{From just 40 minutes to five days, the 25th Anniversary special-edition Dodge Vipers sold out incredibly fast, insuring their future collectability, said Tim Kuniskis, Head of Passenger Cars Dodge, SRT, Chrysler and FIAT, FCA North America. } And the fools who actually buy them as collectible will schtup them away like the Anniversary Corvettes of years ago. Then when they start coming out for sale, the imaginary prices will go up in smoke like yesterdays trash. Buy the car for reasons, but NOT collectibility.
