    GEN V ACR?

    No one knows and if there are those who know they aren't talking.

    A viper accident in SSM

    We can probably ignore the "trying to miss a deer" story. Hope they are both OK.

    GenV Cost of Ownership

    My wife had a BMW 540i that she drove less than 5,000 miles per year. We had it service once per year including an annual oil change. She now has a Mercedes SL550 and we are taking it in for the first time next week for an oil change. It has 2,800 miles on it. I have had my ACR for 4 1/2...

    7:15 Ring Time in ACR by VCA Member

    That's definitely not a 2010 shifter. I have an 08 ACR with a 2010 shifter installed and it's about half that height.

    Carbon ceramic brakes for the Gen V

    I'm not an experience track rat. I took the ZR1 course a few months after getting my ZR1. I also drove the ZR1 in normal driving for almost three years. I wasn't that impressed with the brakes at least for normal driving. I'm sure for the track they are superior to the steel disks though.

    Vipair Performance - Steve Prescott , ANOTHER ISSUE !!!

    I see he is still advertising though. [email protected] Unfortunately there is very little recourse for people like this when they do all their business on-line. People say oh, report it to the FTC like that would do any good. I've never purchased from him; but, it's good to have...

    2014 Viper ACR rendering

    I will drop a deposit on one in a second if they look anywhere close to this.

    And so it begins *** DEALER MARKUP***

    If they come back with an ACR version and I like it I will buy one; but, only from Woodhouse who I understand sell at MSRP. A lot of that is based on this forum and seeing how they take care of even small stuff, such as keeping us informed about the window regulators.

    And so it begins *** DEALER MARKUP***

    That is absolutely a dealer that doesn't understand Vipers or Viper owners. No one in their right mind puts a dealer tag on a Viper. I have never had to worry about that even with two Z06's and a ZR1.

    Dusty Viper-What do you do?

    Since I have a black car it shows dusty more than others. This time of the year I can wash it and it even gets dusty in the garage. I have used a California duster for 3 - 4 years; but, I just ordered two microfiber blankets to place on it after it is washed and put back in the garage. Car...

    2014 Viper ACR rendering

    (This has been posted before; but, wanted to see what others say) Will have to wait and see if they actually produce the ACR next year before deciding. I would probably be interested though if it does look like this. Can someone change the color to black?

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    Thanks for checking.

    And so it begins *** DEALER MARKUP***

    I have given over MSRP ($5k) for a vehicle before; but, what some dealers are asking for is insane. I was in line for 14 months to buy the ZR1. The dealer in Ohio I had purchased my last Z06 from called and said he had a ZR1 inbound and I could have it for $60,000 over list. I passed and...

    First crashed Gen V on public roads?

    Condolences to the family. We all have unanswered questions about whether traction control was on or off and whether these cable barriers are the safest barriers. http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2010/nov/07/cable-barriers-prevent-accidents-tennessee/?print=1

    First crashed Gen V on public roads?

    They were just installed here and are still installing them. We have had numerous accidents where vehicles on I540 cross over to the other side; but, I have always wondered if those were the best barriers. And apparently, they aren't. I sent a link of this to a local TV station asking them...

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    I have my Viper at the dealer right now and one of things was to fix the passenger side window. They called and said they needed to replace the regulator and they were on back order.

    And so it begins *** DEALER MARKUP***

    Dealer markups are what drove me originally to purchase a viper. I was in line to buy a first year C6 ZR1 for a year or so. I had purchased my last Z06 from the same dealer. He called me one day and say he had a ZR1 inbound, not the color I wanted; but, he would let me havve it for $60k over...
