    Viper GTS-R Inaugural Race - August 4, 2012 Mid-Ohio - American Le Mans Series

    Sorry if this is a dumb ? but does anyone know if the GTS prototype will be in attendance? I really want to see the car in person, and this is in my neck of the woods...

    Few more shots of 2013 SRT Viper GTS High Altitude Testing

    I truly have to wonder why they would test the car with a non-production ride-height. I would think this would have a significant impact on the ride, handling, etc.

    Gen V Price???

    I think I would be willing to pay in the 130s for the ACR edition. IMO that is somewhat comparable to the Porsche equivalent (911 GT3) from a pricing standpoint. Paying that much for the GTS would leave a slightly unsettled feeling in my stomach, knowing that a more aggressive version was coming...

    Gen V Price???

    I have to respectfully disagree... I've had three Porsches, and after owning an amazing 997 911 turbo (610hp, ceramic brakes, etc.), I decided that while the car was great, it just didn't seem very unique, even after a bunch of aftermarket mods and what not. You see 911s everywhere. And, with...

    IMO it really sounds like the former... In recent years, I really think Porsche has set the tone for customization, though others (notably Ferrari, Lamborghini) have taken this to new heights in terms of materials, craftsmanship. It sounds like SRT is attempting to replicate some elements of...

    Heh, me too! Though I hope they are priced somewhat reasonably (2-3k) vs. 4k+ as I really like to drive and put 10k+ miles on my fun car usually, in a season. I think the lifespan on the P Zero Corsas is in the 6-8k range.

    Hey, thanks for your thoughts on that... Sounds like we have a similar situation in terms of climate. Temps change really quickly each day, too, out this way. Tirerack has a quick blurb on storing Track & Competition DOT tires...

    So I took a quick look at Ralph's twitter feed, and couldn't find any mention of this date... Does anyone have a link handy?

    Hey, so can I pick your brain on why you didn't opt for the track package? Did you seriously consider it? While no official pricing is available, I think the P Zero Corsas are going to be pretty pricey (~4k) based off guesstimates off tirerack and the like.. I may do one or two track days a...

    Heh, I assume you are alluding to the mention of a cup-holder insert? I thought I saw something about how the insert allows for the use of a cup holder, but is not a cup-holder itself...

    Yah, I hear ya, though for me the pain is around the ACR not being available right away. I highly doubt the ACR will have a different (read: wider) body, or anything beyond a slight HP bump, a little less weight, and a lot more aero... still, I wish that model was available immediately. I know...

    Nice build! I think white looks great on cars with great angles and curves. The current gen M3 looks amazing in white with the carbon-fiber hood. I'm sure the Gen V will blow that away... Sounds like you are aiming for the purist build! I just double-checked the option list and you should be...

    Guys, perhaps a bit premature, but wanted to get an idea of what people were planning on ordering... Also hoping to start a discussion on some of the relative merits of options and packages. I attempted to put together a quick build sheet template that you can use to denote your build. Feel free...

    GEN V 'Track Edition'...

    Ah, thanks for the clarification! I've owned several blue cars, and IMO, blue is a hard color to get right. I love your choice of blue in renderings, and I hope that the actual color they do go with is close. Some of the pics of the mule in blue look good, and in others the color looks a little...

    GEN V 'Track Edition'...

    Austin, are you using the actual shadow blue pearl color for the GTS, or is it a guess on your part? I've seen some of the pics of the blue mule, and they don't compare to the color you use in your renderings...

    Gen 5s rolling out...

    I thought that too, and then I saw the top-down view in the popular mechanics article, which helped clarify things.
