    Orange? Help me Understand this!!!

    On the original subject Mike-in-Denver raised -- are there people on the internet who don't know how to use a pull-down menu? I think most do, including the fact that there may be a default selection. Anyway, based on the comments, I see only 1 inadvertent vote for Mopar orange. True there...

    Will the price of GTS go down when 03 it out?

    Obviously no one really knows, and what actually happens will be driven by demand for the Gen II cars once Gen III arrives. What is working in your favor is that you are looking at some form of GTS. Here are some observations: (1) The GTS will not be produced again until 2005 at the very...

    Will the SRT-10 be at the LA Auto Show?

    Steve F, You are correct, the show opens to the public tomorrow (Saturday the 5th). I will be there! www.laautoshow.com/hours/ 2charmed, Since I can see the SRT here, I think I'll pass on Scottsdale, but that's good to know for future reference!

    Will the SRT-10 be at the LA Auto Show?

    Does anyone know for sure one way or the other whether the SRT-10 will be at the upcoming LA Auto Show? I am very eager to see this car before buying one....

    Exhaust Question

    I was really pleased with the combination of Borla long-tube headers, 3" catbacks, and hi-flow cats. Based on comparisons with my buddy SoCal Rebell who has the Belanger headers, exhaust, and hi-flow cat setup, I would say the two are very similar in terms of loudness and sound quality. The...

    Exhaust Volume

    Ulysses, Actually, what I was saying was that unless the hi-flow cats make the car louder, I'm not interested. I'm not worried about going deaf, though maybe I should be. Ben, Interesting additional data, but I wonder how much of a difference the headers make. At this point, I'm not...

    Exhaust Volume

    Interesting. I guess I won't be wasting the $$ for hi-flow cats to go with my Corsas for my '01, unless you happen to have data at WOT that shows there's a difference.

    New Corsa 3" exhaust

    Re: New Corsa 3\" exhaust I will say that the Corsa 3" tips look the best of any that I have seen. But omigosh -- that UPS truck sound when you first fire it up.... Anyway, I guess I have learned that you can't have an exhaust that is on the one hand mean and nasty sounding, and on the other...

    New Viper Commercial

    Bob, Good to hear from you! The creampuff is running great! I was afraid it felt a little slow, but I think the difference is the 3.07 stock gear vs. the 3.55 that I am used to. Got a decent dyno run: 426 rwhp / 459 rwtq with the mods listed in the signature. It's twinkie-like in color...

    Ugh, I didn't realize something had happened either! Sorry to hear about that, Nadine. Hope you can get everything sorted out to your liking. And thanks for posting the pix!

    New Viper Commercial

    I just saw a commercial on TV that featured some red Vipers spinning around in 360's and flying through the air. Anyone else see this commercial? I only caught a glimpse of it and the audio was off since I was at a family event. Anyway, looked pretty cool. I'll have to try that spinning...

    Certificates no longer available

    Sounds like YellowSnake just made it in under the wire. You did get a cert # didn't you??? ------------- Like Mike, I am also happy, but for a slightly different reason. It doesn't really matter to me how the production gets allocated, other than the effect on my ability to get a...

    Viper vs. Lotus

    Prior to my Viper ownership days, I owned an '87 Esprit. As noted above, the Renault gearbox sucked. The 1-2 upshift would always grind at higher revs. Very annoying if you're trying to drag race. And the newer Esprits still have the same crappy tranny. Also, your buddy is smoking dope if...

    Corsa Exhaust

    Vipera, Which headers do you have? Have you tried Borla headers, catbacks and hi-flow cats? If so, you still think Corsas sound louder/meaner? I find that hard to believe....

    Corsa Exhaust

    It's not just you. The stock exhaust is very restrained (to be PC about it). IMO, the Corsa 3" catbacks have too much of that "UPS truck" sound quality at idle, at least inside the car, and they don't sound very aggressive when you get on it. Of course, this is inside the car. Who knows what...

    How will SRT-10's be distributed to dealers?

    Re: How will SRT-10\'s be distributed to dealers? The reason it would be good to know this before actually placing an order is that I would like to know how much leverage I have. If a dealer is going to get a set allocation of cars regardless of how many customers with certs that dealer gets...

    Hmmmm, I thought we at Boeing built the Space Shuttle, not Dodge.... But then I'm in the unmanned space side of the business, so what do I know? Sorry, I'm just joshing with you. The truth is I feel your pain, since it took Dodge until last Thursday to come up with my cert #. Up until that...
