    Where was your Avatar picture taken?

    Mine is the picture Lou sent me when I was looking at buying the car. Pretty sad, but I don't have anything better just yet.

    TERRIBLE NEWS - PAUL MUMFORD - PLANE CRASH?

    My condolences to PMUM's family and friends. When I first joined here I remember spending hours reading the smack wars that he and Adelberg laid down every day. You can tell he will be sadly missed by everyone here.

    New Viper Owner!!!!

    Welcome, and killer color combo! Remember, aleays point the wheels straight before mashing the pedal. I spun my 94RT 2 weeks after I bought it, and came 6' from totalling the car. Respect the awesome power, and you will LOVE that car!!!

    Two day GTS owner has question

    Go with 3:55 gears if you want to have some fun. Best bang for the buck, and you really get to use every gear.

    Stock stereo system

    Focal makes a new 5" sub that fits in the stock holes at the back. Focal is made by JM Labs. Add their 6" components in the doors, and a couple of U.S. Amps Exterminator 50X(Small footprint, they fit perfect in the little side wells), and you won't believe the sound with a stock look. Still...

    Canadian vipers produced?

    There should be a fuse for the daytime running lights. Follow the wire from the headlights to the power source, and you should see it. Running lights can be unhooked with no problem to the system at all. I unhook mine all the time. P.S., The only 2 things Cdn cars need are the running...

    How much do you think I can sell it for?

    I would agree with JF5 if not for the lack of A/C. I wouldn't buy a Viper without air, but the resale has to be somewhat less without it. I'd say 47-49K would be a fair price for a clean 99ACR without air. 2000 ACR's are currently selling in the low to mid 50's. I know, cause I just bought...

    what is up with this? typical of viper owners??

    Jay I like that answer (8 years for me). "How much" is the first question everyone asks me. As far as Viper owners go, I've met lots of em, and can honestly say I've only ever met one that I thought was a dick. I didn't have my car that day, and he gave me the up and down look, then walked...

    I moved to the dark side--bought a Vette

    The gay comment was Gerald's, not mine. I had a vette before the viper, and would probably buy another vette, but for the fact that I know I would never drive it. I like cruising in the Escalade Ext, and when its nice out, I drive the viper. Bottom line, I believe you should drive cars, and...

    Advice on new tires needed...

    Need a full set of tires. Was hoping to get Khumos, but I guess I'll have to wait. Should I stick with Pilot Sports? Where is the best place to buy them? I live in Canada, but can have them shipped into Buffalo, NY, and have them installed there. Mods are headers, 4" exhaust, VEC-1, and...

    I need new side badges...

    Does anyone make custom ACR badges, or do I have to stick with the little black flag logo?

    I need new side badges...

    Does anyone know where I can get chrome side badges with the ACR logo? All my dealer parts catalog shows is the normal Viper GTS badge, and the previous owner removed the badges from my hood. Thanks in advance.

    GTS Stereo Solution-Factory Looks

    Just finished installation. I'll get some pics as soon as I can. Eclipse 8Volt deck, twin U.S. Amps Exterminator 200x, Focal Utopia 6" components in the doors, and Focal's new Utopia 5" Subs in the factory spots at the rear. Ideal for those who don't want to give up space, and keep the...

    I just completed my last transaction with Jon B

    I've dealt with Jon a few times, and couldn't think of anything bad to say about him if I tried. He even took the time to talk to my installer when he couldn't figure out something about the exhaust. My installer even had good things to say about Jon. Keep up the good work Jon. I own a...

    Happy Birthday! NOT....

    My 94 was hit hard and Chris's Collision repaired the hood. Drove the car for 4 years and could never tell it was repaired. Get a proper body man to do the work, and it'll be fine. BTW, a friend of mine backed into the ACR the other night. Not as bad as yours, but I feel your pain! Good...

    Initial ownership impressions/thoughts/questions (long)

    For street driving fun, the answer is definately 3:55 gears. The ACR I just bought has them, and I can't believe the difference!!! Best bang for the buck where torque concerns are.

    Cannot believe this Houston viper owner!

    Craig201, I Couldn't agree with you more. When I had my black 94, I would've had to wash it every day. I would much rather drive a dirty Viper than sit in the garage with a clean one :) I guess thats why the ACR is steel gray. Even when it's filthy, it still looks clean when I go by at 140!!!!

    Dropping from third gear into second - What can you get away with?

    Please describe what happens when the rev limiter kicks in. I got stuck passing a car in 1st, and when I stomped on it (I was showing a cop friend of mine what it would do) the rpm's just died right before I shifted. I'm running 3:55 gears, and it was around 6000 when it choked up. Was this...
