    Gen II re-sale seems the same if not more than Gen III

    I can attest to the rise in KBB's value numbers. A year ago I punched in the numbers on my GTS and KBB said the value was $28,500. Today with about a thousand more miles (81,000) KBB has it at $33,150.

    Got reminded how kool vipers are

    It's kind of cool seeing the reaction from the little kids who have only seen the cars in the new video games. When one actually drives by, they get real excited, yell at their friends to look, and point. One thing i try to keep in mind after over 4 years of ownership, is to always remember that...

    Williamsburg C&C

    I heard they moved this to the outlet mall. Is that a good location? Its about an 80 mile trip for me, but I will be making it when the weather warms up. Also the Virginia Beach one.

    Got ticket for tinted window

    You are right, and the cop is right. This kind of ticket is within his rights to issue. The law says don't do it... end of subject as far as he is concerned. Now, having said that, they look for this kind of ticket as a "BS" ticket to issue. No cop with anything to do in his day is going to take...

    This pic makes it look like a toy

    Looks like the camera just auto-focused on the gravel making everything else look out of focus. Sometimes the same thing will happen if you try and take a photo through a window.

    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    Point taken,,,, and a very valid one. It just occured to me that with enough "insiders" and talented people getting clues, someone will step up like on CSI and eventually create one close enough that will make Dodge nervous and possibly upset at our club. We need to leave the guess work to the...

    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    An insider over at AllPar submitted his best "guess" for the 2012. For those that saw, are either of these views even close? He was very close on his predictive drawings for the Challenger, Charger, 200 and the new 300, so I'm wondering how far off he is on this.

    Do Vipers Attract Tailgaters and Aggressive Drivers?

    This happens every time I take the car out here in SouthEast Virginia. I drive my Viper no different than I drive my Ram, about 6 over the speed limit. (OK, OK, maybe a LIIIIIITTTLE faster. lol) Far more angering to me are the folks who are in front of you and go out of their way to cut you off...

    I hit a deer!

    Gen V Viper Logo pics...

    To those that saw, is the design of the logo simulating the front of the car? Notice the eyes shaped like headlights.... the hump behind the eyes like a fender well.... the v down the middle like a groove in the hood... the nostrils being duct openings.... even the line between the eyes has the...

    2012 Viper model was introduced at Orlando, Fl.

    This was printed in the Wall Street Journal. Very interesting...... "The Dodge Viper hot-rod will be back in 2012. The concept vehicle displayed at the meeting had been painted more than 25 times with a candy-apple red to give it a sleek appeal. The vehicle is more upscale and has moved away...

    Will the Carolina Region VCA have an active 2011?

    From a planning perspective, last year I planned an event for the Outer Banks and announced all the details here. I had to cancel because I had 0 people respond. Not complaining, just stating why this year I've relaxed instead of trying to plan something. I know Richmond Va is a several hour...

    Hurricane prepping the GTS

    Well, as Earl approaches me here on the coast of North Carolina, I guess I will figure out what I need to do to prep the GTS for the winds. Actually, she should be pretty safe. When I built the house, they required I install a hurricane resistant garage door and windows. I'll put my cover on...
