Just add some chicken and quacamole to the wrap. Everything else is already there you might as well make it edible.

I am not sure where in Chattanoga he was from, I had him meet me at the airport (which has the slowest baggage claim in the world!)

And I priced it at $30.5k, so if I don't get any calls in the next week (and if the guy today doesn't get a loan approved) I will remove it.

$30k? ****! What's the history on it to sell it that cheap. And I can't even imagine what you paid for it if you're flipping it for that cheap.

The yellow carbon fiber seat insets and door panels are worse than the wrap! (I like wraps, this one isn't horrible except the windshield and the Gen V logo)

I would be cautious of peeling that wrap off given the history and the low price involving the car. There has to be some skeletons hiding under there like mismatched paint or bodywork.

No body work on the sides, it appears to have only had the front bumper and drivers fender repainted. I saw pictures of it before the wrap, and on a lift, nothing stuck out on it.

Wasn't really to low a price, but the guy did just pay $37k for it 4 months ago, he needed to pay off his loan and his house so a month after I made my offer he finally called me and accepted it.

I parked the car in my usual parking spot downtown yesterday, and when I was leaving the parking attendant told me he had never seen so many people take pictures of and by the car (and keep in mind I have parked my Ferrari 360, Bentley's, my old silver SRT and my RT/10 in the same spot!)

One of the more humorous threads on the forum recently! Thanks for posting! Particularly liked the comparison with the dolphin car. I would say take it all off, or buy a mask to wear when you drive it. :lmao:

Hey, as long as you are happy with it, and don't care what your Viper brothers think..but apparently you do or you would not have asked.

And you must have consummate taste if you bought a Bentley........:rolaugh:

I guess thats why I like the wrap, I grew up in the 90's so hotwheels and lego's were my favorite things.

But the wrap will be removed in two weeks if I dont get a deposit prior to that! But for now I am enjoying the attention.

You just bought this thing and now you're selling it a week later? What gives?
. He finds salvages and reduced price cars then sells them for profit. This is the third Viper, 4th car, in the past 12 months I've seen him sell. Salvaged red GTS, then a corvette, a silver 03, and now this salvage. He gets free advertising posting it here.

This is the first viper I am posting on here for resale, the others were my personal cars. I also had 2 other vipers aside from the ones you mentioned.

I don't think it looks that bad, don't think I could do it if it was my car though (the blue definitely adds some nice color to the silver). As for all the looks from people out in public but everybody on here hating it, I think it would kind of be like putting Lambo doors on a Viper, everbody out in the public would probably think they look cool on it & would like it but to the guys on here that would be a Big NO NO! jmo

Man, without salvage detail this is tough one. GLWS though, wrap or no, the price should garner attention from folks ... as long as that frame/chassis is sorted. I know it'd get my attention if there were full accident/salvage info available.

Hey guys, I bought this car 2 days ago down in Chattanooga and just got home to Chicago with it a few hours ago (man it was a loud ride and my ears are still ringing!). But anyways, the car did come with a wrap, and I sort of like it but would like to modify it a little and would like to get your opinion before I start removing stuff (I am planning on a selling the car in a month or so, I literally just bought it to enjoy a convertible until the warm, well 60 degree, weather runs out)

Here are some pics I took of it on our stop in Louisville, I would like to remove the carbon fiber on the bottom of the bumpers and shirts, and probably the blue on the windshield along with the tints, I think it would look alot better then, whats your opinion?

I also considered just removing the whole wrap, and matte blacking the wheels?

Ah, opinions. Pretty brave to buy a car with a wrap on it, hopefully no surprises underneath...
