    $219K Ford GT vs. $80K Dodge Viper SRT

    I remember how much dealers wanted to gouge me for a new T-bird. After seeing one and how FUGLY it is, I passed. :P Now Forbes magazinbe has the new T-bird rated as one of the all-time overhyped cars. IMO, the Ford GT will soon join those ranks.

    Your Input Means Everything - SRT Styling

    How about replacing the frame with a CF tub? Dropping some weight and stiffening the frame is more important to me that all the riced-out CF panels in the world.

    What kind of jobs do Viper owners have?

    Official trainer for W's herd of flying butt monkeys.

    SRT/10 vs S2000

    Tell all your Gen2 friends to put down their crack pipes. These cars don't look anything alike. I took these shots in my driveway yesterday. Something odd happened to the colors in the late afternoon sun, as the Honda isn't that washed out- it looks very close to Fly Yellow in person. Color...

    Mopar Accessory Question

    RTFM* people- there is one already. There is a "hibernate" mode that turns off the computer, keyfob receiver, etc. and has made a significant difference in how often a recharge is needed. It involves an odd incantation of the ignition key and door locks, but it works. *RTFM: Read The Friendly...

    Mopar Accessory Question

    Yes to both. I would also like to see a Homelink system in the visor or mirror. Since I like most others in the Viper Nation have garage openers, this would be a terrific feature to add. Having an autodim mirror that tells me when the outside temperature is near freezing is a safety feature...

    Viper SRT-10 Coupe Equipped with Double Clutch Transmission?

    Interesting reading. Here's a few links: http://autozine.kyul.net/Award/AutoZine/AutoZine_Awards_04.htm http://aftermarket.theautochannel.com/news/2003/01/08/152540.html Apparently, this is the tranny design for the Bugatti Veryon in a 7 speed variant, so the design must be capable of handling...

    Factory fob boring, MGW to the rescue! (pics)

    I guess what I really want is a Viper key that works like the Lexus & BMW keys- no fob needed. Then I would be happy to add that really cool light fob.

    Too bad they can't make a replacement for that Mopar fob.

    Customer Satisifaction Survey

    Personally, I was more than a little annoyed by all the survey mailing lists that DCX sold my name to. I gladly filled out the one from DCX and gave a glowing report of Woodhouse Dodge. (of course) As for all the rest- I filed them in the recycle bin. I never got such mailings from Lexus...

    OK - People are just dopey - on E-bay right now...

    When I was trying to sell mine on eBay, I saw loads of people pass it by (Red- on the ground $87,000), so that they could bid up the "right to buy" something unseen with no delivery date for $14,000+ over MSRP. Apparently, the morons haven't figured out birth control yet.

    SRT-10 trim items

    Golly- that's not very pretty. http://www.vipertrim.com/srt_RW9502CCSMF.html# I think I want something more subtle.

    Lo Tire lite?

    Pressures were fine all around. (27 lbs) Must be an anomoly from losing the battery.

    Lo Tire lite?

    Anyone with a shop manual know the proper incantation for this? It seems like such a PITA to arrange a shop visit for something so trivial.

    Lo Tire lite?

    My battery ran down- that is the life of a no-miles garage queen. Since recharging, the low tire pressure indicator has been blinking. The tires look OK, although I have not pressure tested them yet. Anyone see this, or know how to reset it? Is this just an anomoly of the low battery state? Of...

    Side mirror puncture marks

    Now back to our regularly scheduled program... I looked at my mirror- same thing. Umm... except they are a very superior RED color. ;) I could care less. If this is the biggest problem the SRT-10 has, it is a truly excellent automobile.

    2003 SRT - COUPES, I have 2 ???

    Worse yet- I noticed that my MSO says "coupe" as well, but even worse- it lists the horsepower as a paltry 65. So why am I stuck with a $3,000 guzzler tax for such a lowly rice burner? :D

    I quit...

    Not sure yet, as there are sooo many opportunities right now. The first thing is to get that foul taste out of my mouth, and recharge my batteries. (Can you say Otra cervasa por favor?) :cool: After spending a few weeks with children who will grow up (mine), it will be time to plan what is...

    SRT-10 Hardtop - Photoshopped

    This may be way out in left field, but I rather like what BMW did with the Z3 coupe. I have wondered what the SRT10 would look like as a sport-wagon? The P1800ES was truly beautiful in it's day, and I've seen C3s with a similar roof line. Perhaps I've been standing out in the rain too long...

    No SRT-10s Advertised in VCA Classifieds...Why? NT

    I see at least 7 listed there. Jay set up a seperate SRT-10 section of the Classifieds.

    I quit...

    Not true in Washington. I can sell up to 4 cars a year without meeting the registration requirement. (details here) So it looks like this car will be sold as "new" by me to the first titled/registered owner.

    I quit...

    Hmmm. So I guess I may have some more paperwork to do for the state, as I'm already listed on the MSO )as well as the sticker). I will have to check with the state people on this, as Washington may be different.

    Lee- What do you mean by "open"? I have the MSO- looks like there is room for a few more sellers to sign off. PM me if interested. Hoosier Daddy- There are things worse in life than giving up posessions- like giving up your dignity to keep them. Like I said- I'll be back. Bill is more than...

    I quit...

    After working for my current employer for 9 years, I've had enough. The company has grown and changed dramatically during that time- not all for the better IMHO. So Friday I put in my notice- time to start my own company again. Sue and I have been contemplating this for quite some time now, so...

    SRT Owner's Manual

    The pragmatic approach I have seen these on eBay, although all I find today is a service manual set. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2403991854&category=34218) Your manual may turn up there- take heart!
