To whom ever gets the Shadow Blue I ordered at the end of the summer: have fun!

Adrenaline Red has been really growing on me so I made the switch. Same interior and wheels as initially ordered. Sitting in the cockpit is amazing. The car is like a super hero or cartoon character! Lovely shapes & angles; pics do zero justice. But here's some anyway.

Special thanks to Bill Pemberton and his staff. Driver was a great guy and did a fantastic job! Bill is a class act and the real deal but I suspect u already know this.

I have a feeling it's gonna be a fun weekend!

you are right, pictures do it no justice. the interior of the GTS is amazing. remove those 2 bolts on the seat rail, makes the view out the windshield soo much better. now go break it in so you can really open her up.

Wow, congrats even though you didn't get the car you ordered. At least you have one for summer and don't have to wait any longer. I can't wait to hear your impressions as well as Vipersmith's.

Thanks. So of course I check with SRT & original order went to frame with an ETA of 6/27 LOL. Still say I wouldnt have until the 1st or 2nd week of July that way. Was also honestly concerned about Shadow Blue paint being too much like black, tough to keep clean and perhaps too subtle. Satisfied with the decision. Spent the morning at DMV registering the new snake. Hope to get to driving it by the weekend...will report back!!

Thanks Todd. I hope your Stryker Red gets moving soon. I hear they are shipping 30 cars per week out of Detroit. It just wasnt fast enough for me I guess. Got regular plates for now as I'm still struggling with VYPER, BITTEN, STRYKR, etc........

Holy crap, I missed the beginning of the thread, I didn't realize you had already taken possession of a Red GTS with Sepia! Duh, brain is in gear now.

My lady and I sat in one just like it at a local dealer. Gotta say, the red and Sepia kick ass together, it made me think hard. A classic supercar color combo, enjoy brother!

Looks good policy, I was worried about you getting the short end of the stick with all your delays, haha.

Typical, your original car hits frame a day after you cancel.

Glad you are happy in the end.

I have the mopar cover it's a light grey w/ black stryker logo. I'm not sure if it's washable, mine has a few spots from brake dust already and it's definitely not an outdoor cover. The material is pretty light weight, almost like parachute material however; it keeps the dust off and the fit is very good. It also comes with its own storage duffel bag and fits easily in the hatch back. Worth $500? It's better than my previous car cover which I purchased for my Gen III, and Gen IV so overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Welcome to the SRT club. The red with tan interior is a nice combination of colors.

Thnx. Its generally a welcoming bunch. I've owned lots of cool brands and NONE of them have made me feel as connected to a community like Viper. I've gotten countless e-mails, books, vca event invites, etc and all in a short amount of time. I hope to make it to at least one vca event this season and meet some members in person.

Red & Tan really grew on me and I'm glad I switched away from Shadow Blue after all.

Man, I couldn't pass on Shadow Pearl for red, but can certainly understand your frustration and decision. Car looks great!
