    To those who predict skies falling on Viper on account of upcoming Z06

    I apologize in advance, I rarely post here, but... OP: I remember sitting at the computer for months, waiting for the big reveal, reading every single morsel, drinking the Kool-Aid, being the proper fan boy. Waiting with check in hand for the new Gen 5 (my employees made fun of me for...

    Death of the Viper

    Well, it was a skunkworks car and not to surprisingly, so is the new Viper. Dodge has had a terrible reputation for quality in the past, yet look at all of us drooling over this new beast... If you add a nominal cost of living increase, the price may not be as bad as you think. The point of...

    Death of the Viper

    As it should, 6 years later. I not only hope it does, but I'd like to see them sitting next to each other one day. :)

    Death of the Viper

    You are seriously misinformed. Ford didn't kill the GT because it was unsustainable. It had a few things going against it... As of 2007, the new federal laws mandated that an A Pillar that could not be as close to the head of the driver/passenger as the GT had. It was originally supposed to be...

    Gen V images leaked

    Look at the close up of the Viper badge, its a sticker or painted, not an actual metal badge... Must be a prototype pre-production car?

    Gen V images leaked

    Ummm, I just want to see the naked lady on the beach. Where is she? Jury is out for me, I'll have to see it in person to decide for sure but so far I'm not entirely convinced... On a side note, I feel bad for SRT that this got leaked just a day before launch, I would have waited one more day...

    Gen1 dash removal and painting?

    I just removed mine today and is in my paint shop being stripped... I would say the two things most people tend to leave out is the center piece (gear shift area) needs to be popped out first because there are two screws on each side of the stereo bezel that hold the center of the dash in place...

    Viper Philosophy

    I agree with "I bin ther before" in his rawness statement. I have, and have had many cars... The first question most people ask me is what my favorite car is (always assuming it's the most expensive). But, here is where I am stumped. I love everyone of them for different reasons and oddly...

    Wanted to say hello and introduce myself

    Awesome, I actually have one called "funhouse" that is acting up, so I may need someones expertise to get it running right. I would like to get my hands on an Adams Family pin... That's one of my favorite machines. Hopefully I'll see you at some events. Cheers!

    Wanted to say hello and introduce myself

    Nope, when the Gen 3 was wrecked I bought the Ford GT, I plan on ordering the 2013 the day it's available though, my wife already gave it the green light. Can't wait to finally go to a few events.

    new viper hot wheels car

    We are in a new world, in which, nearly everything is outsourced, this will never allow a consumer marketed product to be kept secret. I'm bummed because it's coming from hot wheels.... I expected and hoped for a decent leak from a legit car rag... I'm human and want to see it before it's...

    Garage / Shop floor covering question

    Wow $8 to $10 seems crazy high. I think in the Chicagoland area the highest quote I got was around $5 p square foot. The Epoxy quotes were pretty high though.
