    It must be killing these guys that bought these cars to not drive them. They certainly have stronger will power than I'll ever have

    Yeah the world only needs one parked at a museum and there's already one there. Makes no sense to not drive them, cars cost money, yep if you drive it won't be worth as much, same as any car. So what, that's why we all work hard right? We should do a poll of what ACR owners cutoff point is to not want to ever drive them again. Was it when they hit $180K? $200K? $250K? It's ironic the most track worthy factory car ever made, 99% won't see the track due to owners worried about the value. The Porsche guys are embarrassing us, I see 5 GT3RS's at every track event and those are $250K cars. Rarely do I see another Viper on track.

    I think it comes down to 2 two things. Availability of replacement parts and the owner's net worth.

    I find the Pcar guys to be a different breed. And the BMW M drivers are their own breed too. They love to use their cars as intended. I don't have the time to take entire days/weekends for track ventures, but everybody I drive with on weekends knows that my car gets her proper exercise whenever she's out

    us buying an old house on 1.5 acres needing work 4.5 years ago out a huge dent into my Viper racing. Now that we’ve gotten all that under control the scarcity of replacement parts has me questioning if I’ll ever go back to racing more than some autocrosses.

    And then they'll be worried about irreplaceable parts, which likely means that most of these cars will never get driven. Which I think is the most depressing thing of all - one of the greatest street legal track cars being relegated to the role of a garage art piece to circle jerk over when friends visit.

    "Kids, did you know Grandpa used to own a racecar?"

    "Haha, I sure did. I owned a 2017 Dodge Viper GTSR for 4 years! Those were the greatest 5 miles I ever drove. So glad I didn't drive it more than that because I made a killing when I sold it; basically doubled my money!"

    "You owned a racecar and you never drove it???"

    "It was too great of an investment; you kids will understand when you get older."

    "But grandpa, an equal investment in Bitcoin in 2017 would have been worth up to $6 million in 2021. Even World President Musk's Tesla stock would have been worth $1.5 million over the same time period."

    "You spoiled little brats don't know how hard we had it back then!"

    "It was a big liter V10 with a 6-speed manual transmission and an amazing aerodynamics package... the last great analog, street legal racecar of your generation. Sounds like you could have had it pretty great. Sucks to suck, you old piece of shit."

    I saw this car in person about 2 weeks ago at BJ, i was getting my oil changed. Great looking car, it is in new condition. Any buyer will be very happy with it. 300 is a steep ask, but we will see what the market says.

    Are there any Gen V irreplaceable parts?

    I believe there are a few very hard to find parts. How easy is it to get a new hood? Speaker upgrade kits were out of stock for a while. IDK, Maybe it's time to sticky a thread for Parts Scarcity?

    I'd imagine most of them by now. Steering racks are gone. I'm sourcing all the ACR brake parts and they are really hard to find.

    I would think the ACR carbon aero bits are getting to be hard to come by. I thought I remember someone on here saying their splitter had a crack, went in for a warranty replacement, and Dodge basically told them tough luck.

    The great thing about carbon aero bits is that they really can be replaced fairly easily.

    Yeah, it would be much better if we all took them to the track and beat the shit out of them. Do some irreversible mods that suits us and leave them for dead when we are done.

    There is probably a happy place somewhere between locked up in a museum and ‘Ricky racer’.
