    The Gen V doesn't suck!!!

    People still by Lambos and Ferraris, when most of them don't have any dealership network in the same state, much less city. It seems you give up too easily, or just aren't that interested in a Gen 5. Either way, it is your decision. Personally, I wouldn't let a town dealership dictate my...

    The Gen V doesn't suck!!!

    Has your dealer actually said they won't service them? This does not sound correct, as any Chrysler dealership can perform warranty work. The 5 isn't much different than the 4, beneath the fancy skin. As for the complainers and trolls on the VCA, they have all but ruined the Gen 5 forum for...

    Another thing the Gen 5 and the C7 have in common.

    Agreed. I've owned two C6's myself. Base Z51 when they first came out, and later a Z06. I modified both to run in the 10s. The base C7 is only popular now, because it is the newest thing. Just like when I had the first C6 around. It got a lot of attention, good magazine reviews, etc...

    The Gen V doesn't suck!!!

    To each their own. I still own my Gen 3. I didn't buy a Gen 4 because it is the identical car I already had, with some more horsepower under the hood. Many felt the Gen 4 should have just been considered a mid-model refresh and remained a Gen 3. I bought the Gen 5 because it was a completely...

    The Gen V doesn't suck!!!

    I'm a realist. I really bought a real car. Really.

    Amazing discovery. Maybe they really are similar? C7 & Gen 5 both have... :rolaugh:

    Gen V ACR Needed For Ring Time

    It would be a lot easier to push the case vs the bean counters, if sales were better. They could just make the GT3-R into a street legal version, but it would likely cost more than the current GT3-R does. Then people would just complain about price again. BTW, regarding shocks, the Gen 3/4...

    RIDICULOUS.....

    ACR-X ran the 'Ring in 7:03, over 2 yrs ago. Without nannies, with a manual trans. From a car that COULD be purchased from Dodge. This Nismo GT-R is just a Nissan test car, not a production vehicle.

    Do you find yourselves always "dreaming" of other Vipers?

    I wouldn't mind having an ACR in either Graphite or White, with a single red driver's stripe. No black centerband. A blue/white '96 GTS also.

    How many track pack cars?

    Track Pack is just an option, those red cars weren't a special edition. I'm betting the non-red SRT cars built is very few, especially those with Track Pack.

    Two new TA articles

    Yes, but those parts add up to $22K over the base price of the bare bones 2013 SRT, at $98K MSRP. People are already complaining about the price, this would have been worse. Personally, I think having two different (now three) models is silly. They should all start out as Vipers, and allow...

    Thinking of a new TA... opinions please!

    If you want an orange car, you only have one option - unless you custom paint another car. Had I known about the orange TA, I'd have ordered that one instead of my white SRT. I'm a sucker for orange cars, have owned many. I'd have paid $10K more than I did for mine to get one, also - but...

    Two new TA articles

    You do realize that there isn't much difference between a TA and the SRT, right? Aero mods, adjustable shocks, and larger front calipers. All can be upgraded on any Gen 5. I have no complaints with my track pack brakes, but I would like the aero mods.

    Gen V ACR Needed For Ring Time

    The track edition ACR went 7:03, over 2 yrs ago. No nannies, with a man trans. Just sayin' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUK2ZmDz7eo

    Let's be real, what would it take? Only short answers please

    I agree with that statement. I felt exactly the same in 2008, when they unveiled the Gen 4. Many of us already had modded Gen 3 coupes that were faster than a stock Gen 4, and had no reason to upgrade. Especially when the chassis, body, and interior were identical. Couple that with the fact...

    ACR Cup Tires, Do you Suggest Them?

    They are pretty awful on the street. Pilot Super Sport is a better all-around tire. Sport Cups are only good on the road course, after a lap to heat them up.

    No Viper in Road and Track Performance Car of Year???

    Hmmm, considering that I actually pay to be a member and use this forum, and you do not, maybe it is you that should take a hike? Read up on my posts about Gen 5 cars, and you'll see that I have been one of the most vocal and critical about the lack of marketing, lack of parts availability...

    Side by Side Photos - Gen 5 & C7

    Wade, I didn't mention any lap times. You did. I said we should run them and compare times. TWS is my favorite track in TX, I'll go run there when I get a chance. And for the record, I don't have anything against Shooter or ACR's. Each of us likes our cars. I'd still consider buying an...

    No Viper in Road and Track Performance Car of Year???

    See response #7 above. You made my point, perfectly. How about sticking to complaining about things that SRT is directly responsible for, instead of complaining about articles that they didn't even participate in? We could all sit here and make up complaints and pass blame. But, what does...

    Side by Side Photos - Gen 5 & C7

    Some talk about going to the track, I do it. Have you had a chance to track your ACR yet? I'd be happy to compare lap times at MSR or dragstrip times at RPR with you. Grab a lane. Let's see if you can drive that Viper.

    First 2014 Billet Silver Viper

    I'm not a big silver fan, but THAT combo looks tasty. This silver has a lot of depth to it, nice shadows. It also seems they have addressed the hood gap fitment.

    No Viper in Road and Track Performance Car of Year???

    Please explain to us how this post of yours "helps market the Viper". If you are concerned about marketing the new Viper, have you done your part and purchased one? Notice that the owners of this car aren't complaining about it. Most of us are tired of the complaining about it, in fact. The...

    No Viper in Road and Track Performance Car of Year???

    Had this rag included a Viper, and it won, would you have run out and bought one? Doubt it. So, who cares about another lame magazine article?

    First 2014 Billet Silver Viper

    Needs SidewinderII and SRT instead of GTS. Nice combo!
