.

When this car was new Geo/Ford and others were still making tons of Teal and light metallic purple cars....

Vipers suck, i hate them with their 550hp. just about the only thing they do well is straight line acceleration, when it comes to anything else, they suck. and it gets spanked on the track by a middle-of-the-road BMW Z4M with half the horsepower.

Dodge = gay

Chevy has the right idea, but the z06 is still trash for everyday driving.

Yes, it's an ugly green and the wheels suck, but I'd take it.
