    Gosh , are we maybe just so passionate we miss what others see?

    I just think when you can roll into a local dealer who has more than enough vipers on the floor and he will sell it to you for under invoice should tell you something. Did they flood the market with them? Is it overpriced for what it delivers? How about word of mouth? I sold my 04 SRT right...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    Gotcha. Why would they do that? I found myself saying that with many of the auto makers showings. The more I hear about the Z06 the better it sounds. Seems the SRT took most of the risk jumping in the 500hp game first and just left room for others to improve and follow. I'm not sure what...

    05 ZO6 - ?

    http://www.chevrolet.com/corvettez06/ Can't believe it wasn't at the LA show but it's deffinitley up on the Chevy site. With the HP/Weight ratios they are claiming it's gonna be a fast f***er.

    04 SRT vs Z06 again

    Just a tad frustrating that you have to void the warranty to dig into the potential of this awesome V10. Would love to see something in the way of a Viper SRT GT. Factory tuned possibly supercharged monster. Does anyone think this is a near future possibility? Vette has the Z06, Mustang / Cobra...

    04 SRT vs Z06 again

    Yes, well one thing I noticed about his 04 SRT is it feels seriously detuned. The gears feel like the ratio should be half what they are. I was on the FWY in 3rd and didn't even notice it. It is deffinitly a better building block to mod it seems. Just surprising that they left it so tame from...

    04 SRT vs Z06 again

    My close friend just took delivery of a new SRT and we have been keeping close track or our street conquests as our new cars come and go. I have seen the Z06 debate off and on and when he went up against a stock 04 the results were surprising. The end result being the Z06 beat him 6 out of 7...

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

    Ford will honor their numbers of 3500 but the loop hole is the next generation ford GT that comes after it. This is a test for ford and if it's a home run you know damn well they will follow the GT up with a slightly modified model and either mass produce it or make another 3500-10,000 unit run...

    What!!!...A 4,501-lb Benz quicker than a Viper???

    Yes, numbers are wrong. I raced an SL600 last week in my 02 GT2. The SL being automatic there wasn't much driver error possible and I slayed it from a stop and from rolling start. The 3rd time I let him take off before I did and still beat him. I might have some problems with the SL65 soon to be...

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    After looking into it further Joseph touched on what goes on to Avoid the Tax. I don't do the actual paperwork and shifting around but I do know it involves making the transaction seem as though there was a trade-in involved. I guess you just need someone with the ability and know how to get it...

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    Even I would be skeptical after reading the back and forth on this entry. LOL Never thought I'd get a pouncing like this. But no prob. I'll sell it locally or to a friend. Seriously you should look into it though. Saves quite a bit if you go through cars like I do. And it may be that it's a...

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    And I was targeting this towards Ca residents. Of course I would expect anyone to do their DD and find out their local laws ect. This is NOT illegal. Good to see people are looking out for others here. Like I said just trying to pass some savings.

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    I see where this back and forth is going so I'll just leave everyone to their "expert" opinion. I have bought three cars this way and several people at my office and friends have as well. I guess we all got "lucky" if that's possible at a DMV. No harm meant. Just exposing a loop hole that...

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    I know the invoice price I have it in front of me. I never said the personn was geting it at dealer invoice. And I have bought 3 cars this way, my GT2 included. Think of it as someone bringing a registered car of theirs to another state and registering it there. Do they pay tax? No. Just...

    04 SRT-10 Black - $79K and no Tax if Sold soon!!

    Nice of you to chime in but if one buys a car out of state and receives a car registered to him in that state, all he has to do then is transfer the registration to his state paying only the reg fees. I have done it 3 times. Sorry I didn't explain all the nitty details but I thought I could to...

    When the next big change for SRT?

    All I ask for is some consistant numbers from all these mag articles. 4.2 here...3.9 there, 12.1 or 11.7. Tested on the same track together.. but wait maybe they weren't. I mean what's so hard about giving straight up numbers and being honest about tests, when and where they were done and the...

    My New 04 SRT on the way - Mod or Not?

    My New 04 SRT on the way - Mod or Not?

    Well my Black 04 SRT-10 is on the way. My question is. I would like to increase performance but I do not want to do anything too radical as to make resale or maintenance a problem. I have been cruising the forums and web sites reading about header kits yielding 50 RWHP and other natually...
