Buy a Viper for $90,000 or buy the entire Viper factory for $10 million

[stiggles]

So long as I can have one in correct-hand-drive, then I'll pitch in with a tenner...

It has since been revealed that several group had made offers of up to $35 million but these were before Chrysler?s bankruptcy, though there were reportedly knocked back for having insufficient financing.

Was that us?

 

[Dygear]

[gaasc]

i'm in i want a normal one in black/tan with the gaasc package (optional in the Vipers that we sell)

gaasc package:

- traction control
-actual sound insulation
- soft suspension
-ipod connectivity
-6 speed auto box

if you can get in touch you can call it the ?James may pack?

 

[Yaco]

- traction control

I refer you to the a great quote from Viper007Bond's signature:

... I ask Herb Helbig, vehicle synthesis manager for SRT and a member of the original Team Viper development group since day one, if they'd ever thought of adding traction control. "It comes with two," he says, pointing at my feet. "Learn to use them." Got it.

[GaryC]

Me in too. Automotive Engineer here. Though only in year 2. But I know a few people. And I can rope in my lecturer if you want.

 

[FleeceLINER]

I am so fucking in.

Should we go network to find more investors?

 

[GaryC]

Don't network too widely. We want to keep it as tightly a FG group as possible.

 

[FleeceLINER]

I think a forum-wide announcement would be prudent for the occasion.

 

[JipJopJones]

PMs for everyone and put it on the front page.

What you've just described is the antithesis of a Viper.

Indubitably.

An auto and soft suspension?

Really?

 

[Mr. Nice]

Fiat has now changed all of this.

I'm happy to hear this, but it does shoot down the hopes of finalgear owning the Viper factory and rights.

Indeed. What the viper needs is springs made out of granite, and a rock crusher transmission that actually crushes rocks when you shift.

I'm not kidding, by the way. It's a Viper.
