Viper Owner
I\'m extremely disappointed in the lack of \"Copperhead\" details or pictures.
Hello;
I've had a 2K deposit with our beloved Bill Pemberton since last Sept/October and even Bill doesn't have any official pictures to share. I am getting very frustrated, as I love my SRT-10 Roadster, and the Copper Metallic could be sooo cool if it's anything like the Prowler's "Mandarine Orange Metallic".
SRT/Daimler need to at least put a roll-bar on this car if they are not giving us anything more than a special color, interior, and wheels.
My current Viper is one of the first Silver SRT-10's from January of 2003. I really hope that SRT/DC are planning on adding some performance enhancements to the Copperhead Viper; unfortunately, the talk here does not seem to think anything will be different after 3 model years.
WHY NOT?
I ordered a beautiful Porsche Cayenne Turbo and it took 6 months to get it. The option list was incredible in it's offerings. The Turbo is a hand-built car and you can spend whatever you can afford.
I realize that emissions/ regulations are a problem. SO... why can't we order a factory installed rollbar, shocks, a Quaife Diff, Cat-Back sport exhaust (ok, maybe that would not meet DOT db level restrictions), etc. The SRT-10 is a "Hand Built" car, right? I can see no reason why SRT/DC can't let us "option" our Vipers with these mentioned items.
Anyone care to share Copperhead pics, facts, etc? How about supporting the "Factory Options" request I would think would be so logical? Why can't we order factory installed "K&N" filters, for example?
Let's express our desires folks! Oh, I forgot to mention that I would also order .373 rear-end from the factory if I could (yes, I would expect an up-charge).
Just makes Cents for D/C and makes us happy and saves aftermarket hassles!
