    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    Oh, Lord no. I have been a fan of the Viper since its introduction in the late 1980s, and have been a fan of them ever since they were released in the early 1990s. I still have two 1/16th diecast models of 1996 and 1997 Dodge Viper GTS cars that my son used to play with whenever he was a child...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    Honestly, I have no idea. The attacks on my career, the attacks on my friends who they know nothing about, the attacks on my son, and the rampant attacks on the three Vipers that I have discussed in great detail are downright absurd from members of a group that is already so small due to the...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    Honestly, it seems pretty clear that this Viper community, for a small section of users, seems full of altruistic individuals who treat users and their cars like **** unless the users bought the cars for $10,000 over retail/sticker price. The hatred and vitriol shown to these cars and my...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    You are correct. I am sorry, man. It was "fiber glass" rather than "carbon fiber". I have been watching way too much Top Gear and listening to Jeremy Clarkson talk about "The caaarrrbbboooonnn fiiiiiibbuurrrrrrr boddddddyyy." My fingers types something that my brain was not thinking.

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    You are correct. I apologize. I typed "carbon fiber", but I entirely intended to type "fiber class". I have been watching too much Top Gear lately. However, the gentleman with the ACR has worked in a body shop for most of his life; he had a small stint in Vietnam, but has worked on cars since...

    Purchasing a theft car is one of the greatest secrets in the automotive industry. The trick is not to purchase cars that need a lot of work, replacement parts, or repair. If you purchase a salvage vehicle, follow my steps below to determine if it is worth purchasing. When I purchase a salvage...

    The 1993 RT/10 Vipers are just not worth what people think they are worth. This is not a knock against you or anything, but the 1993 Viper and the Generation I Vipers are not desirable at this point in automotive history. The second generation Vipers improved on the shortcomings of the...

    '92 Viper (I'm on the hunt)

    I will get back to you as soon as I see one come up. They are a rare year for the Viper, so it will be difficult. Good luck on your side of life; I hope that you get a chance to have a nice 1992 Viper.

    Actually, please refer earlier within this thread whenever I spoke about hyperbole, and I even mentioned that your comment was a joke too. Thank you, sir. If both of our statements were not meant as a joke, I would much sooner take offense to trading a lawn mower to a Viper than comparing one to...

    Again, hyperbole. Definitely hyperbole; the same as the almost zero-turn lawnmower joke.

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    The great aspect of being a Viper owner is that they are all unique, and are all special to their owners. It should not matter what others think, and it should not make any difference other than what the owner thinks. While others will disagree with the opinion of the owner, it does not matter...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    Hyperbole, folks. Hyperbole. Again, if one wants to re-read my posts, I offered many suggestions on how he can sell his car; I gave suggestions when everyone else simply stated that his Viper was priced too much. I offered prices for other Vipers for comparison purposes, I gave a variety of...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    I just wanted to answer the original poster's question regarding why he has not received any bites on his car for sale. He can price it for whatever he likes, and he can wait for offers to come in; please see my post above regarding the different strategies that he could use to sell his car. I...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    Based on my experiences and those who have also posted in this thread, I would suggest that you price your Viper at $30,000 (in the case that it is in a near perfect condition with low miles), and then expect to actually sell it for around $28,000. I hate to break it to you, but in the current...

    Viper for sale why NO Bites??

    I hate to break it to you, but a 1996-2000 Viper GTS can be typically bought for between $33,000 to $40,000. However, savvy individuals who desire Vipers can find excellent deals if one looks in the correct places. My son purchased a 1997 Red Viper GTS: - 30,000 miles - Borla Exhaust -...
