My now rare cars

I am not a huge car buff, but I have found out this week that both of my cars are now considered rare.

user27549_pic733_1260855337First my daily driver is a Dodge Caliber SRT4.  From a registry created on one of the SRT4 forums they have 206 VIN numbers from the 482 produced, so almost half of the cars are registered.  I did a little math and it appears that roughly 8-10% of the cars registered are Sunburst Orange, so will assume on the high side of 10%.  That would make my Caliber SRT4 1 of 48.

  • 2008 production:  482
  • 2009 production:  222
  • Total production:  704

2008 Dodge ViperI have the production numbers for the 2008 Dodge Viper listed below, so according to the chart my car is 1 of 65, but the list here doesn’t show which cars have stripes, so I would guess the Viper is about 1 of 48 as well.

I guess it’s pretty cool if I can keep both of them in great shape for about 20 years.  It will totally suck to try and sell one off in a couple of years as most people won’t want some sort of rare car that parts may be hard to find.   I guess I need to treat them with care and keep them looking good as long as I can.

HERE’s to having 2 cars that are 1 out of 48 in the World.
