Only 7 to be built.

I'm guessing showroom inventory at the end of 2008 will be 7.

2009, 7.

2010...

I like it. Wife says that NM can sell $20 T shirts for #100. I'm guessing a couple of those Vipers are already pre-sold.

You got that right plus they are sandwiched made and crack along the rear seam. ACR wing is the only way to go. Imagine the summer heat reflecting off all that black and trying to make it look clean too. I do hope John builds his sleek looking GT R limited production unit though. It looks awesome and extremely fast.
