So I drove an 08 Venom red coupe over the weekend. I just couldn't get pass the color. I'm thinking either Red or Blue on the SRT10 for me. I forgot to ask how tire life is. I got used to NSX rears wearing out within 15k. How do SRT's do - also when lowered?
I also drove an Aston...
Both sound nasty! But that Belanger set up has to be one of the best sounding Vipers I've heard. Not that I've heard many!
I'm assuming its the fact that it isn't just cat back but includes headers and high flo cats as well. What does such a setup cost?
I'm actively on the prowl for the new toy and the SRT10 is back at the top of my list. Among other things, sound is important to me as it directly enhances the driving experience as well as the presence of the car exudes. My GTS didn't have the best exhaust not stock. So I went with a muffler...
I found a nice blue 08 Coupe that I'm interested in. While I think the blue is pretty, it seems red is more universal and can be dressed up or down i.e. dressy evening etc. Whereas the Blue seems more pure toy kinda like a yellow or orange on lambo's etc. Harder to envision pulling up to...
Yeah I know it's all speculation at this point. But I did read that the V design will be "less racecar and more sportscar" and designed to draw a market of folks under 45 - whatever that means. So the less outlandish/aggressive styling will either help or hurt the previous generations. That...
SCSViper,
Modded M6 to Viper is an interesting switch. M6's with exhaust sound unreal. Like an acutal F1 car! And they're refined. Your switch seems like it would remind me of my NSX Viper GTS dilemma. I'd miss the power of the GTS bu when I only had the GTS I'd miss the refinement of...
Cubican,
Nice tasteful mods. I generally have not been looking at verts but yours is sweet! Frisco is also my old stomping ground. If I were still there I'd have to get a ride ;)
Excellent! Thanks for the feedback. You mentioned it feeling like a coupe with the top up... I assume it doesn't twist with the top down as well - after all what sort of support could a ragtop provide anyhow!
I'm looking at Vipers and have primarily only considered Coupes because I hate convertible flex. You convertible owners do they shake, rattle and roll?
Seems a bit soon for an all new Viper. Wonder how the appeal/value for the IV will hold up. Seems the GTS is more iconic of a shape. So the IV's had a relatively small impact on the III's values. Whereas the IV got a little more dare I say "tame". Perhaps the more tame newer one will also...
Bonkers,
Didn't mean to irk ;-)
Rather than looking for my next "Bling" I would think my list of cars shows the opposite - Evo, S2000 for example are far from bling cars. The reason I had the GTS for only 8 months is that I suppose after coming from the NSX I missed the build quality...
Hey folks,
I'm actively shopping for a new toy and am considering an SRT Coupe, Nissan GT-R, Aston Vantage or a 996/997TT. I am an ex-Viper GTS owner about 8-9 years ago but for some reason either my old ID expired or I can't recall the password and my email must have changed - hence I'm a...
