    Happened upon 2 Murcielagos getting on the freeway tonight

    Yeah, I guess since it was my first encounter, I was a little intimidated. Now that you mention it, they didn't really get over on me that much.

    Happened upon 2 Murcielagos getting on the freeway tonight

    I was getting on the freeway tonight, and getting on just in front of me were 2 Murcielagos! I have seen a few sitting, but to see and hear them drive is a whole new experience. They sound like they are ready to explode any second. Getting on the freeway, I kept up with them, and after that...

    engine scraping sound

    Hello all, I have heard sort of a scraping sound when I turn the car off. I don't know if this is normal, but it worries me a little. The car runs fine, and I have been chinging the oil every 3000. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

    Bet you haven't heard this one...

    Bet you haven\'t heard this one... I was coming out of the In-N-Out drive thru, and some guy walking in looked at the Viper, and said, "I want to have sex with your car!" The only thing I could do was laugh, and keep driving.

    More miles, or better care?

    I was going through the classifieds, and saw some 97's with 5000 miles on them, and started thinking. I heard that it is usually better for the car to be driven regularly than to sit for long periods of time. Is this true? I realize it may be a dumb question, but I was just curious. Thanks.

    1150 Degrees F. , no wonder it gets hot inside....

    What is better for heat suppression, ceramic coating, or the heat blanket stuff? Starting to get tired of the heat in the cabin.

    StarTech interiors

    Just a picture looks really nice, but I wonder how they are compared to Venzano.

    StarTech interiors

    Has anyone seen a StarTech interior in person? I have seen pictures in their brochures, and online, but was wondering if they are as amazing as they sound, er...look. Ok, it's late, so you'll have to excuse the babble. Thanks for any responses.

    Finally bought one!

    Congrats! I remember that feeling of waiting for my dream car to arrive. You made a good choice going with Woodhouse; Pemberton is the man. Just remember to stick to the break-in rules, and your viper will reward you once you see 1,000 on your odometer. Welcome to the Viper Nation.

    New keys electronic?

    I have to admit how dumb I am, and say that somehow, I managed to lose both sets of keys, and both fobs. I went to Swift Dodge in Sac to get a new key, and new fobs. They charged me $100 for the key, and said that they are electronically coded. Is this true, or was I taken for a ride? Is...

    Impedance Question....

    Ron, You may be best off getting a new alpine of the same size (I think the model number is MRP-F200). It may be the same size as stock. I think it retails for $200. The only thing is that it is only 40 watts/channel @4 ohms. You also might want to check out the Kenwood Kac-849. It puts...

    Impedance Question....

    You may actually be better off getting a new 4 channel amp. If you spend an extra hundred to two hundred dollars, you will be able to control all of your speakers, and be able to tune your system. Not only that, but probably a little more power, since that stock one puts out 25-30 watts per...

    Bass Shaker Plus

    Bass shakers would work perfectly in the R/T. Especially if you dont plan on changing the so called "sub". I don't have any in my car, but have experienced them, and they rock! Definitely not a waste of time and effort.

    Spiderman GTS

    Ok, I know this is three in a row, but I just remembered something. I do remember that sneaky pete was on the motor, so it couldn't have been the 2003 engine. My last post on this..

    what production car is faster???

    I think the TVR Tuscan S does it in 3.9, and the Ultima does it in 3.3 with an LS6 crate motor.

    Spiderman GTS

    I saw one the other day, and the guys in the store told me it has a 2003 motor in it. My GTS is in the shop, and I haven't looked at the engine in a while, so I couldn't really tell. The guy who is taking it around to different locations, opened up the hood, but again, I couldn't remember what...

    Rice boy Hall of Shame

    I stumbled onto this while looking at the BMW discussion board. Some of you have probably already seen this, but some of you haven't. I'm not sure how to put a link in, so you'll have to cut and paste. http://www.riceboypage.com/ It's the funniest thing I have seen on the web in a while...

    upholstery suggestions?

    Thanks for the replies. Trey, you won't get a response via email from Venzano. I have tried several times, and nothing. I heard that someone paid $9000 for a full interior! I guess I need to start saving.

    upholstery suggestions?

    I have thought about getting Venzano interior, but thought it was too expensive. I figured since i am getting a new audio system installed, I would ask them how much to cover the dash and console in leather. They came back with $5000! Does anyone have any suggestions? I would like to get the...

    Does the color significantly effect resale price?

    I have people ask me all the time if the cops mess with me, but since my GTS is almost the same color as the road, I think I "fly under the radar". I've always wondered....have the yellows gotten more harassment?

    problems with Viperware?

    Jason, Thanks for chiming in. I am glad you finally explained the situation. I just wish it would have been to me, personally. I would like to keep my order in, just let me know when they are ready to ship.

    problems with Viperware?

    I was hoping they would post something in defense, but I guess not.

    problems with Viperware?

    Thanks for the replies. Jon, I can understand a month or so, but 4 months? Shoot, give me the keys and the paint, and I'll do it myself. I guess I need to rally up some customers so I can get some key blanks.
