    What would it take to replace your Gen II.

    A gen II GTS is one of the best bang for the buck cars out there. I could have gotten any Viper I wanted, but the Gen II GTS is the best looking one of the entire Viper line. As for the Ford GT , for that price I would get something more exotic.

    97 GTS

    Open recall on the frame crack issue is actually good. My worry would have been some idiot doing warranty work (which does not pay jack) on the car. Frame is probably fine unless someone beat the sh?t out of it

    Couple of Maintenance questions on 97 GTS

    Check to see if your cooling fan is working. The fan needs to come on when the coolant gets to a predetermined temp at slow speed & idle conditions. Once the fan can pull the temp down it will turn off. When driving at higher speeds the fan is not needed. Sounds to me your fan is not working

    Got mine from the dealer, because I own a shop and spend lots of $$$ with them, they gave it to me at a deep discount. Wasnt aware of mopar parts overstock, thats a really good price

    02 GTS door opening weatherstrip

    Same problem with mine, harder to close with the new weatherstrip. Also had a slight kink where the A meets the roof. Then I noticed that the passenger side has the same kink and it is the original.

    Information about a 2002 Viper

    You should be able to negotiate on the price (several thousand I would think). They have had that car for at least 4 months. Good Luck

    Gen II and Gen III/IV Comparison

    Granted the newer cars are faster and improved. I could have gotten any Viper I wanted, but the Gen II GTS has the lines that no other Viper has...It was my only choice

    Approx value of 1996 GTS Coupe Blue with white stripes

    I see asking prices are up there for the 96 blu/wt cars. I also see they have been for sale for a long time. I dont think they are getting near that. Just my opinion. First time I saw one, I was going to a Ferrari event at Summit Point. I was driving my 930 into the pit area and what was in...

    Vipers at BJ

    As much as I like to see big numbers for the cars I own at any of these auctions (circuses) Barrett bidders seem to be the type that have to prove, my check book is bigger than yours. These people have more dollars than sense. Definetly not market value

    Why did they destroy this Gen II?

    Wow!!! That is like the craziest thing I have ever heard....crushing a car because of street racing. Seems alittle extreme to me.

    Exhaust and Smog help!

    I am not familiar with the smog test for California, but in Md. if the check engine lamp is not on with engine running and the ECU passed all readiness checks then it will pass. They cant check to see if the car has cats because they cant see thru the rockers.

    Are Viper guys true MOPAR fans or just a specialized sect?

    Good question. I am an exotic car guy, but I think the gen 2 GTS is a bad ass looking car. That's why I could not resist getting one. Never really thought about the fact that I was buying a Mopar

    Ladies about your reptile..

    Funny you said that...when my wife & I were walking toward the GTS from the store, she said looks like a Vette.... I made her walk home (not) :)

    Can't decide which exhaust system

    I was hoping to get the Lambo type sound. I already bought all the stuff, so I am stuck with the results ( unless I want to spend more $$$) But anything will sound better than the stock system :) I will keep you guys posted on my results.

    Can't decide which exhaust system

    I was hoping to get a higher pitched euro kind of sound vs a deep american muscle note. I guess I will find out. I listened to many You Tube vids. I could not find many with the B &B cat back with cat delete. Lots of choices out there.

    Can't decide which exhaust system

    I bought a B&B system and will do a cat delete. I will let you know when I get around to installing it. ROE recommended it (I hope he is right)

    Crank bolt pin kit recommended on stock engines?

    I took my flywheel inspection cover off, held the flywheel with a large pry bar, had another person work the torque wrench. Mine was tight and I also marked the bolt with a paint pen

    is this Whindshield Oem or aftermarket?

    See if the penstar emblem is etched in the glass

    Tough to replace a gen II viper...

    I just bought an 02 GTS. I could have bought any generation viper, but to me the GenII GTS was the only model Viper that got my attention

    Cats no Cats

    I am thinking of going catless just to protect the paint on my rockers. My rockers are pristine now, but how long can the paint handle that kind of heat :confused:

    viper gts gen 2 question ?!?

    I don't know if stripes affect the value of the car. Stripes were a $3K option on my 02. I couldn't have a GTS without stripes, but like Indy said, it is what you want that counts

    Do you find yourselves always "dreaming" of other Vipers?

    Don't get me wrong, I think the newest Viper is cutting edge ( as what Dodge intended for the Viper) but all the new cars....Viper, Vette, Ferrari, GTR, Lexus, etc. are all starting to look the same. I cant think of dreaming of anything other than a GTS (even if it is old news & not as fast) :)
