    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.

    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...

    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?

    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...

    problems with Viperware?

    Have any of you had problems with Viperware? I don't know if mine is an isolated case, but I am having the hardest time getting hold of them. I ordered something, they said it was on its way, nothing. Wrote to ask, no response. Called to ask, no response. Checked credit card bill, no...

    Hit 1000 miles tonight!!!

    After 5 weeks of restraining myself, I finally hit 1000 miles! On a side note, how hard is it to change the front brake pads with th supplied floor jack? I have the pads, but I don't feel like paying the dealer $200 to do it. Thanks in advance.

    Oil Change & Lube cost?

    I just took my GTS in for its first oil change, and they are gonna charge me $200. Is this a normal price? If so, I think I am gonna get the low floor-jack, and do it myself from now on.

    Speakers in GTS hatch?

    Does anyone know when they moved the "subwoofer" from the upper console to the rear of the hatch? Also, I can't really tell what size the speakers are in the back. I thought they were 6.5", but they could be 8". Thanks in advance.

    Question about bushings

    Are these a good first upgrade for a stock GTS? I heard that they smooth out the ride a little. How hard are they to install without a lift? Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Have any UK members raced a TVR?

    I have seen them in the showroom, but not in action. How does the Tuscan Speed Six compare? The interiors in those are amazing!

    Pre-luber question

    I have seen the pre-luber offered by Roe Racing, and am considering buying it to cut down on engine wear. What I was wondering is how useful it would be on other cars? I have a Chevy Silverado, and plan on keeping it for a while, so I was thinking about getting this for the truck as well. Any...

    How does everyone feel about prolong? (Sorry if stupid)

    I don't know how stupid of a question this is, but I'm going ahead anyway. Does this stuff really work, or is it a scam? Just curious.

    POWDER COATED WHEELS

    I want to get bigger wheels for my GTS, but the way the HRE's are made, they actually look smaller than the stock ones, because the inside diameter is smaller. I was thinking of maybe having them powder-coated, and would like to see some pics of any Vipers with the painted, or powder-coated...

    About to become part of the Viper nation!!!

    I just put a deposit down on a 2002 Graphite GTS, and hopefully soon will be part of the Viper nation! I am really excited, if you can't tell, because I have been dreaming about this car since it was introduced. When I first saw pictures of the GTS-r concept, I thought I wanted a 2003...

    Is there such a thing as a discounted price on a new Viper?

    I am planning on putting in an order for a 2002 GTS, and was wondering if there is such a thing as a discount, or should I resign myself to full MSRP?

    ACR VS GTS?

    Is the $10,000 really worth it? How does the ACR drive around town as compared to the GTS? Also, how many miles is the break-in period? I was thinking about buying a Viper somewhere else and driving it home so that it would be broken in with highway miles by the time I got home. Any thoughts?
