    Only 640 hp? WTF

    Sorry if this is a simple question/answer, but why not just deliver the Gen V with upgraded bolt-ons, take it to 675HP? On a 100K car what would better flowing headers, cats, exhaust add to the final price, 4-5K? Seems like good $ to HP figure, and accomplishes a final number that would please...

    2010 Stripes are huge....

    The stripes look so wide it's almost now a two-tone car. I'd like the stripes a lot more in black than in white. Still, it's a Viper and I like it in any combination.

    ACR paint issue

    If you can get the dealer to fix the paint, do it. If not, then fix it yourself or get rid of the car. Otherwise, if you're like me it will annoy you to no end and ruin your ownership experience. Obviously, some people care about these things and others just don't. How much more analysis...

    high flo cats alone or add the Corsa cat back exhaust

    Call JonB at PartsRack. He spent a lot of time with me explaining the options and like many I ended up with Random Tech H/F cats and Corsa exhaust. Huge improvement over stock. The best money spent on the Viper.

    Wife of the Year thread...

    My wife insisted I get a Viper and not a less expensive Corvette. She said I earned it, deserved it and needed to drive it as much as possible to make up for all the years I drove SUVs for the family's sake. The only question she asked was, "Is it as fast as a Corvette?" "Uh, yeah, no problem...

    On the important wife front, I have two adages: 1. "The General's wife is the General's General." 2. Pecking order in firm or company: general partner, then general partner's wife, then junior partner, then junior partner's wife . . .

    Want to tour the USA in my GTS. Suggestions?

    I'd consider a good GPS with updated North America map. Maybe contact the regional VCA sites and coordinate catching some meetings along the way. If you make it down to Florida, send me a PM. DON'T watch Vanishing Point, it might give you ideas.

    The fact that you are even concerned about contacting the previous owner shows you are the kind of person who would not offend anyone.

    Mock Me Freely

    No mock from me. I'm guessing your buddies don't own Vipers. My buddies just owned me for upgrading my pedals. It was worth every cent; they just don't understand.

    That's the CCW I was referring to here in Daytona Beach. They've got a solid reputation from Viper owners.

    Need wheel ideas

    You might also look into CCW wheels. A lot of Viper owner have gotten CCWs and I've yet to find a negative post on them. I also live about ten minutes away from the place in Daytona Beach, so PM me if I can assist you.
