Spiderman Spiderman.............Spideman Viper

[RedLiner]

What the F@!@!@ was someone thinking when they decided to paint this GTS?? Except if you have an obsession with spiderman of course, this paint scheme would not be for many. I think they will have a hard time selling this, unless they throw in a new paint job with the car.

Any takers?

I kinda like it, though I would'nt buy it for the paint. Was'nt this a promo/raffle car for ? reason for the paint. (I don't recall)

 

[superdave019]

Yeah I would have to say if I purchased that car, I would get it re-painted ASAP! Doesn't look good to me.

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

I sure wouldn't repaint it , as it was done for the movie Spiderman and given away. It looks much better in person, and is likely to have some collectability to the right person. It would be worth a ton less on a repaint, and though some may not like it, it was done well.

 

[DAMN YANKEE]

Very rare Spidy Promo cars that will be worth quite abit when it is run up the ramp at auction in 30 years. Low miles and lack of interior web sticky slime makes it quite valuable to the person that wants to tuck a very stock rig away for later.

The original owner lived in the town next door to me. I drove by and looked the car when he had for sale 2 years ago. I can find out if he's still around if anyone wants to reach him for info.

That car seems to come up for sale every year. I kind of like it, looks a hell of a lot better than painting a friggin dolphin on the hood!! Remember the gucci interior Viper?
It could be worse but for me, I like it.

As I recall, there were two of these promos with this paintjob...

If the dealer wants to sell the car you would think they would make it's history available.

 

[Ricketts]

I remember when Cingular was giving that car away. I wanted to win so bad, I wanted to win just so I could own a Viper. ha ha ha

 

[V10SpeedLuvr]

I saw this car locally while it was on tour during the Cingular contest (way before I bought my Viper). I got in my car at work and heard the DJ mention that they were on location at a Cingular store with a Dodge Viper. The store happened to be on the way to where I was going. I stopped by a Target, bought a disposable camera and took pics of it and got a guy to take some of me with it. It was a cool looking car, I'd drive it.

Cool poaster , gotta have one if you own the car.

 

[Roy]

hmmm 2008 I guess the car isn't for sale anymore...

 

[KNG SNKE]

Holy 3 year old thread renewal!

 

[netapp]

Yes, there was 2 of the spider man promo cars, the other one is in the dallas auto museum. A couple in Texas owns it.

awww the link does not work, I'm probably better off not seeing it

 

[Mopar Boy]

awww the link does not work, I'm probably better off not seeing it

Thats cause the link expired 3 years ago.

 

[JohnnyViper]

figured it would still be for sale

 

[JohnnyViper]

i wonder who ended up buying it?

 

[Mopar Boy]

The car is in TX owner by Wayne and D'ann Rough.

 

[JohnnyViper]

thanks Mopar

With their collection its probably OK as an "extreme" example. In your driveway next to the Durango it'd be a very bad thing.

Fully agreed!

 

[Viper 95 Kim]

Now the challange is to find the 2nd Spiderman Viper. Whos got it.

 

[JohnnyViper]

i finally broke down and decided to look at the spiderman viper online to see what it looks like. Not as bad a I thought it would be. Still a crime IMO

 

[Matt M PA]

I guess I just don't "get" that car as a promotional thing. Same goes for the ridiculous OCC theme bikes for companies.

 

[costanZo]

I don't mind it. I would never buy it, but I've seen worse...

 

[JohnnyViper]

i think the only reason they buy the themed bikes is because OCC has very high viewer ratings and being on the show is the promotion, i bet after its handed to them it just goes in some execs office or garage
