I never knew it gets such crappy gas mileage, even for a super sports car....

8 city 12 highway

Viper with 2 more litres of engine gets 9 city and 21 highway....

That's pretty bad...

I don't think fuel economy or the associated operating costs are of much concern to owners of an Enzo.

My buddy took his enzo in for service and the bill was over 20 grand. He got a brake job and oil change.

Sloth...neither I was implying that...I am not stupid....

The reason I mentioned that was coming from technology standpoint and not financial.....

Just the fact that Crysler guys managed to sqeeze out considerable better gas cosumption out of considerably bigger engine....

I think gear ratio and torque are the reasons of higher MPG for viper vs enzo.

The ebay fees on this will kill the seller. I think the reserve is set to $2M just to make sure.

I just bought a car on ebay and the seller said he paid thousands in fees.

obviously ebay will be used to establish a sale price, then the auction will be cancelled or something.
