I want to buy a viper, need some info

I hope there are some viper owners here that could give me some insight into this car. I've wanted a viper since I was 17 (26 now), but I knew I could never afford one. Well, now with the promotion I've recently landed, my goal is to purchase one at or before I turn 30.

I'm curious as to what type of scheduled maintenace is for the viper, and the cost. example: my current car needs maintenance every 60k, which is about $1000, and ever 120k the oil pump needs to be done.

Also, I've been told that doing the spark plugs is expensive as you have to pull the motor to get to some of the plugs. I'm curious as to if that is true.

The color scheme that I would want for my viper would be the blue with white or silver double pin stripes. I think that's my #1 choice right now. Even white with blue double pin strips would look good. I've been on autotrader and cars.com and barely see any blue vipers for sale, but alot of red and black. Was blue an uncommon color for the vipers? Did they make vipers in blue every year, or only certain years?

Thanks.
