    CAAP: When does it come back online to begin producing 2015s?

    In NJ i dont think you could find a dealer to order one because theres no such thing as a non refundable deposit .The customer orders the car and decides not to take the thing the dealer is left floorplanning it forever and ultimately it either goes to Manhiem or he gives it away. Ps If they...

    CAAP: When does it come back online to begin producing 2015s?

    There is no money in Dodges budget to literally do anything with the Viper while Chevy budget on the Z06 is unlimited in comparasion .Theres parts in that Vette (Frame ,brakes, oiling system )Dodge would love to use in the Viper IF THEY HAD THE MONEY .Every R&D dollar going into that Z06 is...

    CAAP: When does it come back online to begin producing 2015s?

    As per my post on the Z06 in late spring, perf numbers on the new Z06 (AUTO TRANNY VERSION ESPECIALLY ) exceed the last Zr-1 made .Within a month or 2 exact road test data will be made available but what i will say again is there is no perf criteria that the old ZR-1 can beat the new Z06 in...

    Dodge preparing supercharged, Convertible Vipers for 2016?

    PS ill never forget in 03 I was at Englishtown with the mag guys testing the Ford GT Prototype .John Coletti (head of Ford SVT) told me firsthand that V-10 in the Viper is going to be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to continue, evolve ect .The beancounters are going to be the end of it because of the...

    Dodge preparing supercharged, Convertible Vipers for 2016?

    Few points 1The V-10 in the Viper is a single platform motor single platform application. No American Auto Manu uses a single platform motor in any VECH of this type because its simply not cost effective. The overall cost to supercharge the Viper Motor would be in the stratosphere .OVERALL...

    Highly unlikely,as it would cost MILLIONS in R$D .(the model just doesnt warrant that type of expense for MANY reasons )

    Supercharged v-10!

    Thats all great Bob but in the real world whats the customer going to do sue both the Dealership-Dodge and rack up a large lawyers bill that they could still lose ( we all know one never knows how a judge-jury will interpt anything. The warranty act aside in the back of the judge -jurys mind...

    Supercharged v-10!

    Remember ANY BOLT ON SUPERCHARGER APPLICATION its Dodges disgression as to whether they want to VOID the warranty for the ENTIRE CAR (not just the motor )My buddy just went thru this with a bolt on Paxton on a 2013 Challanger. Dodge kicked the entire warranty on an issue that had nothing to do...

    Supercharged v-10!

    The motor still must be EPA recertifyed and all Chrysler Tests (driveability durability )still performed on the engine in the Viper .Also (as Dan mentioned) the cars brake system ,chasis are must likely modded to handle the added power .When the ACR version of the Gen 2 came out it was...

    Supercharged v-10!

    Exactly if theres one thing i learned from the mag guys its the ENTIRE car must work as a package (Chasis ,brakes ect )MUST be able to handle the power .Engine must PASS driveability emissions and durability tests (durability test is 3 days on the dyno at yellowline )On top of that you got the...

    Guys there is a LARGE DIFFERENCE between a PRETITE SUPERCHARGER application and a POSTTITLE application.In order to do pretitle Dodge must spend millions in R&D to insure all testing -warranty applications are followed .Post title (RACE APPLICATION ECT )is what this kit will most likley be...

    Rebate on ge 5 coming this week

    You dont understand marketing criteria as the Vette has technology and perf (i cant get it to at this time )that the Gen 5 doesnt have .It also appeals to a far greater range of clientle The Viper being priced higher the buyer will gravitate to the cheaper ,better performing ,better tech, more...

    Dealer Cash Time On The Gen 5

    It is formal money from Dodge to offset any poyential loss on the Viper Some dealers may apply the money to the purchase price to move car from floorplan while other may not .It all depends how badly the ind dealer wants to move the car .As i prev posted this is a direct result of the dealers...

    PS look at that ZR-1 a few hundred sold and then the VALUE TOTALLY TANKED .The Chevy dealers couldnt give them away .A buyer in that price range is going for a Vette (thats going to depreciate like a rock off a cliff )or a low mileage FGT or Ferrarri 430 Very very difficult to sell a 100k plus...
