More great comments Chris. But when you compare the Z06 to the Viper you need to talk in terms of Z06 volumes. I have heard their planned volumes are only about double the Viper. And the engine is more hand built than the Vipers (which also has the Ram SRT for volume).
If the Z06 volume is less...
Chris - great post. But a few comments:
First, for the first 3 years of the Viper (RT/10) the Corvette ZR-1 had more horsepower (less torque) and was about the same quickness. So the Viper has not always been faster than the Corvette.
The 2 year certification and lots of dollars comment does...
Re: What\'s the best battery tender?
1 month is about the max I can go without a tender. More than that and I need to jump or recharge it to start the car. That is both with a Gen I and a Gen III. And I have heard the early Gen II's were much worse due to the security alarm.
So Joe, sorry to...
I like it. Has a lot of the Crossfire and some ME412 styling cues.
If it were priced similar to the base vette and had comparable performance there would be no question which I would prefer.
Wonder if added volume would allow DC to make the SRT and Firepower frame aluminum, similar to the Z06.
That screw is part of the window assembly. It does not hold on the trim, but is used to hold the window in place (you may already know this).
Not sure of the size though.
Same comment then about Louisiana.
I would say that yes it would be totalled. I don't remember if you stated it but it looks like a 93-95. The insurance company is only going to value it at around 30k (a point to argue of course). The damage indicated looks to be in the same neighborhood as the...
He has a Gen I. I know my Gen I required grounding the green wire to reprogram the fobs. Gen II and later have different alarm modules. The reprogram steps are in the owners manual.
Is Minnesota a no-fault state? If so I would start repairs and fighting the ticket simultaneously. If not I would do everything possible to get the ticket erased before initiating repairs.
Also, absolutely demand new OEM replacement parts. I would bring up safety aspects of non-OEM parts or...
Here Craig is the summary for 2004. If you look at the facts, the NA OEMs and European OEMs have been in lock step for 3 years. So where is the so-called superiority?
Okay, I'll bite, based on the JD POwer Initial Quality Survey, how do the American OEMs compare to the European OEMs? I presume that is the JDP survey that you were referring to.
If I remember correctly you need to ground the green wire comine from the alarm module (below steering column). Not sure of the procedure but it was something like holding both buttons down at the same time the module wire was grounded.
Now come on Craig. You have driven or even been in these cars? Oh, and what European company are you referring to that does not use union labor? You may be surprised to hear that the European labor unions have been equally as powerful as the UAW.
And please, clarify things and indicate what...
Craig STFU. When you get old(er) and wise(r) then you can chime in with real experiences. Your internet knowledge is full of bs.
So please tell us all the cars that you have personally owned or driven for any length of time. Until you have Volvo's and the other cars you speak of in your resume'...
At what temperature. The EBC Greens are awful when cold. The first cold temp stop is not a confidence builder as you think you will need to put your foot through the floor to get it to stop. I will not use them again. I want maximum stopping power, regardless of the dust.
Re: Just Changed to Polk Speakers. What to do with the back speakers?
Just checked Circuit City. They were $99. Found them at cardomain.com for $85 with 0 shipping and 0 sales tax.
