    Gen V 1/4 mile times by owners...

    There are a couple already at $15k off...and they aren't moving. Good deal! 5000rpm launch ;)

    2014 Moving Down The Line

    I misspoke when I said 2013, meant to say Gen V. Also the Red body/white stripe combo seems to be reserved for Final edition GTS/VCA edition Gen III, kind of like the blue body/white stripe combo is used for 96 GTS, First Edition 2006 Gen III and the 2013 Launch edition cars. Cool they've...

    2014 Moving Down The Line

    Awesome, thanks for sharing! On another note, the red with white stripes have usually been for final editions right? First one I've seen on the 2013's, pretty cool :) Also, looks like your stripes are just a bit narrower on the front bumper than the Red/White GTS Hood car behind you?

    Epic!!! (sorry if repost)

    The car belongs to Cody Whitehead (owner of Whitehead Motorsports). Good guy, and huge car nut. The fact he's kept his Viper as long as he has (compared to the other cars in his stable) says a lot about the Gen V. Car is located down in Houston, and the photographer was Kat (Hybred Media). I...

    Viper production slowed by one third due to sluggish sales

    I remember watching the 2013 Viper unveil, and posting on my local forums that I would be selling my Gallardo to make room for a 2013 Viper (previously had a 2008). I saw the Viper as a car I could drive every day (and having put close to 50k miles on my 08, I'm serious). Then they released...

    Viper production slowed by one third due to sluggish sales

    No way, I don't think anyone would want to see Ralph step down. He's the biggest advocate for the Viper, and Viper owners.

    F/S--Gen V Lloyd's Trunk mat with Logo

    So the buy-back is complete? Do they pay you what you pay for the car + sales tax paid, or just what it's worth now?

    OK. One of U out there must be working on boost. Give it up.

    You wouldn't lose power by using a forged piston, power would only be lost if you lowered the compression. Personally, if I spent the labor to go into the short block, I would use aftermarket rods and pistons, and sleep better knowing I had strong pistons and rods in there.

    OK. One of U out there must be working on boost. Give it up.

    Not sure how to take that, since big numbers for Viper's tend to be 1500whp +, but I don't recall seeing many Gen III paxton SC cars making more than 1000whp (without N2O, etc.). Congrats though, if he's making 4 digits. Hope his AEM box is better than what most of my friends have, they seem...

    Gen V built on a Monday?

    Ahh, silver is for Laguna package cars. That makes sense. Still free CF inserts on the seats! :D

    Gen V built on a Monday?

    Saw this Viper on eBay a while back and thought someone was getting free Carbon Fiber inserts on the seats. The more I looked at it though, it looks like it has a mix of SRT and GTS parts on the interior. Not sure how that happened :dunno: Carbon Fiber seat inserts: Headlight...

    So what did it do Mark? How much power did it make, and what was used to control the engine?

    Need new shifter boot. Will that solve all heat problem?

    I noticed this on my Viper, and got my torn shift boot replaced under extended warranty, as it was burning my forearm driving around. After replacement, the temperature on the transmission tunnel was much better, hope this helps!

    Post up the best pic of your Gen V!

    That's most likely Kevin Ferguson's car, he also has a 2008 ACR that he races, and is on the local boards.

    A Girl And Her Viper - Drag Racw

    Tony, the silver Gallardo is a 2006 from Lamborghini Dallas (I saw the eBay listing), and his Super G is a "R package", and should be making over 1550whp.

    Gen 5 Color Combinations

    I agree Tony! I don't understand the GTS Blue with Sepia at all, and that's the second one there. The blue with black was the first I've seen, and I'm kind of saddened by the relatively small number of GTS Blue non-LE cars out there, and that they dropped GTS Blue for 2014. GTS Blue with red...

    Thanks for taking the time to do this Tony and Andy. I can't wait to pick up a Gen V :D

    Stryker aero package at Woodhouse!

    I saw that also and commented. I don't see it being a reflection, but I'm not there in real life to look.

    '13 Viper vs '11 CTS-V

    V Owner is on a local board. Car makes over 600rwhp and also has Nitrous (not sure if he sprayed). First race, the Viper took off and tapped the brakes since he thought the V wasn't ready, but the V stayed in it, and the Viper got back in. Doesn't matter how slow the other car is, once you...

    08 Coupe for sale in the classifieds

    No clue to be honest, the CarFax on it finally got corrected, but I haven't seen it listed anywhere else.

    08 Coupe for sale in the classifieds

    Car was previously owned by Smog Dog, a long time VCA member, and multiple Viper owner. He loved this car very much and took great care of it, and currently drives a 2013, otherwise I'm sure he'd still have this one. Hope it stays in the VCA family, and GLWS Tim!

    Ben Keating to run Viper GT3-R program in USCR next year

    Ben is a great guy, who genuinely loves Vipers and their owners. Glad to see he is getting one, and can't to see him race next year!

    Has anyone installed their radar detector using the pigtail?

    On the other side of the "oh $hit" handle, there is a key hole. I imagine if you push that, the glove box will open. Can anyone confirm? Looks like the glove box is in the same location, just no handle like on the Gen 3/4 cars.
