    Man....I miss my old GTS

    Jon, Have you had any seat time with an 08'??? The car is a monster.. Not "just" the horsepower.. Handling, braking, just the level of control all together. yes, after driving an 08'. A stock GTS will feel like the ebrake is on... No offense, just a fact. I will always agree the GTS has the...

    Man....I miss my old GTS

    I've been full circle and know exactly what your talking about. Had 2 GTS's, sold them for a 2006 VOI9, then went back to another GTS... The bottom line is... THE GTS is one of the greatest looking cars ever made. BUT the performance is completely outdated... So, if Performance is your...

    Warranty Question

    Why don't you subsidize an extended warranty for him... Don't let a few G's (cost of warranty) break the deal. Just my 2 cents. Buyers are precious right now.. Make sure before you break ties, you did every thing you could to secure the deal. good luck..

    Barrett Jackson this Saturday!!!!!!!!!!

    The seller walked with $46k net (50-8%) PLUS deduct entry fees, shipping,etc.. So figure about $43-44k range. Ouch is right.. Could have went stronger on Ebay.. I was at the auction today, and saw a GTSR go for $89k.. The fiasco of 05-06 of people with money to pizz away, seems to be over...

    Scratch made with a key - help please ...

    Iron, Don't repaint the hood for this. Its not worth it.... If you paint the hood, it could be something you need to "explain" when selling the car. Then of course questions arise.. Was it wrecked, etc,etc. Can you take some pictures and post...?? First step. Go to a (dodge dealer) and order...

    Anyone know this Viper

    When my car was listed on AutoTrader, it was scammed and "duplicated" several times. Using my Pictures and all. Of course asking price was $25k less... WHENEVER you see an Autotrader Ad with the price embedded in the pictures, its an automatic scam... The reason is, Autotrader has (as most...

    Power Ball Polisher

    you should not use anything on Chrome wheels, besides a very mild solution. I have always used P21s. The best wheel cleaner on the market IMHO.. Strong cleaning power, but very mild and Ph balanced. So you dont get any discoloring on your calipers and rotors. Which is common with the "pep boys"...

    Underbody Neon Lighting

    I have to admit, I did this once as well.. On a Mustang 5.0 GT (the hot car at the time), around that same time period 93-94'ish.. I did not "drive around" with them on though. Looked kind of cool when the car was parked. Again, AT THE TIME... :lmao: Good times with that bad boy..

    HELP...terminated from my job, need to get out of lease

    You can't... A Ferrari Lease will run you $2500/mo WITH money down.. $1200/mo. on a 2008 Viper is NOT bad... The car mentioned on swapalease is a GOOD deal. BUT, its also a 2006.. If you want to protect your credit, throw in an incentive, to get payments in the 8-900 range. You WILL move...

    The SSG 2008 SRT-10 Is Home!!!

    Agree 100%. The 5 spokes are BY FAR the most desirable wheel for a 06-09 Vipers. No offense to H-wheel or Razor owners. Opinions vary I guess. Awesome Ride.... someone took great care of that car. You can just tell from looking at the pictures.. Very Little seat wear, clean paint,etc,no...

    Viper GTS Loan

    when considering a loan. Keep in mind the 5-7 years, prior to August/2008 was a fantasy land.. Never to happen again, and should have never happened to begin with. Blank check loans, 110% financing,etc,etc. Banks now want pristine credit and proper D/I ratio. And they will most likely only loan...

    Pics Of My Crashed Viper

    There are plenty of nice GenII's out there at bargain pricing right now... The car is very easy to replace. Glad you hear your ok.... That Viper did a great job absorbing quite a bit of energy. All in all, a very good outcome. What were weather conditions on the day of the accident? Dry and...

    Replacing Your Heat Shields

    He is correct... After trying everything under the sun on my side sills. AIRFLOW is king... The wraps just get heat soaked after a while. Gut everything out, and maybe even buy those vents from JonB.

    I was going to run my 01' GTS through @ No Reserve, but It sold privately. I will be there, and also registered to bid. Who knows what they day will bring :-). Last year, I saw some stuff go for dirt cheap. And regretted not registering.

    Front splitter

    Same here.. I had a VR/Silver Coupe oncoming to me the other day... I have owned 5 Vipers, and was still Jaw Dropped over this car... Awesome looking car.. Does not get the credit it deserves. How is the splitter held on? Those side pieces Look like they would come right off at 100+

    Am i being to picky?

    I've had factory new cars, that had a little color variance between the facia and the rest of the car. Something to do with the flex additive, maybe? Many Vipers I've seen with aftermarket facia's look this way. Not sure if it should be acceptable or not.??

    Which stock wheels can I run? Got any for sale?

    I would go with a polished set of 18's from MY1999-2002.. They are for sale all over the place. The newer wheels are nice, but the offset is different, due to the ebrake caliper on Gen3/4.. Any stock viper wheel will fit, but the ones I've seen dont "look" right. To me at least.. Too tall and...

    Sad Day - My 2001 RT/10 Has Been Sold!

    I don't think there was no need to get involved in painting this car... He priced it to sell with all the flaws, and it sold.. If he had painted the facia, I'm sure it would have made other areas of the car look that much worse. whats next? Nothing wrong with a z06.. They a great cars, in a much...
