Build you own GTS

[RikRok]

This site has probably surfaced and been discussed before, but I just ran across it. It is a kit car company that has a GTS look a like.

A Viper with a V-6?...LOL

A '95 Gen 1/2 GTS? 17" wheels, smaller brakes, V6 but it comes with a "new torque convertor" attached to the automatic?

About the same weight as a GTS.

It's evil, looks like a Viper, but probably gets beat by every Honda on the road.

That just makes me want to puke. I cant believe they are actually in business.

Does Chrysler have any grounds to sue them? If so, I wish they would. Thats an embarrassment to the "Viper" name

 

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

This is a joke right?

"Multi-branch exhaust system". What the hell??

 

[Denny Wagner]

Another site shows the list price for the RT version TURNKEY at approx. $28,000+ !!

You can by a REAL RT for that!!

Oopps....I'll be back after I go change my underwear!!

I was out with my FE the other day and a guy asked me if it was real or a kit car. I thought he was crazy. What do you know. What a piece.

I'm pretty sure the only time an auto maker can sue for something like this is if the seller tries to sell the car as a viper instead of a kit car

 

[Photog1]

insulting to the Viper!

at particular company is 30 mins for m my house, they have been around for years and did use a few stock viper parts in the build, cant say ive ever seen one on the road though. Im guessing they've only sold a handful of them. I guess if they wanted to take it further Chrsyler would have legal grounds

Chrysler doesnt own the 'Viper' name over here, another small kitcar company owns the name after registering way back in 60's

there's an 'RT' version for sale here
Dodges for Sale

That looks HORRIBLE!.. the hood/fender swoosh is all wrong too..

I'm with you guys-what is the point. I guess when your that far across the pond you can get away with that copycat BS and not many will catch on. But I guess except for the fact that you could get a real Viper for same price, its no different than having a lambo kit car with a honda engine right.
