I would avoid the 1st gen as they had alot of problems from being a new model like most cars do. They were very sparse in the interior and creature comforts area. They were also extreamly hot inside. The 2nd and 3rd gen would be the two I would look at .. more so the 2nd for me personally. The body lines have gotten much better. They pitched the roof up for helmets if you ever want to track or auto cross it. The 1st gen sucked for that. Vipers are GT cars. I have a 65 cobra with IRS and ~600 HP and it handles night and day better then a viper. The viper has much better aero's then the cobra ... the pit fall of all open cockpit cars. The cobra has the aero lines of a elephant with its ears out, lol. Depends on what you want to do with the car. I have alot of buddies with them and they love them. Good luck.
