I ordered this car last month. It will be mine in about 2 weeks. It is blk/blk.

I drive this car quite a bit. But mine is in black.

My wife drives this, also in black.

And I drive this primarily to haul things, kid, and his sporting equipment or his friends, or to do shopping. It too is black/black.

Primarily I guess you could say we are an Acura family. I have owned and presently own many cars, and I really like Acura's. We buy new Acura's every two or three years. I plan to keep the latest MDX and give it to my son when he turns 16 (provided he continues to perform well in school and stays on the honor roll)

I bought this car in 2009 (I call it my mid-life crisis, indulgence car) and it is a nice piece of U.S. engineering. I drive this car only in the spring and summer. It's "viper red" w/red/black interior

We also own an 06 Land Rover (white), which I hate because it gets horrible gas mileage.

Um, I won't prod too much, but what do you do again? Author, or something similar I believe you have said (I understand you won't give the specifics due to privacy, which is understandable)?

Nice list Tempus.

How do you like the Viper?

I enjoy it alot. In fact I plan to take it out tomorrow. It's not a car I will ever use for my every day car. It is sheer power. It is very rough to drive at any measurable speed on the highway. Road conditions are too tough really. I have taken it a couple of times to a drag race track nearby. The track length is 1/2 mile, but they really only let you run it 1/4 mile. That has been a lot of fun, but I'd love to find an oval somewhere. I've never had it anywhere near it's top speed of course (202), but I did have it once at 155. (That btw is the fastest I have ever driven in my life, and I was for a split second terrified). I did the 1/4 in 12.1 seconds, and it'll do stopped to 60 in about 3 or 3.5. But if I'm honest, the handling is pretty terrifying. The car doesn't have any kind of electronic stability, so it's your ability and reflexes, and that's pretty scary with over 600 horses under you. When I drive it I feel like what I imagine it would be like to ride an American Bison, a Great White Shark, and a Rhino combined. It's exhilarating, but terrifyingly humbling at the same time.

It really is the most extreme American style sports car. The new one's, unfortunately, do have stability control. It really kinda waters down the spirit of the car. Next thing you know, they'll start putting flappy paddles on the damn things. Dodge Vipers are supposed to kill you, or at least try to.
