Dodge dealer did oil & filter change and charged me for 12 quarts. Viper tech said he used 11.5 quarts while my owners manual says it takes 10 quarts with new filter. Adding to the confusion, I believe that the service manual says the car takes 10.5 (or 11?) quarts. :confused:
As my...
Given the slightly greater ease of a thief getting into an SRT, I'm wondering if anyone has done anything creative in the SRT security department? I'm pondering a standard LoJack (vehicle recovery system) plus LoJack's Early Warning (calls your phone & sends you an email if vehicle is moved...
Not sure if this has been posted here already, but the new April issue of C&D has a nice three page spread on the Comp Coupe with several photos. (Couldn't find it on their website yet or I would've posted a link to the story.)
...and a reminder for those with 2000, 2001, and 2002 Vipers:
Sure I should've changed my own oil but didn't---
Went in to "Planet Dodge" last Saturday in Miami, made small talk with service writer and their Viper tech about poor past service experiences at other south Florida 5-star dealers...
Was just quoted $3195 for 3-day Justin Bell Driving School (which sadly switched from Vipers to Z06 a while back.) Thought that the price was definitely on the high side though mighty convenient near me at the Homestead-Miami Speedway. Wondering if increased insurance costs have sent prices thru...

Redesigned Viper hotter, even faster

Just how hot is the new Dodge Viper SRT-10? Well, one national car magazine depicted a couple of eggs and bacon frying on the sills that cover its massive exhaust pipes.
The 2003 Viper roars with...

Selling the Viper as a Dodge will mark a change in Chrysler's branding strategy in...
Anyone in Miami know how we can watch those SRT\'s here?
Anyone have any film or Dodge connections so we can watch some of the SRTs in action this week on the Florida Turnpike in Homestead Thanks, Jeff

New Mobil1: Which viscosity is factory fill in \'02 Vipers?
Noticed that Mobil-1 has been promoting how it is now "reformulated with SuperSyn" and that Mobil-1 10W-30 is now promoted by Mobil for "Higher Mileage Cars."
Any idea which viscosity is factory fill on 2002 Vipers?
FYI, Mobil-1...
MSRP for the SRT has supposedly been announced at $83,795 (including gas guzzler tax) and dealer cost is approx $7,300 less than that (varies slightly by dealer "market adjustment" for local Dodge advertising). Don't know the hold-back % or if there is dealer cash-back but, hey, let your dealer...
May 31st is the last day to get the 10% parts discount at your Dodge dealer and it's also the expiration of the "free" (well, there is a $100 deductible) 7 year/100,000 mile powertrain-only limited warranty offer.
Thumbs up again to George of MGW Ltd for the subtle re-design of their already great shift knob. Now it's even easier to install...virtually idiot-proof (OK, so George was kind enough to answer all of my inane questions anyway). Keep up the great work!
The new shift knob looks great along with...
The www.4adodge.com site refers to the 2001 blue as a "new" color (but doesn't refer to the yellow as new.) Does anyone know if this is darker or lighter (or the same as) the blue previously used a few years ago? Thanks
Though I bought my car locally in Miami, I bought my hardtop-holder and my extended warranty from John Gastman and his staff at Roanoke Motors in Illinois (a VCA sponsor advertiser) and was very pleased with the speed of delivery and their pricing.
