So after 14 years of obsessing over the Viper GTS I finally picked my love affair up on Tuesday. I found the car on here in the classifieds and contacted to seller and sure enough he still had the car for sale. After an exhauting search I found the perfect car. One owner 20,*** miles and perfect. I went and see the car a few weeks ago, and then made an apt on Tuesday to have the Viper Tech go over it. All systems a go and I was heading home smiling from ear to ear. I just have to open the garage ever now and agian to make sure it is really in there, and that I am not sleep walking have a dream. Here is one picture I appologize for it being sub par but 110 degree heat index here in Charlottel today, I just don't want to open the garage. I am looking foward to meeting others in my area who share the same passion for the car as I do.

Congrats! I just bought mine a few months ago and I am still grinning from ear to ear.

You will find yourself taking the long way to work, grocery store, video store, just to spend as much time in it as possible.

Never has a car brought me so much enjoyment.
Last night I had the engine oil changed and transmission fluid changed and the Techs let me go down in the pits to observe. They say observe, I call it supervise!

Today it is getting detailed..

Vipers are so much fun!
97 RT/10 Red..

Looks great and I do know what you are going through. I still walk out and take a peek at mine regularly. 96 or 97?

As I pick up my keys to take the car out I still get the hairs on the back of my neck rising ;) I have to pinch my self when the garage door opens up.....Coor is that really my car, and that's after 2yrs! Ive not known any other car have this effect for so long.

Congrats on the new car, may it bring you as much pleasure as mine brings to me. Great colour too ;)

congrats and thanks for posting that you had waited 14 years. I am still waiting and was feeling bad that I don't have my dream car yet.

Enjoy your new treasure.

Sweet! I too, know exactly how you feel! I just picked up my '97 B/W GTS a couple of months ago! I've been coveting one ever since first laying my eyes on one back in '96 and I still can't believe I finally have one in my garage!! Congrats!!!

I still - after having the car for 4 months - go out and check to make sure it's still in the garage myself. By far the best car to own - period! Have fun and stay safe!

It looks like you got a sweet GTS. I guarantee that the previous owner is feeling regret now that his garage has an empty space in it. Congratulations.:drive:
