Really entertaining a trade for my 70 roadrunner but its a real tough call.

Link not working well. But no way you can have both? Sweeeet looking car in the pic!

The link doesn' work to a specific car.

Your RR is sweet though. I restored a couple Superbirds and a 69 RR convertible in the past.

try this one; 2001 GTS ACR

That's a lot of dough for a 2001 Viper. It is sweet looking though.

is that price in line with the last Viper you purchased Dave?

I paid $48,500 for my '01 with 17.5K miles. Sooooooo, I dunno. You do the math. What is the value of the ACR option?!? Dunno. What is the value of low miles?!? Dunno. I saw, I wanted, I threw cash, I drove away.

I think when the dust settles, I could have this car for $60k. That's $57k USA. It is REAL nice. 1 mark on the drivers door panel(a scrub)and 2 little surface rust spots on the rails by the battery area. Needs a serious detail. 1 tiny rock chip over the windshield on the roof, super minor chin rash.
My struggle is I don't know what Viper models are the "rolling workorder", which are the more desireable, etc. etc. I know the production numbers are real low for this car, color combo. Probably 1 or 2 in Canada. From surfing this forum for a few weeks I have learned a ton but was looking for some opinions from the pros.

I want a GTS, not red. Favorite is the S. Blue. Don't like the ACR wheels and would likely switch them ASAP( yeah I know; they are expensive too)Other than the ACR badges and potential wow factor, I like the wheels, fog lights on the regular GTS better but is the ACR the car the Viper crowd wants to have or doesn't want to have because it has issues?

Unfortunatly, I can't have the roadrunner and the Viper but I feel ( could be sadly mistaken??) the values are very close.

Thanks

I think the ACR vs. not ACR is strictly personal choice. Me? I have a GTS. And I have no clue what my VIN means when decoded. The ACR option was something I cared less about. My criteria was this simple: GTS, ABS brakes ('01 or '02), red, white stripes, not beat up or excessively or visibly abused. As said in the previous post, found it and bought it.

Ask yourself what you want to do with the car. Show it, park it, store it, impress others, drive it, sell it later for profit, etc. Then ask yourself if the ACR option fits into your needs. It did not fit into my needs.

i suppose you are in Canada, i will gladly swap the wheels with you if you don't like them.

Don't worry Dave just has to add his worthless of no value .02 cents to every thread on the boards. Glad we have him around to keep this place from getting slow
