Well, im not selling it in seach of something more practical - just more room inside

 

You should be able to get a 2003/2004 Sl55 for just a little north of $40k.

Yes, or a SRT-10 for around ~45 with some miles on it.

They're very reliable and very fast out of the box. Plenty of room inside and in the trunk or hatch, for a sports car.

Of all the cars I own, the Viper is the most fun overall. Give it the beans in any gear at any speed and it just goes.

 

Definitely more room in the Viper.

 

Brand new G37s? Might keep you in the mood for a GTR!

 

WOW! That car just needs to be lowered and its done. Sweet find...although i have heard that those SL's out of warranty can be deadly on the wallet!

So what year would you recomend? And what are the warrantys like on these? Or wouldnt it have one???

 

Depends on your taste. I like the SRT's, and if you get an 04+, it'd probably still have some warranty left. You also get an extra 50 hp over the older ones.

Other guys like the swoopy 2nd gen's more.

I'd say take both for a spin and see what tickles you.

 

When you said 2nd Gen, I automatically assumed SRT. I guess you consider the 96+ RT's as Second Gen? I would definitely recommend an SRT. Way more refined especially as a Daily Driver.

 

if you miss the vq from the g35, you could always go with the z33.... (except that pretty much any model is a freakkin lemon) and you'd have money left over to mod it. (you can also find used ones that are really nice... dunno if my friend sold his, but he's gone all out on all aspects (suspension, wheels, bbk, kits, interior, ect.) , other than keeping the stock plenum and only vortech'ing it as far as FI goes, for like 35k?) they're quite roomy... I know a dude who's 6'4" who drives one...

 

Yeah. 2nd gen to me means 96-02 RT/10 and GTS.

The SRT-10's (3rd gen) are nicer driving cars, and unlike the earlier roadsters, have meaningful rollover protection. That said, a blue '96 GTS is teh sex and has been on my list of wants for a while.
