    Coupe: NEW color AND wheels!! (REAL PICS)...

    I'd have to say the rear 3/4 view of the coupe is the best.

    Highest mileage on a Viper?

    21000 miles and a 7 year old car here, runs as strong and looks as good as new.

    Official Specifications of the 2006 Coupe!

    I've seen .39 for the coupe, and .36 for the GTS. Kind of weird that the new car would be less aerodynamic.

    The SRT/10 owns

    Y2K5SRT: I understand your girlfriend analogy, and I think it's very good. While both cars are great, I still think it's too bad that one has to choose between the best looks and the best performance.

    Official Specifications of the 2006 Coupe!

    It kind of bothers me that the viper is getting taller and narrower with each new model. Being 48.6" is too tall for an exotic sports car. Also it's much less curvaceous.

    crazy night in the viper (got locked in my own car)

    I'm actually not exactly sure, my mechanical skills aren't all that great. What I did, is popped the hood and disconnected the wires from the positive.

    GSXR whallops on Viper

    The Gen IIs are the ones you'll want to buy, if you can. The Gen II started in 1996 for the coupe (GTS), and in 1997 for the converitble (RT/10).

    The SRT/10 owns

    Jk, That's probably the best an most unbiased comparison I've read of the Gen II/III in a long time.

    The SRT/10 owns

    Andrew: I actually asked the same question to a good buddy of mine with a Z06, who's driven my car a lot, and an SRT-10. He says that the Gen II seats are actually much more comfortable. If they wanted the SRT to be a real winner, they would have made all the peformance (engine...

    The SRT/10 owns

    I think your analogy is very good. No matter what's done to it, a Gen III will never look as good as a Gen II. Styling is a big factor for me, and the slight performance difference can be made up, if you choose to do so, with a few bucks.

    crazy night in the viper (got locked in my own car)

    Yeah. Once or twice before, I accidentally opened the hood with the alarm set, and the horn just started going off and I was able to use the alarm override switch. No such luck on Sunday. What I did, is I went to my local hardware store and got a 5/8" hex socket wrench, so I can disconnect...

    crazy night in the viper (got locked in my own car)

    Yes, it does. Unfortunately, they did nothing when I pulled on them. The windows didn't roll down either, all of the electronics were stopped. Thank God for the removable top.

    I actually tried that, but it didn't seem to work...something was really nutty.

    crazy night in the viper (got locked in my own car)

    Last night, I went to Applebee’s with a buddy of mine, to see his girlfriend, and I got a nice front row spot to keep an eye on the car. As we were leaving, she seemed really interested in the car, so I was happy to open the hood and show the motor. What I didn’t remember was that the doors...

    Ferrari 308GTsi, need advice.

    I'd talk to allanlambo about this. He seems to know a lot about Italian cars.

    Just curious. Why do people list cars that they have

    Exactly. I find it pretty informative when I'm looking for an opinion on something.

    Lambo Doors on a Viper?

    CTViper: If you do that mod, you will seriously de-value your car and be the laughingstock of the Viper community. Don't do it dude.

    total # of SRT10's sold in 2004....

    Re: total # of SRT10\'s sold in 2004.... I wish they wouldn't sell so many Vipers now. I for one, don't get happy when I see high production numbers. It just makes the car less rare and exclusive. Back in '98, I think they only made about 1200 or so. That is the way it should be.

    Alice, Are you planning on keeping the Mamba and owning the coupe at the same time, or selling your Mamba once you get the coupe?

    Gen III Forum Now with the Coupe Does it seem...

    There are also a lot of people who can afford Gen 3s from the Gen II camp, but choose to keep their Gen II. I'm one of them. There is nothing going on with envy here, if I wanted a Gen III I'd go get one tonight. I'll admit you're right on most regards. The Gen III is faster, handles...

    Gen III Forum Now with the Coupe Does it seem...

    You can say different car, but not better car. Let's not get delusional here. For the Gen III to be a better car, it would have to look nicer than a Gen II. This is because a huge part for the Viper's appeal is the styling. Everyone I've talked to acknowledges the Gen II to be the better...
