    Neighbor of mine

    Wow, haven't visited this site in months. If I were the guy I'd skip the lawyer and just shoot someone. It doesn't matter what the current market price is for the GT, the fact is dealers get the car for dealer cost from Ford Motor Company and that price does not change for the given model...

    Im sooo Famous that.....

    On Friday I drove by the building near my work where they are developing the Ford GT (GT-40), and they had a black Ford GT sitting outside alongside a new yellow Lamborghini Gallardo. Must be benchmarking it against the Lambo somewhat.

    Black dots on rear blue facia and white stripes

    I had the same problem with my '96 GTS. I still do a little bit. It is most likely little specs of carbon from the exhaust. I put on a Roe VEC-1 and adjusted the load for a better air/fuel ratio and the little black specs are almost not a problem anymore.

    Superman Viper by Matchbox

    Don't know if you all have seen this at the stores yet but I picked up a Superman matchbox Viper GTS at my local Toys-R-Us store for $3.99. It says Justice League on the package. A little hard to tell it's a Viper at first with all the Superman stuff on the car.

    WHY I SOLD AT 9200 MILES

    Hmmmm....I guess you didn't sense my sarcasm here. But the Blackwood is the modern day Edsel and that's why I drive it. It's more rare than a Viper. :headbang: But seriously at first I thought WANTED was just another garage gueen/Windbreaker/Zaino Freak, but then it looks like he put more...

    WHY I SOLD AT 9200 MILES

    I know exactly what you mean WANTED. But I don't like to put a lot of effort into cleaning and polishing the Viper, so I just sell it every time one gets dirty. Heck, even if I only put 20 miles on it I can't stand the feeling of driving something used so I put it up for sale.

    Complaints about Viper Magazine?Send them here:

    Here's my complaint: They need more pictures of nude or scantily clad women in the Viper Magazine preferably posing with Vipers. Wait, they don't have any such pictures in there now. Ahhhhhh......never mind. Either that or they need a special section like Penthouse Forums where Viper owners...

    I love Detroit!

    Vic, I see the GT posters on E-Bay and elsewhere on the net for $8 or so now. The Ford GT's I sat in were complete production vehicles. Full interior and painted exterior. Very nice and not hammered on at all. I tried to drive off in one, but no luck. I posted a picture of me sitting in one...

    Speedo re-cal

    If you need a speedo recalibration box, PM me as I have one I bought and will never use since I went back to the stock gear. Not because I didn't like the aftermarket 3.55's or whatever I had, but my spider gear went kaput and I went back to stock gears. Hence the desire to sell my new, never...

    I love Detroit!

    It's been so long since I've been on this forum I could hardly remember my password. SylvanSRT, where were you driving when you saw all those cars? I've pretty much seen everyone of those cars on the streets of Detroit at one time or another, except the Porsche GT3, but not all within 1 hours...

    Not to be cheap But why join VCA I get help from forum anyway?

    Two words: Key Chain. I've got so many free key chains from the VCA every year I'm gonna need a few more Vipers to use them on. You guys got some you ain't using?

    Brake Dust On Rims Suck! Any Suggestions?

    I went to EBC greens and it solved most of the brake dust problem, but that was not good enough for me. So I went one step further and removed all 4 brake pads and replaced them with wads of Bounty paper towels (the quicker picker upper). It takes a little longer to stop, but me rims sure stay...

    How did you afford to buy a Viper?

    B.S. in Industrial Engineering M.S. in Management-Production and Operations Management Without college I could not have afforded the Viper. I had no money to start a business right out of high school and I had no clue what the heck I wanted to do anyways. My college degrees have paid off for...

    Re: Lost Power?? Viper Why??? You Guy\'s Didn\'t Help [******]! Thanx Who is this clown. Only a few posts on this board and he looks like one impatient, ungrateful son of a @#$& already. Help yourself over to the dealer and let them figure it out if you can't. Gheez. Maybe it's the...

    Well, Ryan and I knew we would probably being driving through rain the whole way up to the dyno event and brunch, and we were right. It was great meeting up with all you Ontario Viper club members. You're a great bunch of people. Ryan, I, and the 2 gals all made it back to Windsor and...

    Has anybody painted there Calipers ??

    I painted mine red using some VHT brand high temp caliper paint made specifically for calipers. They look very good and have held up for 2 years plus look as fresh as the day they were painted. I think the key is in the prep work. Lucky for me I was installing 4 new calipers and didn't have...

    No one is saying anyone is "less" of a person because their parents bought them a car. I certainly never said that. Maybe you read into it too much. And if some young person wants to buy a Viper then more power to them. I never said they didn't have a right to. By all means if you have the...

    Makara, I'm chilled out like a fine bottle of Dom Perignon in a bucket of ice. :D I have no beef with you or how you got your Viper nor was anything I said aimed at anyone in this thread in particular. If you got your Viper all on your own, then props go out to you. Good for you. I...

    Same goes for me. Props to the young guys who got their Vipers and everything else entirely by themselves. But if you mom and dad bought it for you, or if mom and dad paid for all your college and you just saved up the money to buy a car instead of paying for your own college, or if you're...

    All you relatively young guys with Vipers need to get over yourselves. Your hands are going to get sore from patting yourselves on the back so much. All you really young guys seem just hell bent to be the youngest person ever to own a Viper. Who gives a sh.. :rolleyes: Every couple of...

    COOL VIDEO!!!

    Cool for the most part. What isn't cool though is the lambo in the beginning of the clip who passes into oncoming traffic and narrowly misses the oncoming car who had to pull of onto the shoulder. That plus the Mustang? that passes someone at high speed on the shoulder. It's A holes like that...

    Why is it I'm never around to commence the beating?

    Re: Why is it I\'m never around to commence the beating? I don't visit here much anynore, but I don't remember you or Hisserman so you must be new. Welcome my Motor City Brothers!! Speaking of Windsor, I drove my GTS over there 2 years ago to meet up with GenXGTS for the first time. We...
