Well, should have known it was old, but never saw it on here and we've had a long post on this subject.

Okay, my badd.

But, I have been looking for pictures...so far, no luck.

 

[George Farris]

Is he STILL in the hospital????

 

[Madduc]

He only paid $60,000? What a deal.

 

[SkyBob]

It isn't old news to the person who has never heard it.

Yes, I hear he's been released from the hospital.

Not so sure that Grammer actually owned the car at the accident, I heard it was owned by the studio....

$60,000 is what a new red coupe cost in 1996 'cause I bought one for that too. I drove it for 6 years, put 60,000 miles on it and sold it for $54,000.

A studio would choose to buy a red car!

We always know that red is the fastest......zoom, zoom, zoom

A new red coupe in 96? 1 of 1 edition?

The Viper was a gift to Kelsey from NBC meant to placate him for moving his show up against ABC's Home Improvement

I had a shot at Chris Farley's black (94 or 95) RT/10 after he died....pretty sure his estate was selling it. While owning a "star's" car seemed to be cool, I wasn't crazy about owning a recently dead guy's car. I also wasn't really interested in the now windows deal....I like power windows or at least "real" windows....no offense meant to the earlier RT owners.

And, true, I did not recall reading any posts here that mentioned Kelsey Grammer owning (or at least driving) a Viper.

So, next time I come across something like that, I'll just pass on it...figuring that someone else has come across it before me.

The search button is your friend. I don't need to read about Jenna Jameson and Hulk Hogan many, many years after the fact. Try finding out how OLD the info you have is, then use search button before post something 10 years old and trying to pass it off like new.
