Forgive me if I've blown your mind.



And for the OP- Don't confuse people who don't like your choice in cars with "haters" in its usual ignorant use. It's easy to spot the people who are jealous. Guess what? They aren't the people saying they don't like your car. That's life. You're grown. And you do seem to be taking it quite well.

you are right dave,not everyone is gonna like his car.Hell I saw the viper,and I was like "thats not the best looking one ive seen,but hey,its still admirable for him to have one".But then you have your haters..who drill him with 20 questions about owning one at his age,if his mom and dad helped him,is he still living at home,why didnt he get a cheaper car w/ cheaper insurance.Just Dumbass questions.He wanted a fucking viper,so thats what he bought.

I think you forgot to take your medicine this morning. Serioulsly though, why not drive something like an ls1 corvette for half the money and stop living with your parents, you would still get plenty of attention.

Where are you located? We'll have to take the exotics out for a cruise.

I'm not a big fan of Vipers, but There is no comparison between a Viper and a Vette in the attention category. If attention is what your looking for, then the Viper is the only choice between the two.

By the way, I vote for these rims on just about every car.
