These are eye-catchers in my opinion. I have seen a couple of 97 red GTS cars with yellow wheels that were add on's...there are subtle differences in the badging on original "1 of 14" cars...i.e., the yellow Viper decal on the sides of the hood is smaller than that used on 96 RT/10...and the "GTS" is found below the "Viper" signage, NOT on the same line on sides of hood. I am SURE about this on a couple of the "1 of 14" cars, but certainly can't speak for all. NEAT CARS!!!

I converted my GTS to the ketchup/mustard combo. It is real easy to immitate. So yes I am an imposter. It really makes the Viper stand out even more. As for value, it probably has no effect. The yellow cast wheels are "worth" less than the stronger forged ones.

The GTS' that were equipped with the "Gold Package" came with the gold sparkle wheels, gold emblems and Black leather. There were only 7 of these offered. See the above link.

Yellow and Gold were "options" The production was low because not many ordered the specific options. Too bad, specially the gold wheels which are my favorites. Anyone with a (factory
