    Hey guys I know thats it has been a long time since I wrote anything on here....like anyone really cares.......BUT I am looking at finally getting myself into a lambo..
    I am 21 and love the car. I bought the viper from a man outside of Chicago and was just floored by how much power they put down. I love exotics just as much as many of you guys do, but muscle and raw energy is still has a show at the table.
    well I have put a ton of money in the car on top of the heffner tt. I have another 16K in receipts and Jason can vouch that this car is in great shape. by jason I mean Jason Heffner of heffners performance. Most of you already know who he is due to the blue G that is always there...
    Well if it is a gallardo to trade for I was hopeing for a later year.....but I think I want the E-gear. Diablo...the later the better right...Well thanks for reading this if you did....Cameron
    I can always send pics too

    thats what I said but my family just really disagreed....haha who knows.
    I do right now have the house already and have the business up and running well. Soo with the normal work stuff I had to get the 07 S550 and the 95 Nissan skyline to keep kid inside me alive while I deal with all those stiff and boring real estate attorneys......!!!!

    SOOO good buy dangerously fast viper....;) hello lambo!!!!!!!

    IMO it's best to keep a purchase clean and easy, so sell the Viper first and then buy what you want. Trades are too complicated and will limit your options.

    Good luck and you're in for a real treat as owning an Exotic is a whole different kind of ball game :)

    I'd say grab the Diablo, it's just more of a raw experience. I'd say it'd be closer to a Viper than the Gallardo is.

    No never sold. don't know why he has it as sold?
    I told him to pull my Bentley Con't Gt..it was sold by
    Newport Euorpean.They want the TT on consignment also
    but I don't know if I want to give up my frequent drives for
    a consignment situation it took a month to sell the Cont GT.

    I will let roy post the picks and see what else he can come up with and maybe I will be happy with the results. How much is that TT Gallardo going for. I know jason very well due to this viper and love his work. He is an amazing mechanic.....
    I am talking to roy and seeing what is going to be available for right now. Thanks guys and if you wanna help by spreading the word....FEEL FREE ;)

    What color is your S550? My brother just got one about a week ago, he had the choice of either a light blue (?) with tan interior ot Black/black. I think he's crazy for not getting black/black, but surprisingly it looks good. Do you have any pictures?

    It's 800 flywheel hp but the difference is between this and the MONSTER he has is....it hooks and GOES (in a straight line)!!!!


    A stock Gallardo would be a bore to him after the novelty wore off..say 2 weeks considering what he has
    now!

    That is so true! Those Heffners are a monster, but their fault is traction.

    I think that the cars we are talking about are all beautiful.....Good point about me killing myself though. I have had the viper for about a year now......It is about to go into the shop for service and get it touched up on everything to make sure that the next person will be happy.
    I bought the 07 S550 with a Black on Black and got the 22" Maya's. I am not sure how you post pics on here sooo someone let me know and I will do sooo soon. Thanks

    I have to say that with a lot of power like the viper has now...IT DOES GREAT on traction. The tires just need to stay fresh and realize that your not driving a car that really likes to make corners. They weren't made for that.....sooo overall its still pretty fun to do a 70mph burn out next to any import or muscle that thinks it is really fast..that includes those little silly bikes hahahaha.......lets just say that they dont like me much anymore.....;)

    Jeff (AKA YELLOW FEVER) a board member had a Monster Heffner Viper.
    He took a ride with me and what impressed him is how the twin turbo
    put power to the pavement. He said his viper would still be spinnig
    its wheels .. Anyhow I went through the Nitroius/built motor Viper
    thing years ago it was Fun but far from being a Turbo charged Lamborghini.

    I do agree with you on that one.....I think they put a great deal of power actually to the ground. I know that this is not even close to the same thing....but I had a 93 300ZX that was completely done up for show and go..I put about 90k into the car and after all was said and done, at about 500hp daily to the rear/and 700hp at full bar...that car would put down a lot and was fast......but it never hooked up like the vipers do. They really do spin....but its not that bad of a spin....it just shows you that your going I guess...haha
