    Wow! I have a V10!

    First up, CONGRATS! Next, original was Pilot Sports, not PS2s, those didn't exist until 2003 (If memory serves me right). I have a 2001 and the originals were Pilot Sports. if you have PS2s, they are less than 7 years old..check the production week/year on the sidewall of each tire to...

    100 Vipers on eBay,,,is this a record?

    I've been watching Vipers on ebay for years and 100 is right at average. Usually between upper 90s and 110, nothing 'newsworthy' about a 100. -J

    Dodge dealer said 2500 more Viper thats it

    But, maybe that's it? Jim Press was hired to bring "Toyota" like success to Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep? Remember he was at Toyota for 35+ years. That would be a "safe bet" for Press, no? And doing so, turning the company into an "appliance" vendor and as such no need for a halo car? Isn't Cerebus...

    Dodge dealer said 2500 more Viper thats it

    Gotcha, Thanks for the heads up. Closing CAAP in next 4 years...hmm, CAAP is still shutdown...maybe there are not enough orders yet? I wonder how many orders are "in" for '08s, any word on that? -J

    Conner plant to close via new UAW contract..

    Re: Conner plant to close via new UAW agreement.. The "term of the agreement" is 4 YEARS...so, closing CAAP during the "term" could mean very soon or in 3.5 years... -J

    Did I Over React??????

    Just a blank Viper key, it will fit just fine, but that's it, or give something totally different like a key that does not fit at all. And, remember, on the SRT10s unless you know to look under the driver mirror, the key will not get you into the car (some owners don't even know that one!)...

    Did I Over React??????

    next time leave them keys for a different car...so they 'get' what they want (your keys) but it will do them no good and use a car cover too, just to make the car stand out a little less (not to mention more or a "chore" to get in and move it since they would first have to unwrap it -J

    RUN-CRAP STORY

    Because the way the runflats are designed. The sidewalls of the runflats are extra stiff and as such, without suffiicient air pressure you are actually riding on the sidewalls (aka "riding on rails"). I owned an '05 for a while with the runflats and experimented around with them (I...

    RUN-CRAP STORY

    You need to air up the tires (44+) to get the bead to seat properly against the wheel rim. That much is a good idea. Now, they forgot to reduce the pressure back to 'regular' (which I would recommend at 32 minimum cold pressure despire the '29' on the door tag). As for a '5 thousand pound...

    Is '08 the Last Year?

    I think its good that Cerebus Capital has allowed CAAP to start up and produce the 08 Viper, that alone is encouraging to me. I think that Team SRT knew the sale of Dodge was a possibility and worked like crazy to get the 08 Viper done before DC's sale of Dodge/Chrylser. I am sure they will...

    Is '08 the Last Year?

    In the USA, I believe 6 model years, 1993 - 1998 in the Supra's final design. I believe it went a little further in Japan. -J

    No it will not. to quote: What is the penalty for not meeting CAFE requirements for any given model year (MY)? The penalty for failing to meet CAFE standards recently increased from $5.00 to $5.50 per tenth of a mile per gallon for each tenth under the target value times the total volume...
