Foot-In-Mouth syndrome at its finest....

Viper Specialty · Mar 18, 2004

Well, after all of the **** I have talked about the SRT's since they came about, I think I've gone and proven my stupidity this time! I never in a million years thought an SRT would grow on me. It did... like a fungus.

Got a call from my dealer this morning. "Dan, give me a call when you get this".
Not knowing what it was about, I went to my dealer... low and behold, there is a Mamba sitting on the floor, 092 of 200. Well, We are in love! LOL

Looks like I am going to the dealer tomorrow and trading my GTS in on an SRT-10. Its definatly gonna be hard to see it go, but looking at it from the "rarity" standpoint, it will be much easier for me to later aquire another GTS in a year or two, than it will be for me to aquire a Mamba.

In the mean time, any comments or anything about the car? what to look out for VS a GTS, that kind of thing? Perhaps a couple "I told you so"?

Yes........tell them to check the cam bolt before you leave :laugh:

congrats.

Viper Specialty · Mar 18, 2004

haha, just came in today...shouldnt be affected- but I will check the MDH tomorrow.

2002_Viper_GTS_ACR · Mar 18, 2004

lol, after all that $hit you talked, about the srt-10 being inferior. You definetly need to **** now.

Jon

Anyway, congrats.

Viper Specialty · Mar 18, 2004

LOL! Jon, your pricing just hit full retail.

I should congradulate you! LOL

Hisserman · Mar 18, 2004

Saw the Mamba's up close at the Conner Plant a few weeks ago and I think you're making a good decision. Enjoy, but stay loyal to Sneaky Pete!

Jay Herbert · Mar 18, 2004

Yes........tell them to check the cam bolt before you leave congrats.

For sure! I just got a note from a rather unhappy Ram-SRT owner who enjoyed his truck for a whopping 80 miles before the engine went due to the cam bolt issue.... it took a whole new short block.

Enjoy the Mamba, a red-hot "Cool" ride.

Paul Hawker · Mar 18, 2004

Good timing. Spring is just around the corner. Just about the time you have it broken in, the weather should be perfect for a little top down cruising.
Time to take some Mamba dance lessons.

Allan White Mamba 200/200 · Mar 19, 2004

FINAL GTS, Go for it ,you won't be sorry. It's my forth Viper and by far the best.The car positively "glows" with the top up or down. Enjoy! Allan

Daffy Duck Viper · Mar 19, 2004

Eh heh heh. This is too fun! *GRIN*
I'm in love with the Mamba, too! But you get to have one, you lucky dog!!

et tu Daniel?

Great Choice! Congrats!

You may want to send Ferguson a thank you.... 'Cuz he's the one that pushed and pushed and pushed .....

WHITE!

Viperfreak2 · Mar 19, 2004

Have you thought about adding red stripes? Would be really cool going from red with white to white with red....

viper585 · Mar 19, 2004

Nice choice.You wont be sorry!!Congrats

VIPER D · Mar 19, 2004

and just think it drives better than it looks.

srt all the way

congrats

vd..

Fiorano · Mar 19, 2004

When I first saw the SRT-10 at the NY Autoshow, I kind of walked right by it w/o much of a second look. I have to agree with you, as time goes by I like it more and more. If I were deciding between a GTS and an SRT-10 today, I'd probably get the SRT-10. However, I've spent too much money on my GTS and still think it looks better...so it's here to stay.

YouWish · Mar 19, 2004

Congrats on your new purchase. We will be waiting for pictures...

SRT 10 2004 · Mar 19, 2004

So are you getting the Mamba or another SRT? I like the looks of the GTS but the SRT is about performance, thats why I got it. I cant wait for a srt coupe, that will be the baddest car ever

doctorbob · Mar 19, 2004

I have to agree...the white grows on you...I even thought about trading my red SRT for a white one.

SRT10 · Mar 19, 2004

QUOTE BY FINAL GTS

My MOTHER likes the SRT. That was enough just in itself to turn me off. LOL

But Yes, I strongly agree with the SRT=Feminine comparison. After seeing a couple go through my local dealer, it is almost right down the middle. Girls and ***** Guys go for the SRT, while Real Men go for the Gen-1/2 cars.

Congrats and good luck!! I know your going to love the SRT!
Please post some pics when you get it! :2tu:

Viper Specialty · Mar 19, 2004

HAHAHAHA!!! I cant believe you dug that up. Yep, I said it. GUILTY.

But yeah, signed the paperwork today, picking it up Monday. (I have to convert my car back to bone stock first)

2004 Mamba Edition, #092 of 200

I checked the MDH, and it is February 5th, 04...so I should be safe from the cam bolt issue. I also checked its VIN against the list, doesnt appear there either.

Allan White Mamba 200/200 · Mar 19, 2004

Dan, The last four digets on my Mamba are 1500 and the car was built in February. You are going to love it. Best Wishes, Allan

Viper Specialty · Mar 19, 2004

last four of mine are 1062

SnakeEye · Mar 19, 2004

Congrats to you! :2tu:

Would you care for some sauce to go with that foot sir?
Funny stuff!

GraphiteGTS · Mar 19, 2004

Hey, Dan, what have you said about Vettes in the past?

Viper Specialty · Mar 19, 2004

LEE- what kind of sauce would you recommend? its mighty tasty as it is!

GRAPHITE- My first guess would be; "a lot" hahahaha

04 SRT10 Owner · Mar 20, 2004

Hey good luck on the new ride. I live in the Buffalo area and hope to see you out and about. That day in September when the dealer told me my red 2004 was in was a great surprise since I didn't expect it until March and I can understand the excitement and anticipation you're feeling.
Jerry

jimandela · Mar 20, 2004

Dan,
Cant wait to see it !
are you going to mod it?
Congrats
Jim

Viper Specialty · Mar 20, 2004

04 SRT-10; if you are in the buffalo area, have I met you before? did you go to Shane's house for the BBQ last year?

JIM- Yep, gonna mod it... more than likely nothing that wont be reversable though, like my FE.

Snake Bitten · Mar 20, 2004

F-n traitor!

PS: Congrats on the new ride man...at least you're in a vert now!!!
