    Hot wheels red card

    I might be willing to trade for one of these before too long. I'd like to find one locally but thus far none have made it to my area. DiecastViper.com says they haven't made it to the midwest at all.

    0-60 mph help....

    I think your GTech is off AND, or course, there's those tires. My 01 very consistently runs 4.4 to 4.5 with a best of 4.23. I use the GTech. Times have always been in the fours, out of 15 runs on 4 different days. Conditions were not optimal. Rural road in the cool of the morning. Good for...

    Custom made Viper clocks

    Can you make one with the pic in my avatar? If it looks even 1/2 as good as HardViper's GTS I will definitely take one. Thanks,

    Thoughts on possible purchase.....

    Awesome price on the car. Re: wheels, If you don't feel the need to keep the ones that come with the car, you can easily count on a few grand coming in on the sale of those. Always someone out there looking for the latest version of factory wheels.

    2006 Ertl NFL set

    Here's where I bought my set. I have zero affiliation with this guy. Worked out to be $5.27 per car net of shipping which seemed reasonable to me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ERTL-NFL-FOOTBALL-CLASSIC-RIDES-2006-VIPER-SET-1-64_W0QQitemZ220030243992QQihZ012QQcategoryZ206QQcmdZViewItem Great pix...

    2006 Ertl NFL set

    Had a chance to pick these up as a complete set. Figured would be better to drop the coin now instead of trying to hunt them down individually over the next few years. Pretty nice, wild team graphics and logos on each car. Interesting to note that even though the GTS hasn't been produced in...

    HAS DC CANCELLED THE VIPER?

    Honestly, I think you could build a business case BOTH ways. Keep producing the Viper or kill the brand. No, I'm sure DCX is not making $$ on the car. With the low volume, it's hard to believe that they are. Yes, Dodge has become their American performance division and the Viper is the top...

    Did they announce the 2008 Viper?

    Unfortunately, Bobpantax is probably right on. I wonder what the possibility is of DCX "adding lightness". 560 hp in a 3k lb. car would be a nice start. Honestly, I'd like to see a traction control system with an on/off switch. Can't add that much weight and if you can turn it off, who cares?

    What makes a car different?

    Great feedback, thank you. Ok, I think I've further refined how I'm going to collect going forward. Mostly, I only collect 1:64 (or close to it) and 1:18 scale. Although, 1:24 seems to be thrusting itself forward in the stores. For me, there needs to be a noticeable difference in the car...

    What makes a car different?

    I guess I'm kind of in the middle of this too. I agree with you Chad. If it's cheap, why not? If they are loose, packaging goes out the window, it's just the cars at that point. I'm just noticing it more and more. Another example, I've got two Johnny Lightning cars, both red RT/10's...

    What makes a car different?

    I'm curious on opinions of what people collect as different cars. Use the pic below as an example. Exact same car, both current available production, same manufacturer. Very different packaging. Would you collect both? Would you consider them as two items when you add up your total number...

    New Maisto in 1:64?

    I almost forgot about that website, DiecastVipers.com. Thanks for reminding me. What a great site! As many 1:64 cars as I have, it's amazing how many I DON'T have. Always fun to "discover" a new one.

    VIPER IN A HOME COMING PARADE

    Man, everyone is getting sat on around here but me! :D Seriously, I'd take significant precautions for your car. Are you going to have a girl(s) with heels on sitting up there? Scarry.

    e-bay fraud

    "(I wonder if they will take a post dated, third party, out of country check even tho I have no ID?)" AND, that check is already written for $7,000 more than the sale price, they just need to refund me the difference, however, since I'm such a nice guy, they can keep 10% of the overage for...

    Dodge Viper Daytona on E bay link

    What did those go for new? Sticker was about $75k for a stock GTS, how much over that?

    New Maisto in 1:64?

    Stopped by Drugmart tonight for a few things and or course, had to check out the diecast scene. They had more than I expected and found the two below. The Blue/white stripes car has different wheels than the ones from a few years ago. Sorry I couldn't get a good pic of them. They are not...

    Ultrarare models, Concept RT/10, RT/10 Pacecar and Veleno?

    Anyone know what kind of wheels are on the 1:1 car above? They look kind of like Kinesis K58's. Anyone know for sure?

    Wrecked Viper from Ohio- Anyone on here??

    No one I can think of here in OH. I agree with Gerald Levin above. How the H*LL could one person, let alone two, walk away from that? Don't tell me that kid is back on here!?!?!? ;) :p

    Gen II sales

    The fact that the car was moving away from the original design is what finally pushed me to buy one. One of the best decisions I've ever made! :D

    I couldn't pass it up! Bought another Snake for my Garage!

    Re: I couldn\'t pass it up! Bought another Snake in my Garage! Funny, I've often thought that my next car will be a TT GTS. Enjoy to open motoring while the season lasts. Congrats.

    Suggested price on an 01 RT with 18k miles

    If you can buy a 01 RT, less than 20k miles for close to $40k... the car has issues. Been hit before? Raced? Heavily moded and returned to mostly stock? Something. Clean, no stories car less than 20k miles, high $40's Clean, no stories car less than 10k miles, over $50k. Heck, clean Gen...
