Greetings everyone. I have been a long time fan of the NSX-T and currently seeking some thoughts/opinions from you guys.
I currently own 97 Viper RT/10 Blue with white stripes (only 53 made). The car just turned 20,000 miles and in amazing condition. It currently pushes 470 HP to the wheels (basic bolt on's and tune). The car is a weekend blaster and I love it. However, I was recently approached with a great offer for it and would consider selling it if I found another car that is worthy for me to enjoy. If not, I was planning on keeping it and possibly supercharging in the next year.
I know the Viper and the NSX are completely different cars, but how would you compare a supercharged NSX vs a stock Gen II viper or even a supercharged one? I have driven a few NSX's and they are great cars, but I fear I would miss the power of the viper that I have become used to. The viper is a weekend blaster only and never even come close driving it to its limits or tracked. Its more of a weekend cruiser/spirited runs, however, I do enjoy the feeling of boost now and then and feel like im ready to have a supercharged vehicle. Here are a few must haves for any car I would get:
Targa style or a vert
Manual
Something rare/unique
Reliability
Budget: around $50-$55k (including supercharger)
I did some searches but felt that I wanted to get more insights from people who have owned/own a viper. I have read some threads in the past that has debated this topic before, but I felt mine situation is a bit different. Thanks in advance!
BTW, here are some pics of my viper:
