    What would it take for you to trade your current Viper for the GenIII?

    <<Sure the GT-40 is probably a pipe dream, but once again I'm voicing what I hope is a constructive opinion EARLY enough for it to perhaps do a teeny-tiny bit of good. I've also sent my enthusiastic "Build it!" plea directly to Ford. Ya think maybe Ford knows that it's potential buyer pool...

    I can't decide what to buy, ACR or not. Any suggestions would help.

    Re: I can\'t decide what to buy, ACR or not. Any suggestions would help. I think that in the distant future ACRs should be worth significantly more, but I can tell you (after just selling a 2001 ACR), the ACR package does not currently add anywhere close to the $10000 cost over a GTS for resale.

    "Older Vipers Taste Like Chicken"

    Re: \"Older Vipers Taste Like Chicken\" I've got to agree- this potentially is going to be a very big problem. Already can't find brackets for the front splitter on my GT2, which are parts that will be needed eventually by any GT2 owner who drives the car since they are under the front fascia...

    Question for '98 GT2 owners

    Re: Question for \'98 GT2 owners I've got GT2 #007 (just like James Bond!), it has the photos- they are pretty grainy and there are no photos that clearly identify it as this particular #007 car.

    Viper, Please show us real pics of the SRT in the proposed colors!

    <<How about an answer on the stripes that many of us want to know about?>> I have purchased an R/T-10 each year that stripes were offered- a white with blue stripes '96 and a blue with white stripes '97, and haven't purchased a roadster since (bought 2 GTS's with stripes instead)...

    I just watched it with Windows Media Player, cable internet connection, worked fine. Maybe try it again?

    I Will Kill That Mouse

    Jim, I have held off getting a car capsule thinking I couldn't hook the Viper up to a battery tender once it was in a capsule. How do you get the power cord from the car to the wall when the car is in the capsule- does the car capsule have some sort of provision for that?

    Having Hard Time Selling

    I have to agree, unfortunately, asking price is too high. I sold my sapphire with stripes ACR (sticker about $13,000 higher than the RT mentioned above) for $75,000 a few months ago (PRIOR to 9/11)- I wanted to move it quickly, and probably could have/should have held out for a little more...

    I got my GTS-R!

    Rich, I checked out exoticar.com and did a search for "Viper"- 18 items came up, none a comp coupe model. Did you see one there, or were you just mentioning the link to exoticar as a good possible resource that might get one? Thanks

    Could someone please post factory authorized pic's of the 03' colors?

    Re: Could someone please post factory authorized pic\'s of the 03\' colors? Will stripes be available? It has been far too long (model year 1997) since an RT had stripes from the factory!!

    VOI 7 Nashville-Sept.2002

    Just to clarify, it really isn't just the time of year that is a problem. Unlike some of the previous VOIs, VOI 6 in St. Louis was strictly under a "no-kids" regime. At that VOI, children could not be paid participants in the VOI. There were no night-time daycare/activities provided in...

    VOI 7 Nashville-Sept.2002

    "Compare the numbers from ST Louis to the other Voi.s They were down and their were more VCA Members than ever before." I agree that the choice of city was part of the reason for the decreased interest in VOI 6, but also many people who otherwise would have gone were unable to because VOI 6 was...

    VOI 7 Nashville-Sept.2002

    If Detroit is no longer the plan as we were told (which is a shame, I was looking forward to seeing the '03 Vipers on the line and the great car museums), and Las Vegas and Monterey are not possible for some reason, I guess a trip to Nashville will work. I just hope that, as several people...

    JonB cuts through DC red tape on ACR/GT2 belts!

    Can we keep the original belts for the GT2s and ACRs and have the new replacements sent to us or must we somehow "turn in" the defective belts?

    Really losing my patience with Dodge....

    Agreed- I have cancelled 3 Viper extended warranties, the ones that I cancelled without using the dealer went much better. Your extended warranty should say something to the effect of "if you don't live near the dealer anymore or the dealer is not in business anymore, call 800-...."

    Oil leak advice - pics

    I just got my '98 GT2 back after having it worked on for an oil leak- according to the Viper tech, there were actually two sources of leaks- the rear main seal, and also leaking from the bolts into the oil pan. He put sealant in the threads of the bolts. I plan to upgrade to the 2000 pan...

    Time intervals for changing coolant, brake fluid, etc

    The recommended time interval for oil changes for Vipers that accumulate only a thousand or so miles annually is one year, according to Viper Magazine. How about brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid? Is every 4-5 years for very-low-mileage Vipers that never see track use about right?

    The thing is pastic

    I've noticed this rusting problem too- most Vipers have rusting bolts on the rear underside panel and most Vipers have rust in the weatherstripping of the lower door panels and the weatherstripping by the rear hatch in GTS/ACR/GT2 models. Anyone have great home remedies for getting rid of the...

    Venom2K Garage????????

    The Viper Pit does indeed exist in real life and looks just like the photos- all of us Central CA VCA members are very proud to have it in our region! I think that Jerry was just trying to say that the Viper Magazine cover was done in photoshop by him.

    Leaking Oil Pan (2001) that was not the Oil Pan

    My '98 GT2 is leaking a small amount of oil. My 5 star dealership has been unable to locate the part numbers they think that it will need - for the main seal and main seal cover plate. Anyone have those numbers? Also, (and I hope this is not too dumb of a question), is there an easy way to...

    Anyone have the part number for a valve cover?

    Anyone have the part number for a valve cover from the passenger side- this is the side with the oil cap and only one snake logo. For a '98 Viper (they are all the same though, aren't they?)
