I like the blue idea, my fave color. I am not fond of the black lightning so it may be time for it to go to a new home... I will be looking for a lightly used viper in the coming months... Time for a new toy.

You know as well as me that the old beast would WHOOP that little Lightning.
I'll be honest with you though, I was actually considering Sonic blue. I know, it goes against all my morals to put a Mustang color on a Camaro, but the color is soooo purtty.
In all seriousness, how much do you think it would cost for a full paint job? RCM discount of course.
I'd definitely go for a Viper. My dads been trying to find a 96-2000 GTS. They can be had for $25-30k, but finding one that has a clean history and less than 20k miles is HARD.

My axiom, buy low and sell high. I don't buy expensive clothes, and try to keep my living expenses down too. I have side jobs that will pay for alot of my toys. I work alot, but I have a good time mostly. I won't say I love my job but i like the fringe benefits. I don;t take it easy, and I am busy when the sun is out, and try to sleep sometimes.
The viper is what it is, about as close to a shelby cobra replica without having to build it myself (I would nver buy a replica that someone else built, yuk). I bit rough around the edges, but that is its charm to me. I just want something a bit over the top, and it is more sensible to have the wife with me than on my bike. I should be able to score what I want for 25k or so... Maybe less if I can score a good deal. Should get 16+ out of the lightning, so I am getting there. The bike will cover another 6k or so, and I have some pocket money laying around. Plus I have more rc to sell, just need to organize it (shudders).
The wife has me busy organizing the new house, 100 pictures to hang, shelves to move, wire the tvs and hang them, wire the surround sound, etc... Never enough!

Oh, and if you want a Cobra, I know somebody with one waiting to be built.
Even has a new old stock 427 side oiler to go in it.
