    $15,000 coupon delivered today by UPS

    Perhaps Dodge will send out a clarifying email and/or letter. As you said, the coupon must apply to model years 2016, 2017 and probably 2018 also or the expiration date makes no sense. Here is what I understand the dealers saw: In addition, we are pleased to announce the following: •...

    $15,000 coupon delivered today by UPS

    Hi all Gen V original purchasers. Dodge delivered the 15k coupon by UPS. There is a cover letter, a chart showing the impact of the price reduction and the different Viper variants for 2015 and 2015.5. The 15K coupon cannot be used to buy a 2013 or 2014 model. Per the cover letter it is for...

    Supercharged v-10!

    If at some time in the future Dodge decides to use a positive displacement supercharger application like the one on the engines rumored to have been delivered to them, it will be interesting to see what they do to the suspension to deal with the additional weight of the supercharger and the...

    Used Vipers will take a hit!

    The people who buy the used Gen I and Gen II Vipers are generally not the same people who would buy a Gen V. They want something far more primitive and basic than a Gen III, IV or V and are not willing to shell out the new base price of $84,995 which does not include tax, title, license...

    Holy crap...Dodge just announced great incentives to spur sales

    kilr4d, I suggest you read this. Everyone was put on notice whether they choose to admit it or not. http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/671293-Gen-5-Trashing And for ease of reference, here is what it says. That should be sufficiently clear to all. Gen 5 Trashing Will Stop Now. Any overtly...

    Holy crap...Dodge just announced great incentives to spur sales

    Can you change the title? If so, it would seem appropriate to do so. This press release indicates the Viper is going to live on and that is great news for the Viper Nation. That is what we should be emphacizing. Dodge managment and marketing is clearly now on the right track. This is exciting...

    Holy crap...Dodge just announced great incentives to spur sales

    Re: Holy crap...Dodge just hit the panic button on the Viper. The story is great news. Dodge is not giving up on the Viper. That should be good news to the Viper Nation.

    Another incredible Bruce video

    Read his post again. He was polite and the Porsche driver was not. On track days, the rules are that he should have allowed the TA to pass. Also, in case you did not notice, Bruce had about an extra 200 pounds in his car - the passenger - and still reeled him in. The stock Porsche Turbo cannot...

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    That car, the Z28, has a base price of $73,300. In the test it is one second slower than a TA and even slower than the ACR that ran the track in a past year. The $73,300 buys a stripped Z28. Look at the options and option pricing. A single zone A/C unit is an option. The Hellcat Challenger has...

    Sorry. I did not keep the link. I get an automatic email every day with Viper stiories and it was one of them. I think it was from an article in Automotive News.

    2014 C&D VIR Lightning Lap Results...Viper TA delivers!

    Perhaps it is a silly question but is the N attack package streetable? It looks like it would have a few issues driving around town. If it is not streetable for every day use like the Viper and the upcoming other car, is it fair to put them in the same category?

    Information from Chrysler on 2015 Viper

    I agree. On a road course, it is the braking and cornering. The drag race out of the corner up the straight is fun but requires far less skill. In drag racing it is more about reaction time to the tree; maintaining traction, and staying in your lane unless you have a stick. Then shifting adds...

    Thank you for your insight into the subject of this thread. Everyone here is awestruck at your intelligence and depth of thought. Here is a video of my almost 14 year old Ford Lightning beating one of your beloved Vettes. I do not drag race my TA. It is not built for that purpose. How about...

    The underlined parts below show an internal inconsistency. All the negative posts show is that some posters are unhappy with the car not "a whole lot".
