Well, my car was finally delivered by Gary Almond to my house near Pittsburgh, PA. I was supposed to be there for the thrill of my first Viper delivery, but my girlfriend dropped me off at the United terminal @ LAX when I was to fly US AIR. So, until I get home around the first of May, the pictures will have to suffice. I purchased the 2001 Sapphire/Cognac RT from Nelson for 71,650 without tax. I know, I paid too much. I was the one guy who looked for the perfect car for 5 months and could never live with any slight imperfection.
The car was from the Nelson Collection and was the second sold from a total of 20. If you’re interested, these guys do not negotiate price. They would not budge even $20 bucks and I had to basically resort to searching for every penny in the couch and under the seats to pay for the car. They are somewhat friendly; however returning your phone calls is not a priority. My only compliant was they scratched the rear valence trying to shoehorn to fit an oversized Dealer license plate. What can I say, the buying experience was average.
The agony of missing my trip and the scratch from the dealer plate was superseded by the exceptional coordinating and transport service that Gary Almond provided. Gary took the time and documented the whole trip with extensive digital photos and updates via phone every few hours. He extensively examined the car and noted minor imperfections to management in which Nelson quickly addressed. He was very patient and polite when he had to wait 7 hours while I frantically searched for ways to wire funds on a Saturday from So Cal. Gary was so meticulous with the car that he went to the extent of actually rigging a tarp, in the poring rain, on top my parent’s garage so the car was free of even a single raindrop. I am not one to go on and on, but for the first time in my life, someone exceeded my excessively high expectations. I can assure, his service is the only option for anyone that values their investment and is in need of transport services.
So, until I actually get to see the car in person (I have yet to see a sapphire blue car or cognac interior), the pics will have to suffice.
Take care all.
