    Major crash at Road America

    Two Rumors: Both involve the pace car going too fast, and the back of the pack trying to catch up. 1) They did not waive green, lead car and front of pack slowed up. Back of pack was racing to catch pace car hit the rest. 2) Mustang blew engine, dropped oil. One car hit wall, and then a...

    Ford GT Below Sticker

    check out www.fordgtprices.com for the real scoop on these prices. I ordered a 2005 GT over 2 years ago, and have a buyers order stating MSRP plus $15k. Two months ago the dealer called and said: Good news = it is time to order car, Bad News = Car will be a 2006. I said, no problem on...

    Insurance Mavin Wanted

    Writing off your Viper through business -- How do YOU do it?

    If you already own the car, your options are limited. My favorite option for cars that don't qualify for the 6000 lbs. is to structure a lease with very high payments (paid by the business), but with a very low residual. Then, at the end of the lease you personally buy the car for like 10k...

    Made a deal in a SRT 10!!

    I saw an ad in this past sunday's Chicago tribune for a new '03 Black for $79,995. It was a dealer (perhaps Hiighland Park... I can't remember). I would also suggest talking to John Gastman (Roanoke Motors) at 800-541-6858. I have bought 4 cars from, he is great every time.

    New (almost) '01 at a great price

    New (almost) \'01 at a great price This past weekend I was at the Auburn car auction looking for a specific classic car (don't shoot me, it was a ford). The ford I wanted sold sat. for about 10K more than I wanted to spend. However, it rained all day sunday and monday, which really hurt...

    new person on the board. kinda

    Gil, How is Colorado? I am sure you miss the great Illinois winters. My SRT came in the Saturday before Christmas, but hasn't moved since. You should try to make it back for Viperwar at Gingerman. I assume you got the Viper plate? Happy New Year. Rob

    '04's available for purchase?

    Re: \'04\'s available for purchase? I would suggest John Gastman at Roanoke Motors (800)541-6858, he really delivers. (see the posts "Pics of a delivered SRT" and "A very special delivery" Both of these cars are from Roanoke). John is a very honest guy and is always #1 or #2 in Viper volume.

    $85,88,95K Rejected on eBay for SRT

    I was the one with the Black SRT up for auction. At $95k, my reserve was not met, which is fine with me. I intend to take the car, and enjoy it. Thanks to fellow VCA members from this board, I am pretty sure that my '01 RT will be sold this weekend, which will allow me to fund the SRT. As...

    Now shipping, so what is Sticker Price?

    If you go to any Five Star Dealer that has rec'd an SRT (i.e. Roanoke www.romocoinc.com or woodhouse.com) and search the new inventory you will see all of the SRT's that they currently have. Most people will be picking these up after Jan. 1 for Luxury tax reasons. Once you pull up the...

    Now shipping, so what is Sticker Price?

    Nope, I too thought they would lower the gas guzzler. However, it is $3K. Total Sticker price is $83,795. I don't have my paperwork handy, but I think invoice is $72,471, then add $3k gas tax and $800 shipping. Which would total $76,271. I think mine also had some other crap...

    125k and you can have it

    I am the one with the listing for the SRT. I don't want to sell the SRT. As the auction states, one of the Vipers must go. Accordingly, if I can sell my 2001 RT/10 (Yellow) for $56,500. I will keep the SRT. The RT/10 has both tops, cockpit cover, California Car Cover, Roe Xenon kit...

    Any new info on the RAM SRT-10???

    HEMI- Roanoke Motors (800)541-6858 has RAM 1500's with the HEMI Engine. I think they have a couple of short box (2wd) and several lwb that are 4x4. I drove the 2500 Quad with a HEMI, it was peppy, (significantly more so than the F250 with V10.

    SAD !

    I am the person with the listing on E-Bay. First of all, it is not sold until the reserve is met. Second, I was present when the reliable guys unloaded my SRT, and I was very excited, and hope to keep the car. However, as my auction states one of my Vipers must go. I had my RT/10 sold to a...

    Ordering 2004 SRT-10 in Oregon . . .

    I too have heard good things about Bill Pemberton. However, I would suggest Roanoke Motors, in Roanoke, Illinois (Call John 800-541-6858) They can get the car shipped any place you need it. John sells cars all over the States. As far as allocation, they sell so many Vipers that they get a...

    Some really great news REAL soon.......

    D Status? - I meant J status, I see so many codes flying on this board that I made a mistake. I trust my dealer, he is one of the VCA supporters, truly a Viper Dealer. He indicated that they actually only had 60 that would ship in the first batch, instead of the 200 that was originally...

    NEW H.I.D LIGHTING FOR VIPERS

    I have the ROE HIDs. They are the real thing, very similar look to the BMW light. Although they are "not street legal" I have never had any problems (Put them in the day I got my '01). Several fellow Viper owners questioned the improved visibility, until we lined up cars at a VCA meeting...

    Insurance claim for a "replacement Viper"

    Re: Insurance claim for a \"replacement Viper\" Your best bet is to get your company to pay you and then subrogate the claim. On the state farm note, they have a plan (optional) that allows customers to get $500 of rental coverage per incident (regardless of the length of loss of use). So...

    Roanoke Motors Co. Inc. Illinois

    I have purchased two vipers from John, and have my '03 on order from him. I too drive 150 miles for service, because it is such an ejoyable place to do business. When I bought my first Viper in '98 I was only 22 and he still took me seriously. You can't go wrong with Roanoke. Dave (the Viper...
