    the RARE Viper............

    I'm not so sure I agree completely. Yes, they are rare. I think the bigger reason you don't see that many on the road is a number of Viper owners don't drive them all that much. That's why you tend to see Vipers that are 1995 or 1997 and only have 15,000 miles on them. They don't spend much...

    most frustrating search ever

    Joe's point is right on. Vipers are not like Camrys, where there are 10 on every corner. They're more rare. So it's not as easy to pinpoint a price, because wih a Camry, if someone prices theirs $5000 more than the others, it'll never sell since the buyer can go and find 10 others just like...

    Black with silver stripes GTS, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much?

    Re: Black with silver stripes, 32,000 miles, 49,990...Too much? SSR, I'd agree it's too high. I'm selling my '99 all black w/Cognac GTS with 44,000 miles for much, much, much less. I wouldn't even try to ask near $50K for it, as it's unrealistic. I'd make an offer based on what you feel the...

    Track insurance

    Don't be mislead, it is not the agent or the underwriter who has any say over how your claim is processed. It's the claims department that makes those decisions. Steve

    Track insurance

    Your policy very, very likely excludes coverage for an event like that. It can get hairy (I know, I work in the auto insurance claims business) to define what is a "high speed driving instruction course", but for the most part the answer is a flat out no. You will not be covered, and there...

    So soon after buying my Viper, I've decided to sell it. '99 GTS

    Re: So soon after buying my Viper, I\'ve decided to sell it. \'99 GTS Lee00, If I knew how to pull it myself, I would. I was going to get an ad, but then like I mentioned, I had seen a few others post here, so I thought it was OK. I apologize and certainly didn't mean to violate any rules...

    Re: So soon after buying my Viper, I\'ve decided to sell it. \'99 GTS 98GTS, I was wondering if my post was breaking any rules or not. I certainly didn't mean to cause any issues. I had seen others post about it, but didn't follow the threads to see if they got yanked. If mine gets yanked...

    So soon after buying my Viper, I've decided to sell it. '99 GTS

    Re: So soon after buying my Viper, I\'ve decided to sell it. \'99 GTS Thanks for all the positive comments guys. No question about it, I absolutely love the Viper. It's quite fast, handles great and has so many of the "comforts" that my Cobra didn't have. Plus it's gorgeous to boot. If I...

    So soon after buying my Viper, I\'ve decided to sell it. \'99 GTS It's quite a long story, but after having my Viper for just over a month, I've decided that I made the wrong decision for my family when I bought it. I debated for months and months on whether to buy it, and I think I did the...

    MY CAR IS TOTALLED

    I'm really sorry to hear about your car. As far as leaving a kid behind, as a father, I'd have some very evil and ugly suggestions for that driver. I'm in the insurance business if you need any help with that end of it. I also have a 1999 GTS, all black, Cognac interior, which I'm looking to...

    Will adding stripes effect value?

    grang insurance???

    Yes, almost all insurance policies value cars based on ACV. That's much easier to come up with on cars like the Camry, Accord, Taurus, etc... as they're a dime a dozen and don't have any collectible value. Cars like the Viper can be much more difficult to determine the "ACV" because the car is...

    Geico question (I know...another friggin ins. question)

    Bill, You probably won't be able to get really accurate information, and it wouldn't apply to you anyway. Underwriters base premiums on a number of factors so everyone's situation is different. They generally don't offer a special low rate to get someone in and then raise the rates. They'd be...

    Will adding stripes effect value?

    agentf1, I'm not sure which suburb of Philly you're in, but I'd probably let you drive my car as well (I only say probably because I'd just like to meet the person and talk to them before I give them the keys). It really doesn't bother me either to let someone who's truly interested in the car...

    Hit something on the freeway, need advice

    Hopefully, I can help out here. I'm a manager of an auto claims unit for a large insurance company, so I deal with this kind of stuff day in and day out. Don't ask your insurance agent if you're at fault or not, they don't make that decision. Their job is to sell policies. The claims...

    very rare viper for sale!

    I guess it's a matter of how much you value 'ol Shelby and his signature. If you hold him in high regard, it may add value for you. Having come from the Cobra replica ownership group, I can tell you that was a huge debate all the time over there. For my own $.02, I could care less if Shelby...

    Squirrely Viper-normal?

    Yes, my '99 GTS is also very "squirrely" on uneven pavement or groved roads, if it's really rutted, it's quite scary. The car seems somewhat twitchy by nature. I think it's handling limits are very high, but to squeeze that last 10% out of it in corners takes some big cajones. Steve

    Questions about Vipers

    I'll take a stab at answering the ones I can. 2. I don't think it's much different than other sports cars. Check for smoke, unusual noises, get a detailed service history, owner history. Get a feel for the owner. Is he the type that would likely race it or beat it? Insist that the seller...

    And so it starts. Clunking in the back end when I go on and off the gas?

    Re: And so it starts. Clunking in the back end when I go on and off the gas Chads description better fits my car. To say it's a clunk isn't quite right. It's more of a bang. I hear it mostly if I shift gears, let off the clutch without hitting the gas. Or if I'm in the throttle, then lift...

    Re: And so it starts. Clunking in the back end when I go on and off the gas My '99 GTS that I just bought has 43,000 miles and does the same thing. It's mostly when I shift gears and let out the clutch, it makes a loud clunk, definitely coming from the rear somewhere. I'm suspecting a...
