    Best way to spend $50k?

    There are some really good deals on vipers to be found. I bought my 99 ACR in October and got a REALLY good deal, all stock with 3400 miles (boughtin Mountain View). the 97 rt-10 for sale in the classifieds NOW for 43K with 23K miles on it is a probably a really good deal considering its...

    Z06 to GTS

    getting back to the point of the original post. is 2001 z06 + 26K = 01 gts. I'd say no. Looks like dealer trade in would be about 40K for a car with your low mileage. private party probably 45K. truth is there are a lot of new vipers out there under invoice. you could probably get a 0 mile viper...

    CAR WON"T START

    Re: CAR WON\"T START had the same problem. hit the alarm deactivation on your keyfob. it did the trick for me. the alarm system tells the car not to start after a battery disconnect. this was very frustrating and ultimately a very easy fix. i did end up replacing the battery (under warranty!)...

    Brake squeal

    i had squeaks in mine at 5000 miles. do yourself a favor. for $150 and no more than a couple hours mechanic time get a pair of ebc greenstuffs. they run much cleaner and will save you the annoying task of having to clean those bbs wheels so often. i just had mine done. i'm very happy with the...

    Help me pick a color for my Viper!!!!!!!! ASAP

    the rally green from a 69 z28 is an intersting suggestion. that color i believe was also used on mopars that year though i forget offhand the color code. most notably on the 440-6-pack superbee and 440-6-bbl roadrunners. i want to say FE8 was the paint code. also for suggestions you may want to...

    Who has ACR's with no comfort group?

    Who has ACR\'s with no comfort group? Howdy folks- Being the new owner of a second hand no comfort group car, I thought it might be kool to hear from other owners of such cars and find out what they are being used for. according to the registry page there were 9 1999's and 14 2000's. No info...

    found out another difference. an acr without comfort group (like mine was) also does not have an antenna amplifier module for any after market stereo. not insignificant. was quoted $245 for it. Part #4709109 Jason

    GTS & ACR difference

    99 acr had koni adjustable shocks - they rattled. they were replaced by another vendor (DCS?) the following year though are not considered as desirable for some reason, even though the konis are the source of the rattle. 2000 acr's also have upgraded oil pan. engine modifications include cast...
