Help Me Choose 02 GTS OR 03+ Viper
You might find the '02 FE sells for higher than the '03 to '05 cars . . . condition equal. I was partial to the 1999 since it was the last year of that style with a forged engine, but it depends what you want to do with the car. The 2003 will be more civil, refined, and likely even faster...- lilviv

My 1999 GTS Ownership Experience (Documented)
My friend, this has already occurred. =P I sent the car to service before I took delivery. We did just over $16,000 in work (over 2 months) on it before I could drive it. Now that it's back . . . it's a lot of fun and something really special, for sure. Not "better," just "different." Just...- lilviv

Classic Vipers-- I don't understand it
I personally believe we're at a low point for Viper value, and it should go up from here. My thinking is as follows: 1) The body is something dreams are made of - no other car was made before quite like it or will be again, quite like it. This is one of the reasons (while not in the same...- lilviv

Help . . . New Viper Owner, Trouble. :(
After I let the Battery Tender nurse that battery back to health . . . the battery never gave me trouble again. Stayed healthy for the next 4.5 years until I sold the car. Love these Battery Tenders! On a side note, I had the battery tender fail once a year or two ago . . . and, they happily...- lilviv

Silly Question: Need To Source Catalytic Converters . . . Please Advise . . .
Hello, I had a 1999 Dodge Viper GTS from early 2007 until last week. I ended up chasing my next dream and finding a Ferrari 550 Maranello that I wanted. For the Viper, while I maintained the car extremely well and kept meticulous records on it . . . one thing I never knew was the brand or...- lilviv

A little help please, 2000 RT/10....
I actually was completely unable to get those speakers in the front to work . . . UNTIL, and this was alluded to earlier, I upgraded to RedLine Speaker Fluid. The factory speaker fluid simply ages over time, and it's not part of the regular service schedule . . . so often it goes unchanged. A...- lilviv
