Same with me. A lot of people and comments like above (mostly from people that don't own one) got me nervous. I am planning on taking it REAL easy. Some comments are making it sound like it corners on bananas no matter how careful you drive.
Yes...My first 450HP car.
Hi,
New Viper owner (1997 B/W GTS) , I'll post the details when the car arrives in April.
I respect the car and its power. I keep reading about how 30 - 50% of crashes happen in first month of ownership. Makes me wary and I don't want to become a statistic. I am taking a drivers course this...
Re: I can\'t take it anymore!
I'm presently watching 12 - 16 inches of snow fall on me today. Waiting for weather to get better so I can at least RECEIVE my first viper!!
You're sitting pretty my friend! Enjoy it!
Ran carfax. Clean record 1 Owner( as far as we trust carfax). What do you think final price will be on this one? Not a garage queen, has been driven which is good to see.

I'm new here...but....
Do you guys actually listen to your wives?
If that was my wife, what I would of heard in that discussion was...
"blah blah blah Viper....blah blah blah make money......blah blah blah garage..... let's have sex...."
I don't see any issues here.
I'm in the same boat. Looking for a shipper to ship a GTS from Oregon to Montreal (2450 miles).
This company was recommended to me by other members. I was impressed and pricing was reasonable.
Intercity Lines - ask for Bob Sellers
Wow! Called them and spoke with Bob Sellers. These guys are good. Quote was reasonable and they certainly know their business. Good piece of mind.
Thank you for the info.
If all goes well I should be closing a deal on a GTS after this weekend. The car is located in Oregon and I live in Montreal Canada (about 2450 miles away).
I need to get some shipping quotes from trusted VCA recommended shippers.
I tried using the search feature but couldn't find a list of...
Eights months of searching may finally be coming to an end. As per my last post, a deal I worked out for a blue and white 1997 in January fell through last week.
However, I just found a nicer one and have an agreement in priciple with the seller. Just need someone local to check out the car...
You guys are awesome!! Spoke to Chuck too. Great guy. I never expected how emotionally involved you get in purchasing this car. When I lost the 97 it was like losing the big game! I've been swearing non-stop for almost 3 days now.
Yeah.....help John find a car!!
Re: Why didn\'t this car get more bids?
I contacted the owner yesterday. He didn't believe it didn't even meet his reserve price. I ran a carfax on it. Clean. Two owner. First owner had it from 1999 until Dec 24 2006. Current owner took title on Dec 28th 2006 and has put 500 miles on it...
Had worked out a deal at beginning of January on a 97 GTS B/W stock. My first viper and my first car in 5 years. Spent 5 years without a car to save up and spent 6 months looking for "the one". Was going to take ownership in March. Seller called this Wednesday night and backed out.
I'm...
Not to use on the street. Just when I have it parked in the rented garage that is far from my home. I'll never be able to curb the vandalism. Just want to stop having it stolen out right when I am not around by an amateur.
Rats.... as a serious buyer in the market I was hoping you'd steer him closer to the 40's for obvious selfish reasons. :)
I worked out a deal 7 weeks ago for a low mile blue and white 1997 GTS. Was going to take ownership over the next few weeks. Seller just called me last night and back...
Just got in from walking the dog in -22 degrees C with the windchill in Montreal. My first viper is being delivered April......hopefully I will be thawed out by then!
