    Question for those who have removed their fog light covers

    ViperJohn obviously has experience here too, but 'yes', you pry them off gently. Remember that your fascia cover will also distort too, so there's movement on the release side to help you. But just know that popping one of those tabs will mean you're about to go shopping.

    $2000 Price Drop on Viper GTS

    Car is SOLD. Guy called, knew it was what he wanted, came in today, paid by cashiers check, drove back to Nashville (5 hours) and loves it. I encouraged him to join VCA. Gosh I love people who can make a decision without wasting your time! I'll miss the car and especially miss this forum...

    FS: 2001 Sapphire GTS/ACR

    Yes, having gone through this, I find it amazing how many dreamers with no money and less intention are out there. If they spent half the time they waste bothering trusting owners and spent it on their actual life pursuits, they'd have the income to cover it. Or they'd appreciate time more...

    $2000 Price Drop on Viper GTS

    Me too, on both counts! Several near misses, some very talkative pretenders, but the car and I get along so didn't rush its departure. Thank you. Not an ACR (though there is one for sale on here) but I agree on the "new" Viper looking quite a bit like the old Gen 2! Well argh. Thought I...

    $2000 Price Drop on Viper GTS

    After moving two cars to extract one out of the garage, this 'lack of space' issue is getting more acute. So I have authorized a price drop (to a committee that included basically me) for the Viper GTS. Drove it earlier this week, fired up first time, ran great. Car is such a champ and will...

    Viper GTS for sale

    I completely agree. I've got a Pantera too, and those are an overly modded car (to put it mildly) for which I sought an original example only. Seems now the un modded ones are bringing the dough. In time, the GT will likely be the same. Mine is totally stock, and other than reliability mods, I...

    Viper GTS for sale

    Thank you speedracer. I prefer no stripes, but I do like this color a lot. I've STILL never gone! Guess I'm waiting on you to guilt me into it! Second hand buyers can't be too choosy! My first choice was blue, but what the hay, it's gray. It is amazing. I'd wanted one for about 3-4 years...

    Pics of my neighbor's new McLaren and my RT/10

    I looked at a McClaren in the Dallas dealer a few weeks back (looking only, that's for sure!) and what an engineering marvel. Their 'own' engine after having used BMW so successfully before. Product specialists kept telling me how much better it rode than my other car, and urged for a test...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    Thanks for that. I wrote the ad for AutoTrader, got the pics loaded, was about to hit submit and rethought it. I can only do one car thing at a time, so am waiting on GT delivery, gonna sort what that car may or may not need, then refocus on my next move. Really appreciate the input, and am...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    Ebay is now decidedly 'slanted' toward the buyer side, dismissing feedback from sellers accordingly. My one-word assessment: hate. Like many of you, I've little time for time wasters, yet those with intention, whim, and a happy 'bidding' finger seem to have an abundance. Yes, a joke, in a...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    Well, not so fast. The ebay 'buyer' appears to be another clown in the "I'd like to own your Viper but forgot I didn't have any money" group. Woe is me. Whatever. There are worse things than having to find more parking space. Already bought the GT, should be here end of next week. I'm not going...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290777734270#ht_1996wt_1169 Thanks for that. The GT may be a short-lived romance, but I've had the hots for one for a while. We shall see, and I'm happy to share. Takes quite a car to de-Viper a person! Always loved the Viper, mainly...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    Oh, the stabbing sensation in my heart! When I posted the car for 'armchair appraisals' on this forum, I got $40-42k all day long. Knowing the car like I do, and what I've invested to keep it as close to turn-key perfect the whole time, even THAT seems low. And I know I'm beating a future...

    I have had enough with these battery/charging system issues

    Wow, what a pain in the drain. Sorry. My car did this 'accelerated discharge thing' twice. Once, I had opened the rear hatch but only lightly laid it back down, not 'clicking' it, and my interior light stayed on. That was tricky since the thing 'looked' shut. The second time I had...

    STOP! Someone is about to steal my Viper GTS!

    Well, maybe 'steal' is a little strong. After 5 years of super fun, very rewarding ownership, and a tremendous amount of help from this forum, I am reluctantly moving out of Viper ownership. At least for now. Over time, you guys and ladies have helped me not panic when my temp gauge pegged...

    Viper GTS for sale

    Just secured purchase on Ford GT I was looking at. Yay. Can't wait, same awesome color as the Viper. Dropped the Viper 2 grand to help put it in your garage. Can hold the car too if you want. Not in my way at the moment. Somebody's gonna get a great car.Here it is...

    Viper GTS for sale

    Car barely missed reserve. Didn't want to let it go It's been a great car, paid for since day one, has never let me down, and the recipient of several good mods. Always returns a smile. Not merely because mine is for sale, but I'm in the camp that feels great Gen 2s deserve more value. If...
