You missed two important parts.

'96-'99 vipers (Both the GTS and RT10) are going for around 25k (+-3k) (cdn), with very low mileage up here, and I want one, bad.

With the way you drive, I'd buy something with a forged steel body, not fibreglass..

Lol, well any vehicle will have problems if you abuse it.

I think I decided im going with a truck for my next vehicle. Its still up in the air whether I want the Avalanche, the Ram 1500, or the newer Tundra. My neighbor has an 05 or 06 Titan in the metalic maroon color. He absolutely loves it. I am waiting to see if they update here in the next year or so, its getting a little long in the tooth....

Those cigarette boats are awesome, but so finicky. We have a lakehouse on Erie and a bunch of our neighbors have them. One of the more famous ones around the great lakes is JAWS. It is acually in the next channel over from us. If it means anything.... the lift that it sits on costs $240,000. Yea. There is another in the channel that is jet engine propelled. When it warms up it sounds like an F16 sitting on the tarmac, hazing jet fumes and all. There is nothing else like it when it takes off. I heard these two tangled on the water one time and they got up to about 140mph and then JAWS walked right away. I also heard the jet one goes to Detroit often, takes him just about a half hour.

I rode on one of the #1 Cigarette boats once. The guy was working out an engine kink and some new props. 95mph scared the ever living fuck out of me. This coming from a guy who did 85 the first time he was on a motorcycle. At one point we did a banked 180 degree turn so fast at such an angle i could have put my hand out and touched the water. We stopped out in the middle of the water and he opened the back end to check the oil consistency, 2 big ole monster V8s. All he said was "Eh..... still not right. These damn new props have me down 8-9mph. We'll get it fixed though...." Wayyyy too fast on water, im used to the pace in this.

A surgeon about a half hour from here has a $750k Cigar boat. I've never been on it (or within a hundred feet of it), but that thing is the meanest looking boat i've ever seen. He traded his sailboat on it (that was another huge, beautiful boat) 2 summers ago.

Nice days in june/july/august, him and his friends like to race around Herron Island (about a mile long), and the sound that comes from them is nothing short of earth shattering.

I dont know the guy, never talked to him, but I do know a student who works at his marina that said a 1300$ fillup lasts him less then 4 hours.

Oh, no doubt. On the Sea Ray it takes about that much to fill up one of the two tanks. BUT, filling both tanks will last half a summer at the rate that the boat is used. The Sea Ray pictured has 2 Caterpiller turbo deisels. So they sip fuel a little better than a gas running Cig boat. I don't want to know how much fuel Mike's boat uses, i'd probably shit a brick. Because he runs his almost every week.

Im no thief, but if I was gonna steal a vehicle/toy for a night, I think that would be the one.

But.. Only because i'd have an Enzo wrecked within blocks.
