    Looking for advice: gen 1 or gen 2 and why. TIA

    If you can afford a Gen II, get one... why make compromises (windows, 50 less hp) that you don't have to?

    White Viper GTS and Dodge emblems

    Wizard? Just a note they're not cheap, I know the side hood emblems are ~$70 each side... I have the "chrome" ones on my red RT/10, and I love the way they stand out!

    Paint recommendations?

    Oh, just another note, I spoke to someone who knew the previous owner of my car, they said the paint job cost ~$7k.

    Anyone Know What Our Bumper To Bumper Warranty Really Covers??

    I know that when I purchased my extended warranty, it came with a booklet detailing exactly what WAS covered... if your part wasn't on that list, you weren't covered, plain and simple. Call your dealer and say you need a copy of your warranty terms/details, they should be able to help you.

    Pic of BlackNBlack's Custom Stereo Install

    Re: Pic of BlackNBlack\'s Custom Stereo Install That looks like a Kicker Solobaric speaker? Fiance has one in her daily driver, and it hits pretty nice. Should sound great.

    Financing vs. Payng Cash for your Viper

    This is a pointless question 1. If you can afford to pay cash for a Viper, you're probably managing your money well enough that you don't need advice on how to handle it 2. If you can't afford to pay cash for a Viper, you have to finance it. Period.

    Anyone Know What Our Bumper To Bumper Warranty Really Covers??

    Routine maintenence is not covered. Anything you would ever change doing maintenence (spark plugs, wires) is not covered. Anything that is "wearable" is not covered. In addition to the obvious things (clutch, brakes, etc), this also includes a lot of suspension components as well...

    stolen emblems!!

    I like the idea from a while back, I forget who posted it... take off your emblem, run the sides of it through a knife sharpener, re-apply. God help the first punk who tries to remove it with his bare hands. :)

    Possibly Buying a '94 - need help

    Re: Possibly Buying a \'94 - need help I'm with everyone else agreeing that you'll probably want new tires. And having just bought a '94 I'd say $42k is definately on the high side... high 30s (if the car is in near flawless condition) is probably more like it. Low to mid 30s if the car is...

    How to clean under the hood?

    My motor has accumulated a bit of grime and soot, and I'm not sure what the best way to clean it is. (I'm refering to the red covering of course). I tried just a wet rag (since I wasn't sure of how tolerant that area is to excess water), and it helped a little, but not much. What do you all...

    Rear View Mirror is all up in my face and I can't see!

    Re: Rear View Mirror is all up in my face and I can\'t see! Without the seat lowering kit, my head sticks up far enough that I can just look over the sport bar to see what's behind me. :D

    How Cold Should The A/C Be?

    Matt, My A/C was just recharged two months ago, so if you wanna meet up one night this week, let me know and you can sample it as a baseline. Drop me an email if you're interested.

    Hate to see a Viper go for less than 30k

    a) Occasional outlying prices do happen b) In most cases, you get what you pay for

    Rear View Mirror is all up in my face and I can't see!

    Re: Rear View Mirror is all up in my face and I can\'t see! I definately need the 2" kit (6'5") but as the "better half" also drives the car, I need the 1" to retain the travel. My problem isn't so much the rear view mirror, but the fact that the top of the windshield is straight ahead in my...

    clunk noise revisited. Aggrevating!!

    My Viper tech said, "they always clunk a little from SOMEWHERE". In other words, if it's not a huge clunk, he seemed to be saying to just live with it.

    Off to Maui......

    There are definately places to rent an exotic car there. I checked Island Riders website, $399 for 24 hrs for their Viper. Prowler was $299 and Vette $249. I'm sure your gas milage would be great on the road to Hana. ;)

    Post your favorite pic of your Viper :)

    Austin, I do not know the exact paint code but I know that the brand of paint is (and forgive me if I butcher the spelling) Sickens. I could probably find it if I did some digging, but I figure if I have anything done, they'd just match whatever's on there anyway. Thanks for the compliment!
