Does anyone spend this kind of money on their Vipers?
I spend around $600 annually, $1600 if I need new tires. Where do they get 10K from????

I was just thinking the same thing as I saw that on Yahoo. I had already copied the link about to paste it on here. HA. The Viper is so basic its not even funny. The $10k a year must include wrecking it or something. HA

Are upgrades considered maintenance? I think it has become required that everyone have some form of forced induction, or a total bottom-to-top all motor build in their Viper.
I beleive it

Our rear tires, Oil changes are worth more than a honda square element. What I love is we dont break down, but our maintenance is through the roof. Darn Synthetic oil and having HP! Next is comparison to a prius! "Less oil used"
