I really appreciate the hood on the E-types I had every time I need to open my hood. I'm always somewhat reluctant to do it because a- if a second person isn't around it twists, creacks and catches on parts on the opposite side.
b- the paint gets scuffed when I close it.
Its the worst hood...
Michelin should've shut their yap, and taken the possible resulting bad publicity. Instead of arresting the entire proceedings to safeguard their precious image.
Re: This is a Catastrophe! I win Car Show, local paper calls my Viper a Vet
He means the generic Corvette. Like kleenex, scotchtape or frigidaire. It means any expensive, impractical car that a "normal" person would never own.
Re: My GF said there was no way I could fit a file cabinet in the viper....
No switching to the daily driver to go to Home depot?
No towing an unbroken Viper behind you're SUV?
There still are a few good ol' boys left! :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
Let's go again, let's go again. Sure he wasn't going to go to the auto parts store, buy a clutch out of his after tax wages, then crawl underneath the car for weeks till it's repared.
Same here. I sold my last 911 a month ago. The Viper's brutality keeps the overindulgent weaners somewhat at bay. Its this crowd that can really kill a marque for the enthusiasts. In the seventies they did it to Jaguar, now the 911. Thank goodness the Viper exists.
Re: Why vettes,gt40\'s and vipers are a waste of corporate resources
Bruce, you have to think outside the box. In this case the box is North America, where all speeding on roads are banned.
Super cars and their top speed capabilities are still very relevant to Europeans.
Auto makers don't...
Sorry I don't know how to do the quote thing, but I was thinking the same thing as Randy.
I have a similar garage 25'x25' and currently I can fit 3 cars in if I back-in the two at the ends. That's why I haven't persued the garage lift idea.
Re: 300 Km/h..it\'s a blast but will never do again on open road
Here if there's one other car ahead of you on a three lane highway, he will cut you off.
Quebec roads are also in such poor state that they're best travelled on by hovercraft preferably with the windshield removed.
There's usually a Viper contingent at the Molson Indycar race here in August. The Grand Prix is just too popular.
They are given ultra secure parking at the track, and the security has no sense of humor. Its organized by the local club in Quebec. I usually go by subway and grab a ticket from...
I've had sports cars all my life, and I've figured out one thing about this.
They are chick magnets to the extent that they show a potential for the guy to spend money on chicks. If that's not followed up on, then it's just a pretty sight for everyone from 5 to 95.
Females seldum make moves...
No wonder whoever they were chasing didn't want to be caught. They don't just give you a ticket but actually arrest you for speeding(?) in the land of the free.
Most guys just aren't tough enough to daily use a GTS. They're not comfortable with a car that scares them. Its not fool proof like other supercars.
However they'll never admit that and somehow come up with an explanation that makes them look smart.
I thought I was the only one doing reservoir bleeds on the clutch master cylinder. The fluid color became much lighter than the black it was when I got the car.
I read my thick orange shop manual to bleed the system. I couldn't figure it out. When I looked underneath the car everything...
You don't sound like an SUV guy who can afford to keep a Viper for image enhancement, so I think you'll want to drive it as much as you can. To a true enthusiast, it offers every enjoyable sports cars feature in overdose. If you think you like it now, you'll love it later.
I would suggest another Dodge dealer.
I had a similar problem with my Ford truck's rusty brake rotors. Apparantly they're not covered under the 100% warrenty above the salt belt. The problem was the dealer wanted $75. to tell me that and they said I won't get my truck back if I didn't pay...
