    First Time Gen II GTS Buyer - Need Advice

    If you are serious about thinking of this car as an investment, than you should only be looking at 96 blue/white GTS or 2002 final editions. If you just care about a driver, than a 99 or earlier with the forged pistons would be my suggestion. Also consider an RT10, they're cheaper, lighter...

    The right place to advertise a 96 GTS

    Don't be afraid of Ebay... it casts the widest net. I sold a 99 Viper RT and a classic pickup on ebay in days after months of trying to find a seller via any other means.

    Viper pricing

    when the average person thinks "viper" they think of the gen1/2 style... so that will be the one that keeps going up in value, so even if it seems overpriced now, you'll lose less in depreciation (or gain more in appreciation) if you buy a gen1/2. I sold my superlow mile mint 1999 RT a few...

    2000 GTS tire options ?????

    Agree, I loved my R888's--the only downside is that they were so soft they would leave black marks when parked on hot pavement.

    Any 2002 rt/10 graphite for sale, looking

    Does it need to be a 2002, I have a 1999 black RT for sale with 12.5k miles

    What's this car worth??? rare 97 RT10 (1 of 117)

    It takes a special buyer to appreciate a 97 RT, if you find them you may get mid 30's for it. To the typical viper buyer I'd be expecting upper 20s.

    Whats stock 1999 rt worth?

    I've had a low mileage (12k) 99 RT for sale for a couple months priced in the low to mid 30's.... so I doubt you'll get 30k for your 40k mile car.

    Is there a sticky for Viper shoppers?

    If you're looking to keep the car a long time and are looking for a "classic" than I'd suggest either a 96 b/w GTS or a 2002 final edition. Those are surely to be the most sought after (other than 1st year Gen1's). If you don't want to pony up the cash for one of those, than you shouldn't...

    Factory top rattle

    There will always be rattles, all you can do is adjust the clamps as tightly as possible and turn up the stereo. One thing I've noticed is that when I stored my car with the top off, it would fit much more snugly when I did put it on and rattle less. When it's left on the car all the time it...

    Breaks are squealing...Suggestions Please

    Some of us like the sound of squealing brakes, just like loud exhaust--we associate it with a performance product. ;)

    Where the rubber meets the road

    Those tires are nearly 20 years old, replace them--it's a no brainer. My 99 RT had original tires when I bought it in 2007, they looked great (only 5k miles) and had no rot but they had very poor grip--when finally replaced the tires a few years later the difference was night and day.

    Other than the Viper, what exotic car holds it's value well?

    It's unfair to compare the values of high mileage NSX to a high mileage Viper. The viper market is full of very low mileage cars, which makes the high mileage cars less desirable--this isn't true for the NSX. A fair comparison would be between a low mileage NSX to a low mileage viper, the...

    Breaks are squealing...Suggestions Please

    OEM viper brakes/pads can squeal... that's normal.

    Watch out for the new E15 gasoline.

    I never understood those who are against using foreign oil. Why does it make any strategic sense to use your own natural resources when your potential enemies are willing to sell you there's at a good price?
