I know this sounds absurd but to settle an argument I need to know from other Viper owners, how many of you find it harder to get in on the passenger side Vs the drivers side

Well, they're about the same, but I'll have to say driver's side because of the steering wheel.

Which side of the car is hardest to get in on?


Alcoholics Anonymous : <----the 1st step is to admit you have a problem :rolaugh:

Ok seriously, here's my 40k miles Viper experience opinion....

I find it harder to get in the passenger seat....damn ******* girl is always in the way. With that said, I still prefer it :D

Glad I could help. Don't hesitate to ask for more help in the future :D

Seriously!? I would say the passenger side is harder to get into because I do it so rarely. I have the technique down for the drivers side. Hope that helps....

It's much harder for me to get in on the passenger side because that means somebody else is driving my Viper.

You meant to work on it right? I can't imgaine getting in on the passenger side and closing the door.

I also don't think that my hips swivel that direction, only the other way. I'd be screwed in the UK.

Jeff likes to use it as an excuss to not let me drive the car when we are together. He has no problem with me driving seperate in the other Viper, but never wants to sit in the passenger side. He swears that its hard for him to get into the car from the passenger side, and I said that was stupid and just a lame excuss to not let my drive.


Let it be clear that he had the 94 since new and I bought the 08 but he drives the 08 and I drive the 94:dunno: Funny how everytime I buy a car he drives it till I buy a new one then he drives that and I get the older car:rolleyes:

I feel uncomfortable in the passenger seat too. To me, it feels tighter and hard to get in/out.

Yah, the passenger side of the interior was designed for a girl!

Robert, sounds like his excuses are working.

As someone who got in both sides, the driver side is easier to get into. Sorry Robert, guess it's in our 'driver' genes/jeans! :) ~~~jules

Definitely not designed for a certain 'gender' at all...my mini doesn't work EITHER way! ;);) ~jules

We think the mini works both ways ;)

As far as 'Jeans' go, they can have a tendency to get a little tight for some of us guys - ever notice how slow some of us will slide into the seat?

It's sometimes caused by your miniskirt Jules!!!

Don't think that some of us guys don't notice that some (usually hotties) slide into their seats slowly ... while wearing their minis :):).

We'll consider the girl the winner if the guy actually trips or groans while getting into his Viper. NO Touching! well... maybe a little?

Oh, the slower we get in, the better~!!! (Plus we gotta watch those dang side sills anyway~!)
The groaning is AWESOME...;)
Leslie: Yep, sometimes it CAN be faster in the passenger seat...:) :) :) :) :) ~jules

Well, ... it does free up the hands and , can't write that ...

Who's groaning? Getting in? or after?

Ummmm, same place as "inject the venom's". And Robert's.

I was thinking that YOU were probably thinking of distracting the driver (Mike). Otherwise the groaning is not awesome, it's an expression of pain while in the act ... of getting in. 'Good' groaning usually requires some help from the other gender (the passenger one

I would say the passenger side would be harder to get into from my experience but as others have said, probably from a lack of practice.

I find the steering wheel actually helps getting in and out since I use it as a handle. That and lack of practice make the passenger seat entry feel like writing with the alternative hand.
