Man I am going crazy --- saw a black SRT 10 tonight while driving my C6 and really waffled right back to Viper --- my primary concern about buying a 2005 SRT 10 was driven by the posts on this site regarding loss of control....got to admit there are quite a few thus the re-interest in the Z (I...
In your first 6 months of Viper ownership, how many times have you spun out or otherwise lost control of your vehicle? Also, what climate or location did the situation occur? Thanks!
Just checked over at the z06 posts -- the new Z is real -- all the specs confirmed -- looks like the price is $68k. Might stay with the Vettes -- that strike price coupled with what $20k worth of mods would do is compelling --- thanks for all over your input over the past few weeks. See ya later!
Spent more time at the dealer today with the White Mamba. I have decided the White Mamba isn't for me. I am not a big "white car" guy -- not to slight those that like this color but with all the traveling I do seeing white cars makes me think "rental car white". I really like Alice's Black...
Alice, I totally agree with your comment. The 05 is Viper Red with a black interior. I was just interested to see where the price points are for these SRTs. The Mamba had a red appointed interior with a Mamba tag sort of thing on the center console. Thanks for your reply!!
Besides the incremental price difference between a standard SRT 10 and a Mamba edition is there any difference? What about depreciation and net values...does the Mamba enjoy a more residual value lift then a non Mamba?
I can get a 2005 new SRT 10 or a 2004 white Mamba edition.... the used...
I have to admit the performance characteristics are impressive but again lets face it GM had a chance to make the car special in terms of its appearence and they didn't. As a Vette owner for the past 10 years its disappointing. Sure the car will pull but again for those looking for something...
Just curious to learn how many people that own Vipers also own other Dodge or Chrysler Products. I personally have 2 Escalades (an EXT for me and ESV for my wife). I am trading my C6 Corvette in for a new 05 SRT 10 (Viper Red). In my research I have concluded a Viper is a Viper not...
Does anyone own an SRT 10 in the Bucks County Area? I am planning on purchasing an SRT 10 in the next 60 days and if there is a willing owner I would like to meet, and perhaps compare the Viper to the C6 side by side (one more time) before plunking down the dough on a new 05 SRT 10. Like...
Thanks to all -- I am convinced the SRT 10 is for me!! Sure appreciate all of the feedback and advice. I am not scared of the car just want to know what to expect and if there are involuntary things that the car does without the drivers direction -- does not seem to be that at all. I figured...
Just curious to get your feedback regarding the heat of the floor area in the SRT 10 and the heat of the side sills. In some articles I have read they actually show eggs frying on the side sills -- I know a joke but if 10 is incredibly hot and 1 is very cool how do you rate them? Thanks...
Sure appreciate the insight and quite frankly the replies cause more concern then comfort. Again I have owned Vettes for a long time (clearly not a Viper I know) but I would hope driving it carefully and respecting the torque would yield a fun and safe experience. I dont need to blast the thing...
I am new to the Forum and respectfully request your patience and advice. I have owned 5 Vettes including my current ride a 2005 C6 Corvette. To be quite frank I am in search of something unique and exotic under $100k and have been very intrigued by the Viper now for the past several months. I...
