We were heading to Bellingham, Washington and we stopped at an AM/PM on the way. We pulled into the parking lot and there it was...an '03 Viper! The very first one i've seen! There isnt a whole lot of Vipers in Washington so at that point I think I was in heaven! I talked to the owner for a few minutes and he said he was on his way to a Viper Rally/Viper show in Victoria BC? Anyone know about it? He opened up the hood and as I was staring in awe at the V10 here pulls up an Enzo! At that point I wasnt sure whether I should pass out or crap my pants. Or both. As he got out of the car the words "Holy shit" automaticly came out of my mouth.

The guy in the Enzo was headed to the same show. I'm only 15 years old and neither one of the guys would let me sit in their cars. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I've been a Viper fan since the first year and plan on doing whatever I can to own one. I just cant imagine how incredible the feeling is to actually own a Viper. I was consumed with happiness inside when I walked up to that Viper. I dont think I've ever been so happy in my life. And when the Enzo pulled up well....I can't say in words how spotting both these cars together made my day. I wish you all to have as much fun in your Vipers as you can!! and drive safely! haha...yeah right. :thumb:
Dude, that kicks ass! What I would do to be able to see an Enzo in person. Its one of my favorite cars. What color was it and what interior did it have, tan, black?
I got to see my first 2 SRT's about 2 months ago. Red and black. They do look better in person but, they do it for me like the GEN 1 AND 2's do. Thats really sucks that neither of them would let you sit in them. Actually thats pretty lame of them. I know if I woned one of either, I would have let you or anyone else for that matter sit in it. Oh well, atleast you got to see both.
By the way, [img]/images/graemlins/flipa.gif[/img]!! Thats for my jealousy. [img]/images/graemlins/supergrin.gif[/img]

Benzam...that just plain SUCKS! Too bad some of us weren't there! Not only would you get to sit but you'd get a ride. I just HATE it when I read something like that. Screw 'em both! If you ever get out east....you've got a ride waiting! :thumb:

See, now THATS how those two asshat's should have been. City, your a great example of how a Viper (exotic car) owner should be. [img]/images/graemlins/applause.gif[/img] Im going to stick to my word and promise to be just like that when I get my Viper.
It did kick ass!! The Enzo was red with black interior. You're definetly right that they look a lot better in person. I've been snooping around these Viper forums for a couple of years now checking out pictures and info on the Viper. I'm even to the point of seeing how much the insurance and things are on 'em so I can get ready for the bills. I just can't WAIT to actually be able to own my own Viper. They are truly AWESOME cars!
I've never sat in a Viper before. None the less got to ride in one. I personally don't think I could handle it. lol. It'd all seem to good to be true. I began loving the Viper when I was 5 years old. Which was in '92..the first production year of it. My dad got me a poster of it, from then on I've spent most of my time reading up on the Viper and learning about it. Between those two cars I would've tooken the Viper. The guy in the Enzo kept looking at me weird because I wasnt really paying much attention to the Enzo..let alone it being extremely rare and insanely expensive. I had both eyes on the Viper. It does suck that neither one of them let me sit in their cars. And when the day comes that I own my own Viper i'll be sitting in it whenever I get a chance and looking back in my head at the day that guy didnt let me sit in his as I talk to myself cussing at him. I dont travel much City..so you'll have to come here. lol. This is another reason why I love being on this forum. It's guys like you that give me faith again. Thanks!!
OK Brian. Let me see if we've got someone around here that lives in your area. Maybe I can drum up a ride for ya. I'm going to post in the anything goes area.
Being a proud Viper owner, I'm never above giving someone a quick ride, time permitting. It's kinda like being a celebrity (It comes with the territory). If you wanna be a snob about owning one of the most popular cars on the planet, then leave it in the garage under a cover!!!!! I was out one night and a 2002 GTS pulled in. I didn't have my car with me, and the owner wouldn't even talk to me when I approached him to say how nice his ride was. My wife and I laughed our asses off. Note to all Viper owners: "Owning these cars is the stuff most peoples dreams are made of: Don't forget it." Benzam, if you ever find yourself in Southern Ontario, I'll be glad to take you for a rip

I just posted in the Anything Goes Forum, but i'll post here too. Richland is located in the South East part of Washington, near Oregon. It's part of the Tri-Cities. Richland is about 200 miles from Seattle.
Emo are you serious? Man you're my hero! Do I have to go to Seattle? Or are you coming here? School starts August 28th or 29th here so unless you can make it here on a weekend during school it'll have to be some time before that. I'll get back to you on it. Thanks again!!
i am not trying to be a dick, or rain on your parade....but being 200 miles away, i think you should attempt to make arrangements to go up there. good luck in your hunt for a ride, i wish i could help out. you sound like a good kid, keep it up......
I'm leave for Maui on Aug.18th so I can come out to Richland before that,weekday/weekend whatever. Let me know
I'm free until then.After the 18th I'm gone for good.
You're not in anyway trying to be a dick. That's kind of how I saw it as well. Someone driving 200 miles just to give me a ride is a bit much. Like I said, if I ever get a chance to head to Seattle I'll look Emo up!

haha a "good kid".....why don't you set him on your knee and tell him a good story or two....oh wait, that won't be your knee! [img]/images/graemlins/puke.gif[/img]
