    For those in states that require them, what do you do? Nothing funks up the front look of the Viper more! Diego

    Easter Sunday what a day for a Viper ride!

    Took the snake out to carve some road up to the all you can eat Lobster buffet at the local casino. The ride up on the 15 express was fantastic! Diego

    So which gear or gear shift is your favorite?

    for me it's the 2nd to 3rd under full throttle! I just love that torque pull and the put you in the seat feel! I go way faster in my drag cars but in them I am not as low to the ground nor is the cockpit as confined! I just love the feel of the Viper.:headbang::headbang::2tu::2tu: Diego

    Gen II dash ?

    What does the arrow inside the circled pod indicate? I think it's a shift arrow but it only flashes when I am in first and only part way through 1st gear? Secondly what is the wheel for in the pic that I have circled? Dash light brightness? Sorry for the crappy pics. thanks Diego

    1st nite time cruise in the Snake!

    Very different then day time cruising. The dark cockpit with the reddish glow of the instrument panel made for an earry feel. They are working on the freeways here in Diego-Town so they have concrete barriers on the edge of the fast lane with no shoulder, made the ride seem amusement parkish...

    Is 1500 rpm ok for cruising in 6th gear?

    This is my first 6 speed and I don't want to lug the tranny. On my first outing yesterday I noticed I was at about 2200 rpm doing 70-75. When I shifted into 6th the rpms droped to about 1500. The car did not seem sluggish at this point but I knew I was not at an optimum speed for this gear...

    Ok been a week since I have owned the new toy, believe it or not I still have not driven the snake. Today that all will change, playing hooky to spend the day out on the road with the serpent! Ted

    Big Dude in Viper Gen II

    Ok, I will admit I was not the best at planning this out? I am damn glad I gave up on the foolish idea of driving the car home to San Diego from Seattle!! I thought I had done my due diligence by researching who could fit in a Gen II RT, I figured I was one of them, although it would be a...

    Are Viper guys true MOPAR fans or just a specialized sect?

    I want a Viper because being a true MOPAR or NO CAR guy, the viper is the top of the heap of modern day muscle. I have owned almost every classic mopar and currently own a 72 cuda, 71 challenger, 68 Cuda, 71 Duster drag car and a 51 business coupe race car. I am looking at a 02 Viper that...

    Asking vs Getting

    I have been looking for a 96-97 GTS. Kelly Blue Book has them listed in excellent condition for 28K for a 96 and 34K for a 97 with 20K miles. This seems to be around 7-10K below most of the asking prices I have seen both dealer and private. Why such a huge difference? Are sellers getting...

    bringing a Viper in to Cali from another state what to look for?

    I am in the market for a Viper. Most of the cars available are from other states not California. What do I need to look for so I will not have problems with registration in California? Also I see a number of Vipers with salvage titles, what are the downfalls of buying a car with the Salvage...
