    Run in with GT3

    I have run both a Viper GTS and my GT3 on a road course. The GT3 is faster, it pulls just as hard, handles better and brakes waaay better. The fit and finish of the Porsche is truly amazing. Trust me, the GT3 is a drivers car. By the way it gets 26 MPG on the highway.

    Run in with GT3

    I own a GT3. I had previously owned a 2000 Viper GTS. Very different cars. The GT3 is an amazing car, as is the Viper. Both awesome. Lack of garage space and funds or I would love to have them both. Several magazines show the GT3 running 3.9 seconds 0-60.

    96-97 Porsche turbo how fast???

    The GT3 is not all wheel drive. It IS faster on a race track like Mid-Ohio or Watkins Glen.

    96-97 Porsche turbo how fast???

    Read Car & Driver...GT3 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. I know what you are saying about horsepower but the GT3 is every bit as fast as the Viper.

    96-97 Porsche turbo how fast???

    A better comparsion is against a non turbo Porsche...A 996 GT3. I have owned both and let me tell you the GT3 will beat the Viper in a straight line and on a road coarse.

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    Anders, I agree with you...a supercharged Viper with brake upgrades would be hard to beat. Both great cars! Doug

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    I know the torque SOUNDS low but it isn't. The car has almost as much kick as my GTS did. 4.2 second 0-60 times are not achieved but a car that is low on power or torque. Let me tell you boys this...after owning both a Viper and this car the GT 3 would beat the Viper in EVERY catagory. If I...

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    The track confirms it...Porsche GT3 is much faster on a road race track than the Viper. I thought the Viper was quick but the brakes and handling on the GT3 are better than my GTS. Both great cars...I do miss the Viper.

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    I am telling you this car is superior to a Viper. I have run 1:46 minute laps a Mid-Ohio in my old Viper. If you have run there you know this is fast. I am sure the GT3 will beat it. If I wanted to drive a Lexus I would drive my wifes car. Again, I LOVE the Viper but the GT3 is just about...

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    I got Black with Black interior. Red belts and red stitching. The car has as much gawk factor as the GTS. As some of you are aware it does not look like a regular Porsche. Paid less tha MSRP, very fair consderinig even the big dealers only get one a year. If I had the funds and the garage...

    Viper GTS VS Porsche 911 GT-3

    Just traded my 2000 Viper GTS in on a new Porsche 911 GT-3. I love the Viper but this Porsche blows it away. Fit and finish is awesome on the Porsche. Dealership is no comparision. Dodge dealerships are normally not very nice and not used to dealing with expensive cars. What a difference at the...

    Is now a bad time

    Correct me if I'm wrong but a stock Viper is worth more than one with Mods.

    Is now a bad time

    Catwood, I would like $57,500. Car is absolutely perfect. Don't need to sell but thinking about a new one.

    Is now a bad time

    I am thinking about selling my 2000GTS. Is now a bad time? Will prices continue to decline or will they stabilize? What is a fair price for a "perfect" 2000 GTS, red no stripes, 3200 miles?

    Brake upgrade

    I have a bone stock 2000 GTS. I have gone to three viper Days events at Mid Ohio. They are a blast but I am concerned about my brakes. Rotors are starting to show some gouging. What is the best upgrade for a car that will be driven mostly on the street but also a few weekends at the track? Do...

    Viper Days

    SUN RA KAT, What was your best time? We had bets you would be around 2:00 by the end of the weekend. What a monster you have. Very few people need a supercharger on top of 450 HP...pretty cool!

    Viper Days

    Viper Days is Great. I was at Mid Ohio Saturday. What a great group of people. Thanks Courtney & Skip for being so organized and professional. Had a personal best of 1:46.40. Kenny, what is your log in name?

    Fluids change

    Jon, Viper Tech did it. They gave me a 10% discount from their "normal" price. Oil change normally $120, they always charge me $79. P.S. I asked them to use DOT 4 fluid in brake and clutch change. Any downside? Thanks for your help!

    Fluids change

    Just got oil, coolant, tranny, diff, brake and clutch fluids changed. $728 with tax for all. Is that a fair price? They also inspected brakes, greased hinges etc.

    Fluid(s) change

    How often is it reccomended that the fluids are changed? Specifically...brake, clutch, coolant, rear end and transmission. My car is two years old. The only track time has been a couple of Viper Days. Thanks!!

    Almost got bit by the snake...bad!

    To answer all your questions: The Viper is a bone stock 2000. Bought in October of 2000. The car has 2300 miles. Air tempature was 85 degrees. The road was clean and dry. We were in a SLIGHT turn. I did not speed shift but did take it to redline in first then shifted very quickly to second then...

    Almost got bit by the snake...bad!

    I would not have believed it could happen so fast...I was out driving last night with a friend. I was showing him how powerful the Viper is. About 10 minutes into the drive we were at a stop sign. I got on it hard, hit second and before I new it the rear end came around. It was a miracle that we...
