I was driving a blue white and neon yellow taxi coming back from a fare. It was a 4 lane road and there was a little red ricer in front of me about 6 car lengths on my left. We were coming to an intersection where it was a court of apartment buildings on one side and a plaza on the other with a plaza entrance on the right from my perspective. As the little red car goes through the intersection a little blue car turns right in front of me. Same thing, I seen it coming and knew we were going to hit. I cranked the wheel as hard as I could and tried to swing the ass a little so the front might just make it by but i knew it was a long shot. No dice. I took the whole front end off her car. I almost made it as evidenced by the fact that it drove any of the quarter panel that wasn't embedded in the tire into my door jam. I went up the curb and the car came to a stop less than a foot from a cement light post. I tried unsuccessfully to open the driver door and was so mad that when it didn't open I kicked the door hard enough to bend it open so I could get out. I walked onto the road and I have no idea what my face looked but I screamed at her, "what the (expletive) were you doing!" With the most terrified look I've ever seen from another driver she replied, "I didn't see you." With disbelief I looked at my wrecked rolling advertisement and then back at her and screamed back, "They can see me from space!"

Finally, another viper owner helping debunk the myths about vipers. I have an 01 ACR and they really are great cars that are reliable and easy to work on. I’ve been trying to enlighten car enthusiasts on my channel about Vipers.

[@yerboogieman]

I worked on them. I'm a little biased against them. But to each their own.

[@EnthusiastsGarage]

Not going to argue that, all cars have issues. But overall for such a high-performance car it has relatively low maintenance cost compared to European and Japanese car in its class. Some years had issues with head gaskets, radiators, fuel tanks, but most of the problems were relatively minor and could be fixed in your garage if you were decently mechanically inclined. On top of that most of the parts are cheap and easy to get being that it was sort of a parts bin car.

[@donnysan]

I love your channel ❤️

[@davidmopar8446]

[@AlvinBrinson]

Most of the myths about Vipers come from video games, where rear drive high powered cars are nearly impossible to drive due to gamepad physics. Most of the people who say those things have never actually driven a high powered rear drive car in real life, or even any real car in real life, let alone a Viper. The rest of the myths come from professional reviewers, who hold every car to an impossible standard. Caveat: I have never driven a Viper.

[@OrangeSpeedTV]

I grew up with my grandfather owning a 94 viper RT/10. What an awesome car to drive around. You could not drive 2 miles down the road without someone stopping to stare at it in awe. I believe most of the reason I’m into cars today is because of that car.

[@jahimuddin7380]

@@esteemedenergy, Mopar is still a thing.

[@drill2.087]

GetoverYourself lol, I hear it all the time, from people from every facet of car culture.

[@r4bb1t19]

Love this channel. This was one of the top videos I have seen on VinWiki besides anything by Ed. Lol.

[@JamesSmith-sw3nk]

So this is the guy who got the reliable Viper! (Great story). I love the look of the Vipers but I like the everyday drivability of Corvettes more.

[@Courtney1992]

Do a shot every time he says me in my 20s.

[@daevid21]

cdude100 my liver stopped working

[@cozza819]

He's a twat

[@lancairw867]

cdude100 and when he says I’m a race car driver:!!

[@frankiem749]

Don't forget every time he says "give me a break" although you can substitute a kit kat for a shot

[@Courtney1992]

Clearly this guy is nervous.

[@markk3453]

Dude got big balls. I heard the old Gen viper is a handful.

[@AlexLopez-vx3cr]

First gen was supposed to be a pure track car. Didn't even have ac if I remember correctly.

[@jacobcaddarette4131]

I've seen this exact car on my way home from work every few weeks, and around town. Every time I see It I have to take a moment to just look at it. The viper is my all time favorite car and just looking at it makes any bad day better. It's cool knowing the history of that car now too. I never thought I'd know anything about it.

[@MuffinRacing]

Love the "can't keep a good car down" theme. Have a similar sentiment with my first Civic (which isn't a Viper, by any means, but it's still mine)

[@anrouxmatthee2561]

Great story, I'm glad you got her back. I was 7 when when the first Vipers came out, I totally freaked out over the Viper TV show, even tough it was somewhat corny, it still featured my dream car. I have about 200 Viper scale models. Sadly I am now 32 and the chances I'll ever own one seems slim, especially since I live in South Africa, and there is only a hand full around. Looking forward to more great videos.

