That was my car Ba$$fan. I am still happy with the sale, but my suggestion to you if you are looking for a silver GTS is to get a 1999 rather than a 1998 so that you get the newer interior door handles (the old-style bezels are cheesy and a PITA if you have to remove the door and replace them)...
Dayum! 3,275!!! That's World Record Big Bro! You guys are all abnormal. Vipers were made for "reasonably sized" guys like me: 5'8'+ @ 155 pounds. :)
Oh wait a minute, Six foot three inches @ 275 - I get it now.
$3,866 for a new hard top, and $2,417 for emergency vehicle lighting.

$3,866 for a hard top!?! Jon B did they buy that from you?
But worse yet, they are estimating maintenance cost for the...
I was using google news search to look for this crash and hit a follow-up to the police officer-invloced crash in New Jersey in August of 2008:

Of course they might have called in sick after partying too hard for the Packers.
If I was undoubtedly the greatest on Earth in two different sports (snowboarding and ramp skateboarding - but insert whatever sport you want) I would be pretty dang confident myself.
ANOTHER father wrecks a Viper!?! Remember this one:

BTW, why would it already have a salvage title if it was never repaired? Totaled and bought back?
If you mean the rear piston as it is pushed out by the emergency/parking brake the answer is no special tool needed. There are two holes in the piston: simply open a set of needle nose so the tips fit into those holes and screw it back in. Very simple.
Porterfield R4S is VERY clean, but I took them back off because they are not very interested in stopping the car. I'd like to hear honest opinions about stopping power of the other low-dust suggestions compared to stock Brembo pads.
Just got back from first time at Russo & Steele. The first row we checked out in the first tent was absolute junk. Body and paint issues - an early 70s Vette on 22s - I was worried it was going to be a wasted afternoon, but the more we looked at the better it got. i have never seen so many...
I live about 3-4 miles fron Barret-Jackson, but my Father and I have been there so mamy times we are going to have lunch then go to Russo and Steele today. The R&S tents look MUCH bigger this year than the ones that blew over last year (thankfully we have GREAT weather this week). If you go to...
That Azure is the most ridiculous car sold right now. Six thousand pound two-door. Makes a Mercedes CL look reasonable. Post pics when the car gets there.
Riding a couple of Bentleys to San Antonio: its gone now. My girlfriend blubbered like someone died when the transporter came. "It's just such a beautiful car" she wailed! Inconsolable. I was fine until she started, then I got a little teary eyed.
The only sting I am going to feel from this deal is missing out on the 100 extra horsepower RSM is going to get when he does heads and a cam on the car to make it his own! :drive:
Yes, which I think was a fair deal in both directions. When you add in the $1k I netted by selling my extra set of wheels and tires I got market, not fire-sale market.
Well, after 6.5 years of ownership, 6 months for sale, one buyer who backed out, then working with another very nice but persnickity buyer for 10 weeks (including an Eddie Martin inspection) my car is finally sold. Did the paper work today with transport scheduled for Monday. Welcome...
If the stock gearing on a Viper was appropriate stock would be fine, but 3.55/3.73 rear gears and a .80 5th and .64 6th are just plain necessities to get the car to where it should have been from the factory. Honestly this ruins the stock Viper for me.
I disagree. It's the headers. I know it is a Gen II with rear exhaust, but here is a 0-60 run in my car with Balenger headers, stock cats modified to have 3" inlet and outlets, and two straight through mufflers on each side. Sounds pretty Lambo-ish to me...
Good news is I sold my second set of wheels and tires and squeezed some cash out of my car there, but the market is dead and I screwed around not being aggressive and now I am up against the holidays. After not working for 5 months my savings is starting to scare me a bit and I need to get this...
This car has to go and when you see 11k mile B&W's going for $30k you realize the sad truth: these cars just aren't worth what we wish they were. But hey, I only paid $40k for it 6.5 years ago. Add in another $10k-$15k of mods and that is not horrible depreciation/cost for 6+ years of fun.
