Well, as some of you may or may not know, I wrecked my 2006 Blue/Silver coupe 4 months ago. I had been on the lookout for a Gen IV coupe to replace it, but not having much luck in finding the specific color combo I was after. I was okay with that though as winter is around the corner, and I had no reason to be in a hurry.
This car had been available for some time, and while I was full speed ahead on a Gen IV, this was always in the back of my mind. It had a perfect mod list, including a Paxton and supporting mods, and I couldn't get it out of my head spending considerably less for this car over a Gen IV. I've always been the modding type, so an already customized Viper suits me perfectly. I decided to go for it, and picked it up last weekend!
It's a 2006 coupe with 24k miles. To go along with the Paxton, its got a DLM tensioner and upgraded heat exchanger, VEC3 engine management, ATI balancer, larger injectors and in-tank fuel pump, Belangers with no cats, Corsa, KWs etc. The list goes on. I'm in the process of having it retuned to around 650rwhp (it's a little higher now). I have added my old 360 Forged wheels, and have Moton's to install as well as my 3.55 Unitrax diff. I will be polishing the Paxton and adding a polished intake manifold and throttle body. I may or may not add polished valve covers...sometimes I think I would like the color in the engine bay. To round it off in the spring, I'll add a new 2008 hood.
I have to say, the blue/silver was my personal favorite color combo for an 06, but the compliments this red coupe has been getting has been nothing short of amazing...I guess everyone likes a red Viper
