Don't know where they find their cars, but if your imbedded in a hobby long enough, you know who has the low mileage cars in their collection.

Bottom line is that many of the super low mileage cars have gone away. What may seem to you as overpriced may turn out to be a bargain in the future.

Yeah...many, many, many years into the future. I don't see anyone paying $70K for that car right now.

Regardless if they got 70 ..65 or 60... They are holding very well for value and still extremely Atttactive. Performance Classic Style and 1st GTS to come out. They still command good money and Legendary has some nice freakin cars!

Exactly! Mint, ultra-low mileage 96 GTS Coupes are getting pretty tough to find these days.

Unless you have been to legendary and seen inventory up close and personal, you realize they don't dicker on there prices. That's the difference quality cars bring.

Viper Owners are definitely our worst enemies...You all want your cars to appreciate but you want to buy at
NEON prices....Keep the negative car values to yourself. Do you really need to tell people what to sell and buy their cars
for ?

Legendary Motors recently sold two low mileage '96 GTS Coupes, each with 700 miles, for their $70k asking price, so yes, buyers are paying the money for pristine examples.

Quite the investment considering they stickered for more than that and they had to be maintained, housed and insured for 18 years.
Not.

Not trying to be negative. I love the B/W cars and owned one myself. Right now I think a sub 1000 mile car will get around $60K or so, but I personally have not seen $70K.

Hopefully the GTS becomes the next Ford GT. It is similar in a few ways, it has low production numbers, especially the 1 year only colors, it is an iconic body style that never goes out of style, descent performance and they are getting harder and harder to find nice low mile pristine cars. I cannot think of another car that made as big of an impression when it was released as the Viper. I can see the low mile perfect examples of these cars hovering in the 60's for a while. I know I wouldn't get rid of mine for any less but then I am biased and not motivated at all to sell mine.

It seems as if it is the Viper owners who are the ones that seem to want to undervalue them. I always found this as odd.

One online now on the auction site we all know and love with a BIN for under $60K and the car has 200 miles on it. As I said in the post above...not seeing $70K on these right now. I'm sure it will happen, just not there yet.

P.S. I have 2 Vipers and would love for the values to increase. I am simply stating facts. Never said that I like pricing where it is, or that the cars shouldn't be worth more as I think they ought to be, but the market is what it is.

That right there is a

Legendary

price.

This is perhaps the most well documented Dodge Viper in existence until the next most well documented Dodge Viper in existence is put up for sale.

Tax, Title, Tires, Fluids. After that I see an 80k dollar 20 year old car, I'm a realist. If you wait a little bit you could pick up a used 2013 for that.

You should list it for sale on here. According to a lot of forum members, for $39K, it will be gone the same day you list it. How many miles does the car have?

If you car is clean you should be able to get your 39k with no problems. I find everybody has a different definition of what a pristine car is. Not saying your car is not clean as I obviously have not seen it. Could also be how you are marketing it. Even the finest of Vipers take time to sell, just the nature of the beast.

Let's all go to the FGT website and post negative pricing and thoughts about the car and watch the prices go tumbling down. Really? Prices are what they are. It's going to be a while before Viper prices head North. The website chatter has little to do with it.

THIS^^^ I think people forget that there are a lot of owners who rarely ever get on forums.
