Hi all:

I just picked up my first Viper--a 2008 coupe in Venom Red with white stripes/black interior. I am absolutely obsessed with it!!! My Dad had a 1994 RT10 and a 1996 GTS so I've been around these things my whole life. There really isn't anything that even comes close to a Viper! What a car!!!

Welcome to the VCA. Be prepared to find yourself drawn to the garage just to stare at it. LOL. Be carefull and learn your car before romping on it. Congrats on the viper.

I like the Venom with White Stripes a lot. Plain Venom is ok, but add the white stripes and it really sets it off. Congrats! I just got my first one two weeks ago as well, so I know the feeling!

Congrats on your first Viper!! I've had mine for 8 months now. When I come home from working for 3 weeks out of state, it still feels like the first time I saw it! Hopefully you enjoy yours for a long time!

Don't forget the $10,000 Paxton that I want after 1 month of ownership, and the $5000 Moton suspension.

HAH! I am in the same boat.

Pre-ownership - "man, thats a lot of HP, and is just an awesome overall package. No way I'm going to nneed to touch that thing for a long time!"
Now - "So I just got some new wheels for my Viper, and this winter I'm planning on doing the blablablab and lablablablabla and then if I can swing it maybe some blablabla"

I've banned myself from clicking "classifieds" on the top link bar!!!

I do like the Venom Red. I almost bought a 2008 Vert in that color. It's definitely nicer in the sun than in pictures, and the white stripes really add the contrast. I guess some people think its not '****' enough, or too 'luxury' of a color.

So where are the pics?