[@d1specdrifter]

THAT IS ONE GREAT STORY MAN. HAPPY I WATCHED THE WHOLE VIDEO. NICE. ALWAYS REMEMBER, "KEEP MOVING FORWARD."

[@noahstanton4912]

This guy needs to be on here more often, great story

[@konstantin82]

Thats a bad ass story. I owned the exact color 97 Viper. Was my baby. One of the saddest days is watching it leave my driveway after I sold it. Im so happy you got yours back... Great story!

[@getdusty1]

I know what you mean. I have similar stories with my 1988 Olds 88. It was my first brand new car I ever bought. My wife and I and our three girls ages 12 to 8 spent two years in the Arctic (NWT) and when we came home in 1986, we lined things up where we bought this 1988 88. I thought of getting a personalized plate that read "AN8888" but thought, "What if it's a lemon?" I'd had one body job done to it and it looked like it had been dipped in the Dead Sea. Long story short!!! 19 years later, this owner of a one owner car drove it to the salvage yard. Somewhere, I have a photo of the mileage on it when the wreckers took possession of it. Remember, this was in a time when the big three didn't really make cars to last all that long. 704,500 kilometers. Around 437,000 miles. Not too bad for a North American built car by the Big Three. I cried!!

[@Audioscientist]

anybody gonna mention how perfect those downshift noises he made were hahahaha

[@brettchristensen2180]

I read your comment at the exact moment he made them haha

[@mikestous4114]

That was absolutely beautiful. So glad you still have it.

[@apexshinbi638]

Ngl if i hopped in a viper playing thrash, *id leave it on for ambiance*

[@JRC99]

What else would you listen to In a car with a reputation for wanting to kill the driver?!

[@bk_panther_]

Dude is a good teller of stories. Very entertaining!!!

[@mysticanimation22]

Great story! Even Greater car!

[@ChasingDifferentAdventures]

Ever greater Wife said "that car is you, go buy it"

[@Wabeeninc]

Nope

[@doc.voltold4232]

we need a translator for that

[@RobbSouthard]

My Dad is bothered by my LS E30, so I guess I'm doing something right lol

[@tombryan1]

Great story. You managed to tell it without sounding pretentious. On the contrary, sounded authentic.

[@Tpitgr]

It's crazy I always skipped by you guys videos, and just happened to take a look at this one and one other now I cant take my eyes off. The stories are so intriguing.

[@EveKitty08]

I nearly cried when I heard that the lady plowed into that gorgeous Viper... I'm so glad to hear that you're still driving the car and taking great care of it. This car was meant to be driven, I'm sure the car is just as happy to be in your hands as you are!

[@alexhill828]

Like this guy, more stories from him!

[@reedstemen]

Did anybody else notice the perfectly executed finger rage walk performed by Casey? Legend.

[@anthonybundy5262]

Both the car AND your fiancee are keepers 😉

[@Trance_Kitsune]

Super awesome story. Thanks for sharing!

[@hotmojoe2483]

Casey and Ed are probably the two best people on VINWiki

[@vanguardsr368]

I love that shape viper. The best looking one they ever made.

[@Edgerunner197]

the end made me happy because he saved a piece of art (;

[@clintgliford9941]

Last time I was this early, Tavarish wasn't wet.

[@MoJoeRyhsen]

That is the quintessential Viper for me. First gen, coupe, blue with white stripes, and those while wheels looked great. What a beauty.

[@theogohioan1633]

The picture of the Viper and Youngs Market in Laurrelville, OH made me laugh. Finding a local guy on a random KZbin video is priceless.

[@codysmall9550]

Good morning guys :) lmao "Stupid!" I like this guy

[@be020964]

Wow that sucks major !! I have a Challenger SRT8 , older model but its my Dream Car . Will have it til the end . Few and far between are people who still love cars and see them as a thing of beauty … Good for you

[@Ferrari255GTO]

Dude, you won another sub and my most serious respect. hope you still enjoy that V10...

[@CaseyPutsch]

ferrari gto drive it out of town this weekend. Thanks!

[@mikebythesun]

I like stories of people who actually DRIVE these cars and aren’t afraid of putting miles on them.

[@chrisparish885]

They are truly a blast to drive. The car is really raw and one of the last true analog super cars

[@Salty_reviews]

Ugh a Shitbox Versa wrecked a Viper, glad to see you were reunited.

[@adamger12]

That was a great story. Keep the viper man

[@AF-nf4yf]

Holy moly, a 16 year old *MOTHER* ?
