    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    So far it seems that Vipers are not full of super expensive surprises and if properly taken care of, will last a while. Any other stories regarding fixing and how much they cost?

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    Thanks for the advice. I am not thinking of buying a Viper to have it only for a year. However, knowing life I cannot discout that option. Not because I cannot afford the maintenence, but knowing life, one needs to take all possibilities into the equation of Viper ownership.

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    Thanx for your contribution. Undoubtedly, lack of windows and solid roof is not the best solution for somebody who lives in urban setting such as NY. I admire the dedication to the machine of those who drive it every day. However, I am planning on Viper to be my second car purely for fun, mostly...

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    I am not mechanically inclined but I do have a dear friend who is a good mechanic and have been fixing my cars for the last 20 years (including my vette). He is a solid, smart and patient guy who charges around $60/Hour and enjoys working on cars. He is very detailed and disciplined when...

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    When I was reading your post I was under the impression that your prices are on the high side and then I saw what kind of a Viper you possess. WOW , that thing could race an F16 and give it a serious run for the money. I guess when one has 1600 under the gas pedal a 5K tranny is the only...

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    I would love to get one of those pristine almost virgins with less than 15K on the odometer and then slowly improve her till she is ready to rumble. It would probably be the best way to spend even more $$$ on the car without wife searching for divorce lawyers in local directory. I am not into...

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    While in college which was a while ago, I was asked to leave a Toyota dealership because I just wanted to look and was not ready to provide my personal info. To say that I was unhappy would be an understatement. I left and guess what? I have never ever been back to that or any other Toyota...

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    Why are those hoods so expensive to replace? I am guessing they are no longer being produced and hence the price being so high. Also why would they develop cracks?

    Not to worry plum. I will run the numbers by you when I decide to pull the trigger so that I can get your approval. So far I am getting a lot of attention from you without the Viper. Imagine if I had one ;) Enjoy the skyline. One day U2 shall be able to reside there. As always.... much...

    I have no problem paying decent money for good service. I am just trying to see if the Viper tax is closer to Vette tax or Porsche's Tax. :)

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    I could live with 19K for that V10 but $500 for a gas cap - that is crazy territory. I guess no more going top the bathroom while at the gas station. Either that or taking the cap with me. LOL :rolaugh:

    Cost of fixing Viper 94 - 96

    Since Vipers are not dime a dozen, it is hard to determine the cost of keeping the beast running for those who have yet to be privileged of its ownership. I think it would be a splendid idea to gather prices paid for all kinds of repairs one would encounter while owning the vehicle in question...

    Does not get any nicer than this! BTW How much is your Viper worth in a current setup? :2tu:

    Contemplating my first ever Viper buy

    What is your budget? Vipers go from 20 to 100K and depending what you bring to the table, you will get different answers. I think that the best bang for the buck would be to get a 94-96 with 30K miles for around 30 grand and take it from there.

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    For the record I do not sell houses. As for the posts; I try to answer each one directed at me. If they are hard on your eyes feel free to skip. :rolleyes:

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can't handle the truth hero man. Like I said it is you I find displeasing not the military. I did not say anything about tent cities and just because I expose your shortcomings does not mean I have a problem with the army, the navy or the airforce (well perhaps with the air...

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    I would never do that but this fella has as much to do with military and what it represent as a thirsty illegal crossing the border claiming to be a citizen. LOL

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    Look Zorro, go provide some water to all the tourist without visa crossing through your neck of the woods. LOL Yeah, last time I checked the property prices were so much lower in good old NYC than in Arizona. Say hello to the maverick and his girl Palin for me aka dumb and dumber. :2tu...

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    It is not me who gave the lawyers a bad name it is the attorneys themselves. BTW. You are not going to send me a bill for answering my post are you? :omg:

    How much of attention getter are Vipers?

    I do not make fun of the military just you. Both my grandparents and my father served so I know a little bit about soldier's life. Next to them you are just an FNG fighting bad weather and empty beaches in Panama City. If it was not for Rambo you would not know what a jungle looks like not to...
