Umm, why do you consider a Viper "exotic"? They make quite a few of them, there
are tons available used, new ones list for $67K, which is getting up there but
doesn't even sniff Ferrari pricing. Is it that Dodge commercial that says you
can't get cash back financing on them?

That's life in the Stock classes. Want to buy a '99 C5? How about one of the
first year Z3s?
