    Anyone ever run toyo 345/40/17

    I am running them on my GTS. They are great for street and drag racing. I would not use them for a road track or autocross though. The side wall is pretty thick for that application.

    GEN V Viper picture at VOI 11....

    I wouldn't trade my Gen II Final Edition for it, but I am considering buying it rather than a Gen IV ACR. (For a track car....I will wait for the ACR version that Ralph said would happen)

    How low do you think they will go?

    Cars depreciation the most 10 years after they are made. Then they stay low for about 5 years then they start to climb with inflation. Cars like the Viper and other low production high demand cars will start to rise quickly in about 15 to 20 years. Right now you want to buy, not sell. Poor...

    Berated for owning a Viper

    Well I only drive mine where I can keep an eye on it. I don't take it to work because I can't watch it and jealous people are out there. I would be go ape#$(% if someone keyed it. I drive my GT500 to work and worry a bit about it. As for my best line for jealous people....."Might as well...

    Considering Selling

    Actually the Gen II vipers are going to start to climb in price as they are starting to become rare, and are highly desirable. Car Collectors have confirmed that cars depreciate to their lowest point 10 years after they roll off the lot. After 10 years they hold steady for a few years then...

    Why doesn't Dodge more actively promote the ACR Viper?

    Well that movie with Angolina Jolie (Wanted? I believe) features a SRT Viper which will give more publicity to the Viper than just about anything else. My biggest problem with Chrysler/Dodge is their lack of promotion. You go to a toy store and you will see tons of Corvette's, Porshe's...

    Repost? Another 08 (SSG) bites the dust before leaving dealer.

    Honestly, I think a lot of people who drive high horsepower cars tend to overestimate their driving skills. Driving schools are great for learning to drive and to help with the hypothetical loss of control and how to regain it. Unfortunately, only experience with loosing control helps. You...

    Constant Code problem mysteriously vanished!

    With Dan just nod your head and pretend you can comprehend what he is saying and then just do what he tells you ! And yes he does build rocket ships (on wheels).

    Hit and runners need to DIE!!!

    Honestly with all the idiots in the world today. I would guess I would put the damage of putting a cap in someone's knee as equivalent to scratching my Viper. Sorry I just don't put the value on human body parts that I used to lol! Fact is the guy hit the car, caused damage and then drove off...

    I-Charger (very interesting)

    lol if Dodge was smart they would have it as an option from factory! That would make the Zr1 guys cry though.

    2008 QUALITY CONTROL ISSUE on my SSG Viper

    I know everyone expects perfection and it should be for the price we are paying. I would look at the other side of the coin. It is something that can be corrected and you have a nice looking green machine!

    EPA asks Auto makers to End Horsepower War

    I have no problem with making Domestic Cars more fuel efficient, but leave sport cars alone! I don't even understand why two seater sports cars are not given an exception to the Cafe rules!

    Car Alarms

    Yes it would matter where you mounted the camera, or if more than one camera could be installed. If you only had one camera, I would say covering the drivers side would be the most vandalized area, followed by the passenger side. Figured partial protection is better than zero. Maybe even put a...

    Car Alarms

    Well I just bought a new GT500 Shelby to complement my 02 Viper. (needed 4 seats to pick up the kids from school, and I needed a new car for driving to work). Anyways, the Viper stock alarm is fine because the car is either in the garage, at a car show or I don't leave it out of sight for...

    Calculated cuts are Chrysler's best hope

    The Viper sports car, while lovely to look at, doesn't make sense in the Dodge lineup. Dodge needs performance models, but an $84,460 two-seater is too far removed from the rest of the brand's lineup. The $37,995 425-horsepower Challenger SRT8 is Dodge's natural flagship. lol anyone else find...

    EPA to Automakers: The Horsepower War is Over.

    Well there is always the positive side to look at. If the requirements cause auto manufacturers to make less sports cars, the demand for them will go up. Used sports cars then will also go up in price.

    Unflattering Comments About Our Beloved Viper

    Seems like the Viper is being judged in categories it was not built to compete in. The interior is plastic. So what is wrong with plastic? Is Carbon Fiber better? Sure but does it make that much of a difference. With the exception of the housing that covers the Tranny, no other part of the...

    Viper Misconceptions & Falsehoods

    I believe that portion is true. Chrysler owned Lambo and the engine block originated from a pickup truck. Lambo's fingerprints are all over the V10.

    Help with a GTS Purchase

    Just don't get Red! We already have 3 Gen II Red Vipers In WNY that are fairly active drivers! I think there are two Blue with White stripes, one Grey and that is about all I know about the GEN II's in WNY. I bought my Final Edition in Feb, my best advice is to contact Chuck Tator and Dan...

    Insurance Quote

    I am 36 with clean driving record, I have my 2002 FE insured with an agreed upon value of $75,000 through Haggerty. I am paying about $1200 a year with $1000 deductible. I think your rate is also determined on the fact if you live in a city or town and what state you live in.
