    'Interesting' Viper on eBay

    \'Interesting\' Viper on eBay No reserve '95 Black Viper w/ custom paint job on eBay. I'm still shopping for a Viper and thought some people here might find this one interesting. Paint job is not to my taste, but others may like it. The black/tan combo on the 95's looks good - only Gen I...

    Head unit + GPS + MP3 player + ???

    Is there a head unit that will fit a Gen II Viper which has a retractable GPS screen and can plays CDs containing MP3 files? Those are the min. requirements. Anything over and above (general purpose LCD screen, support for other audio formats, etc.) will be icing. Thanks!

    Connolly® Leather

    On the '99 RT/10, was the Connolly interior option offered in black, or only cognac? Right now I'm waffling between cognac and black interior, but if the Connolly interior was only offered in cognac, that will end the decision. I'll be getting cognac :) Thanks!

    2000 RT/10 for ¢¢¢

    Look at what this 2000 RT went for: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2438137478&category=6209 And that was the ASKING price, not an auction gone wrong. Looks like my price target of <$45K for a '99 RT next August should be easy to hit.

    Exhaust sacrilege

    O.K. I'm going to risk offending some people with this suggestion, but here goes: I want a QUIET Viper. Here's the problem. I want to do a Gen I sidepipe conversion to a Gen II, but I don't want the noise. What is the best way to have a quiet Gen II w/ sidepipes, while minimizing the...

    Cash discount?

    Hello, I will be in the market for a Viper sometime next year (would do it now, but I'm overseas). I would like to get some feedback as to what kind of discount I can expect for paying in cash. And I don't mean a cashier's check, I mean a stack of (untraceable by the IRS) bills. Due to my...

    '99 exhaust mod recommendations

    \'99 exhaust mod recommendations This is for a bone stock '99. I'm going to do a Gen I sidesill conversion, so the '99 will have sidepipes. As such, that eliminates a lot of plumbing. I also plan to delete the cats, but I want to keep mufflers of some sort, because I don't want an...

    Dream Wheels for Viper

    Like many others out there, I find the dearth of aftermarket wheels for Vipers depressing. I spoke to a friend of mine who owns a CNC machine shop about the possibility of making knock-off Centerline Hellcats for the Viper. The cost involved makes it unreasonable (though NOT impossible) for 1...

    Side Pipes & Rear Exhaust?

    Would it be practical, and make sense performance-wise, to give a '99 RT-10 side pipes while keeping the existing rear exhaust? I want to mod a '99 so it has Gen I side pipes, but I got to thinking that if I kept the rear exhaust, it would have twice the breathing room without sacrificing...

    Side Pipes on a '96?

    Side Pipes on a \'96? Is it possible to add side pipes to a '96 so that it looks *exactly* like factory side pipes from the Gen 1 cars? I've seen a modified '96 with side pipes, and it looked good, but not as good as the ones from the factory. The problem I have is that I like the...

    Stripe Removal

    I realize this is sacrilege, but how difficult is it to remove the stripes from a 1996 RT/10? I do like the stripes, but I think I'd like the overall look of the car more without them. Does a paint and body shop need to do it, or do I just peel up a corner and start pulling, like removing a...

    '96 fascia on a '94 RT/10?

    \'96 fascia on a \'94 RT/10? Would the fascia (grill) from a '96 RT/10 readily (as in with little to no modification) fit on a '94 RT/10?

    Viper Reliability

    I'm considering buying a pre-owned Viper, and I was hoping this forum could steer me in the right direction. My greatest concern is the reliability of the car. Is there a year/model, 1999 or earlier, that is known for being particularly trouble-free (or troublesome)? I realize the Vipers...
