Attn: Bill Pemberton - Word on the Copperhead

[ViperInBlack]

Bill:

Heard any more about the Copperhead? Do you know when you will see the actual color, and can we assume that this is a run of 200 units as has been the pattern with the Mamba editions?

Thanks,

Alice

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

A bunch of us were lucky enough to see the color at ASC in January, and I find it a very strong , in your face, color. The numbers should be in the 200-300 range, similar to the Mambas, and then it should be discontinued. I personally really like the color, but then the Orange Prowler was one of my favorites when that little hot rod was being built. We all have our preferences, but I do think the Viper Nation will be pleased with the Copperhead, and it is kind of a departure color, which I hope means, more unique colors in the following years for the Coupe and SRT-10.

Bill:

As I recall, it is Mamba like in that it has orange inserts and orange stitching, correct?

(Bring the Prowler back....with a Hemi)

ya Bill when's it comin bud? I can't wait!

BTW I passed the 900 mark

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

From all that we have gleaned it will probably only have the stitching and such, and will not have the lower parts of the dash, door panels, console, etc., done in orange. The fear is that we would have a Halloween effect if done in this mannner , and I sure concur. I think the sutle stitching, and the exterior color will do the job, though there are rumors of another minor change ----- but heh,I guess DC thinks it is fun to keep us guessing, ha?!

"though there are rumors of another minor change"

Now thats just plain MEAN.

"though there are rumors of another minor change"

Now thats just plain MEAN.

Like an increase in 100 HP change?

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

No, not HP, but .............remember it is only a rumor, so I don't want to be a gossip,heh,heh.

Okay , it will come with a special decoder ring - now you all know.

 

[ViperInBlack]

Bill:

Had read about the decoder ring and its use with Captain Midnight and Jet Jackson. You can also get it with Ovaltine.

So give us a hint as to what this extra thing-a-mabob may be. We are talking trim. Hmmm, maybe we are talking the Coupe's wheels?

 

[radta7]

Fine, 50 HP, but that's my final offer!

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

Hemotox................shhhhhhhhhhhh!

 

[DSR207]

Hemotox......keep it up

 

[ViperInBlack]

Mike:

I shall.

Oh, Bill...please post the price of the new Copperhead wheels. JonB, please confirm the trade value of stock SRT-10 wheels in trade for the Copperhead wheels.

D-C...it was Mr. William Pemberton who leaked these data, not I.

Bill: Mike and I want color swatches of the new Copperhead. He wants #1 and our family wants #2...please transport this weekend. It is so cool that Woodhouse throws in a Paxton (please invoice us for the cup holder).

(Darn, with an orange car, I'll truly need those fuzzy dice...again).

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

What wheels? I know nuttin, and thinkin bout you with a Paxton - bogles the mind at which of the two is more Supercharged,ha.

 

[ViperInBlack]

Bill:

A Paxton is de rigeur at the drive-in teller window at Trust Company Bank. It is expected of all customers. The whistling makes them think that tea is brewing.

Now back to those wheels that you are shipping out...

So the original question remains, WHEN will we see the Copperhead in production.

 

[ViperInBlack]

Mid-Spring; April-May

[Wayne Finch]

Further to the Motor City Viper Club thread, can anyone comfirm the start of production of the Copperhead SRT10 - rumored to be next month!!!

 

[CTViper]

Wayne--You just bought a 05 300C 425 HP. Now a Copperhead? 12 cars now, where do you store them?

 

[Wayne Finch]

Chuck, I worry about that later. I do have a same little warehouse but that's full. There is no shortage of volunteers ready to store for me (provided I leave the keys)

 

[Makara]

Okay , it will come with a special decoder ring - now you all know.

Don't forget to drink your ovaltine
