    What will 40 large get me? (GTS only)

    I actually was very close to buying that car and the owner seems like a really good guy...but I promised myself..and bank that 40 was my max and that car is just out of my budget. I checked BJ...and but I wont get a car there for 40k. But thanks for the responses.....I hope some members here...

    What will 40 large get me? (GTS only)

    I decided to start my search again as i was getting a little disenchanted a few months ago. I took the advice on the forum and decided to not get impatient. I feel like in this market, 40k should get a good car. I have seen (and was close to getting it myself) a steel grey with 9k miles and...

    Found a viper but im not sure if its right for me.

    hi, I have been searching too (taking a break). I can tell you this...45k is not a "red flag" for a 22k b/w right now in this market. I think there there was/is a b/w with amazing paint and overall excellent condition on here listed at 45k on here. Typically the cars here go for a little...

    God doesnt want me to have a viper. Im serious.

    Kevin, I have also been at a standstill. I even passed up a pretty cherry deal on ebay for a 1998 9k mile gts mint condition for 40k shipped to my front door. It sold for 41k. Something just didn't feel right. I have since really chilled out on my search because I started to feel like the...

    I'm considering buying this car, anyone know anything about it?

    My belief is that if he gives me an iffy feeling during a conversation imagine what kind of "vibe" he gave that car. The tires are completely bald at 7900 miles? I would rather save the "what ifs" and buy elsewhere. There are definitely deals out there.

    I'm considering buying this car, anyone know anything about it?

    the car sounded fishy. I was VERY close to buying. When i first called he said "I don't even know if I am going to sell it as I don't need the money. I even have an NSX in the garage." Then I called back about the car because he was too busy to talk the first time and he said "are you calling...

    Calling Chi town Owners for a car Check

    Last night I called my CC and they put a hold on my account as the charge didn't occur yet. I then talked to him/them today and found out that the front bumper is indeed painted over. I highly doubt I will pursue this car any further. Paint work=bad right?

    My 97 b/w GTS in the classifieds

    Good luck with the sale. It's Dave from michigan. I spoke with you very early during my quest. Out of my budget but if it were in there...yours would be the car I would want. Nicest one I have seen in awhile. Great mods too.

    Put a deposit down on this

    Well I called my CC company and they have not charged my card yet. So whenever they decide to do so it will be rejected as I put a hold on my account. I will call them tomorrow and work something out via a smaller deposit (100 bucks) and have a VCA member check it, or I will just let this one...

    Calling Chi town Owners for a car Check

    Hey everyone. First let me say thank you all for your help (everyone on the site). I have a credit card deposit with Exotic Motors for a 98 Viper GTS (Red) and I am getting some interesting feedback VIA PM about the quality of the dealership. Could anyone check the car out in person for me...

    God doesnt want me to have a viper. Im serious.

    crap dude, im sorry. What a let down. At the very least you can take a few weeks off without obsessing over one and start somewhat fresh when u feel better. It doesn't have to be all or nothing. When it is right..it will be. If not..it will be ok too! You can see my thread about a car that...

    Thanks sleek-ride. The car is actually located outside of Chicago Illinois. I guess I would need a chi town member to check it! Any takers?!

    Put a deposit down on this

    Hmmmm I am fixated on that front fascia...that isn't lighting reflections is it? That is all scuffed? The other parts of the car look great. If it is that scuffed....would you guys personally still feel comfortable dropping 36k on this vehicle (assuming everything else is in order). Also the...

    Put a deposit down on this

    thanks for the reply and advice as I will make sure to check those things. I actually negotiated the price below that a bit so that is not my purchase price. I am going to call back and talk about the front fascia. I thought it was actually just bad lighting and not that scratched..im going...

    1998 Used Dodge Viper GTS at Exotic Motors in Call 866-330-3645, IL - Vehicle Details Tell me what you guys think? I am not going through ebay but their feeback is stellar. Their cars appear to be very well-priced across the boards and i think the amount of pictures and overall presentation...

    98 GTS question (buying question)

    good call. I think I may opt for that option. I am going to maul this over for a few hours and make a decision. I am not in an extreme hurry with the purchase just as long as it is by the time the Woodward Dream cruise hits:) I am in MI so that is important!

    98 GTS question (buying question)

    Ok I have found a dealer that has a 98 GTS with 27k miles, great condition, 50% tread tire, for 36k. It is a red viper. It sounds like a very good deal to me. 1. Should I pay a few grand more (maybe 5k) for a similar stock car with HALF the miles to help in resale or are miles not really...

    I think I may have found my car....need serious input

    Ok this car is not going to happen. I have since called twice and the owner has said "Can i call you in a few because I just got busy." I make sure he has my number and he does not return the call. If I am trying to sell a car, I do that; SELL. If he treats potential buyers with this lazy...

    I think I may have found my car....need serious input

    how would i find a viper tech that would do that in his neck of the woods? I am also looking at a pretty nice 97 BW GTS with 9k miles for about 45k. There are a few scratches on the lower front fascia and rear bumper and will post pictures to get some input in the community in the next day or...
