    Who here knows Stangs? Steeda info wanted

    I'd hold off, the Shelby Cobra GT500 is supposed to be out sometime as a 2006 model. Looks to be rated at 450+ HP bone stock...with a little pully mod...might hit 500. And, list price is supposed to be about $35K.

    Re: i\'ve joined the club.... just bought a 94 RT10!! If you don't mind posting...can you give a figure on what you paid? Milage? Just trying to keep a finger on the pulse of the market....

    Drove Right By a Cop and Valentine One Did Nothing

    He may very well not have had his equipment on, or may not have had any equipment in the car. Not every cop carries radar. And not too much reason have it on while driving anyway, as I understand it, they can measure speed when THEY are moving. I think the cops have to be setting still to have...

    Why put up an ad for a car, with no picture??

    Ok...is it just me, or are you dumbfounded by people trying to sell a car for $30K-$70K for instance and not include at least one photograph, or at least a link to a photo? :confused: I mean, that is serious cash to lay out, and I can't imagine anyone not at least requiring one photo before...

    Anyone know the law in Texas regarding vehicle emissions?

    Hmm...I see big money in learning how to 'hack' into an OBD...and either clear or fake codes..... :rolleyes: cayenne

    Aftermarket RT/10 Sidewindows

    I thought I'd seen reference to people putting in real electric windows into the older RT/10's. Do any of ya'll know anything about this? Is there a kit or is this a total custom job? Any idea on expense and how well this works out? cayenne

    Lease buyout question

    Yeah..I was a little puzzled over this too...sales tax on a used car bought from a private individual? I don't recall ever having to do that before...

    Has this ever happene to you in your Viper while parked?

    I think Dennis Miller summeed it best this way: "I don't think you should be allowed to drive it you are old enough to remember when there WEREN'T any cars...."

    How important is ABS to you? Worth the extra $ for an 01-02?

    This IS similar to what I experienced in my first (and so far only) car that had ABS. I used to have a 97 C5 vette. First time I had to stand up on the brakes to avoid someone stopping short in front of me...damned pedals started jumping under my foot...horrible chattering noise..I though brakes...

    DO LASERJAMMERS WORK??????????

    Also, as I read once...driving with you headlights on will help decrease the range at which the laser gun can get a reading with you... I've got an older V1...it is starting to get false positives on laser (red tail lights), and there must be some other radar detector out there that is really...

    When you drive a Viper someone is always trying to outdo you.

    That my friend, is the new "Mr. Fusion"....it allows you to recycle trash into the reactor in order to supply the 21 gigawatts into the flux capacitor. Really handy for when plutonium is hard to find.... :laugh:

    GEN I prices

    Well, that's not entirely fair. A number of those higher numbers (I just browsed them) have some extensive mods. The first couple I saw on the link had superchargers...etc. I keep a pretty close eye on Autotrader. I do limit the searches for more in what my range will be when I can get one. I...

    GEN I prices

    Yup...many I see out there...93-94 with mileage in the low to mid 20's...go for about $30-$32K...sometimes lower, but, this seems to be what I'm seeing as avg. going prices. cayenne

    Are Gen I parts becoming scarce??

    I'm seeing lots of post about plastic parts...I'm picturing dash boards...etc. Is this the more predominate type of parts that are getting scarce...or is it also the parts relating to engine/drive/suspension....in other words...the mechanical side of the car that are disappearing? C

    Are Gen I parts becoming scarce??

    Hmm...now that is scary...is starting to make me think twice about getting one. I mean, I don't mind paying to get something fixed...but, it is another thing entirely to worry about not having the parts to fix a car that you need... Are 3rd party manufacturers pickup up the slack on this? C...

    Are Gen I parts becoming scarce??

    I found this as part of another thread, and it has me asking some questions. I'm still working to get a Gen I, hopefully within the next year. I'm impressed at the reliability I hear that they have. However, I'm a little concerned that I've heard a couple of times here on threads that parts...

    Which Viper is right for me?

    I'm still trying to get some financial matters situated, but, I do still plan to get a Gen 1 as a daily driver. I'm single, no kids (that I know of)...so, why not? I just have to have the hardtop and windows..as that I live in New Orleans...and it does rain a lot here. That, and covered parking...

    Emissions help...(emissions won't take the car)

    Re: Emissions help...(emissions won\'t take the car) I'm surprised at all the posts lately about emissions checking, I was under the impression only a couple of states did this, like CA and AZ... What all states require emissions checking? I've heard some states now monitor for noise...is this...

    replacing stock radio

    Hmm..I thought I'd seen a car player that would, but, will have to look that up. One thing I'm looking at...is a media player like the iRiver, that can hold 30-40G music, and getting one of the FM transmitters so it will play through the head unit in the car. This way, can easily take and remove...

    replacing stock radio

    You should look into Ogg Vorbis as a compression standards. It blows away mp3 and wma...and it open source. You won't have to worry about some day not being able to play your own music. WMA is MS windows proprietary, and they are already introducing DRM (digital rights management). Sure, you...

    Rocky Mountain Radar C-450 Radar/Laser Detector/Scrambler

    Depends on the state you are in. I've only heard that one or two ban radar detectors...somewhere out east? I've not lived in a state that banned them...and I don't take my down when passing a cop. When I was last pulled over (light was yellow, I swear)..I did have the courtesy to turn the V1...

    Ahhhhh, I failed Emissions....

    Hmm...I find this a disturbing trend. I wonder what the specific laws are concernting ODBII and such. I mean, you do buy the car...so, you own the hardware, are they prohibiting you from modding it in ANY way you prefer? Are you obliged to not tinker with the onboard computer...? Pretty soon...
