Nice weather = new pics of the GTS
Sold the car for $45K after over two months on the market. During this time I received more than a few messages from viper owners saying that I was selling it too cheap and needed to raise the price. I'm not sure why this community tries to get so involved with trying to manage the market for...- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
I never said that. I said the stat is unsubstantiated and meaningless and also explained my thoughts on the subject in posts above This is like talking to a rock.- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
Ok, well how can I argue with such well articulated explanations. You're certainly correct that the past owners are not keeping the sales going.... Nobody is for that matter. But you're right, the completely unsubstantiated statistic is very meaningful and provides great insight into the cars'...- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
Not saying that the statistic is wrong (it's meaningless regardless), but how the hell would "Ralph" know if I'm new to vipers? My previous cars have all been bought from, and sold to, private parties. Dodge has no records of me and would be none the wiser if I decide to walk into a showroom and...- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
A viper enthusiast does not need to be a current or past owner. It could just as easily be someone that fell in love with the car when they had a GTS poster on their wall in 1996 but never had the means to buy one. All of a sudden a new model comes out and they can scoop one up with a full...- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
The fact is that sports car buyers are bombarded these days with shocking performance figures and new or significantly improved versions of cars are coming out constantly. Unless you can create something truly evolutionary, then cars like the GenV are doomed to stay in the buyer's peripheral...- MSPGTS

The current and future state of Viper sales and technology
In a world of 665 HP mustangs, 700 hp challengers and 650 hp corvettes, the viper sits in the marketplace like a chain-smoking woman at the bar that's past her prime. She may have been hot at one point, but nobody's lining up to take her home anymore. SRT had a chance to do what they did in 1996...- MSPGTS

Thanks! Those are FM5's on the mustang, but they would have to be a few inches larger to even come close to clearing the viper's brembos :rolaugh: The car is on Autotrader. I've been meaning to list it in the classifieds section but haven't gotten around to it just yet.- MSPGTS

Nope, haven't sold it yet, but it is currently for sale. 3M actually used the car yesterday for some marketing photos of the new carbon fiber film. Can't decide if I like it or not.- MSPGTS

Nice weather = new pics of the GTS
You're probably right, but I'm going to let someone else enjoy it. I'm sure it will go to another good home and be well cared for. For now I'm going to concentrate on polishing up the mustang build (1,300 hp) and continuing to tinker with my daily driver (STI). I'm positive I'll have another...- MSPGTS

Nice weather = new pics of the GTS
I love the car and it's been an absolute thrill to own, but I find myself babying it to the extreme and not wanting to put miles on it. I want to continue building a stable of cars that I can get a few rock chips in without stressing.- MSPGTS

Yes, the mustang has an 80 mm, but the engine it's attached to is also somewhat unique. If you take a close look you'll see what I mean *evil grin*- MSPGTS

Yep, I purchased the car from SoCal about a year and a half ago. Good eye Also, the fox body being "no slouch" is an understatement. It makes the viper feel like a Prius- MSPGTS

Nice weather = new pics of the GTS
Thanks! It was always my favorite as well. When I was looking for a GTS, there was no other option in my eyes. It's just too bad that it was so bright out, the color looks washed out. It's a deeper blue in person.- MSPGTS
