    I have 3 children--one in law school, one in college hoping to be a pro golfer and one in high school. They all do certain things well and some things not so well. But, I love them the same. This is kind of the way I feel about the 3 cars you mention . The 458 may be the most technologically...

    2013 SRT Viper pricing? (ALLPAR)

    Having to add nannies, upgrading interiors etc I am not sure how SRT could sell it for much under 130k. Probably part of the reason Dodge is out of the equation . I don't mind the 130 as long as in 2 years it is not 90.

    Mark ups were the norm on new GTs and once the rich and famous bought theirs some did sit on stubborn dealer showrooms. America in general was not used to a 150kplus Supercar . I remember offering a local dealer 10k over msrp and being laughed at. I think Ford was fine with sales. It was a true...

    Early 93 Viper---you have told me something I never knew--the GT came with runflats!! Wait till I tell Ford. My 3 came with Goodyear F1s (and a sealant kit) which were state of the art, excellent tires. Goodyear did make an EMT version which fit a Z06 etc but they don't fit GTs. Sorry, my...

    I hesitate getting into anything that resembles being negative about a Viper--the car I love perhaps above all others, BUT a GT and Gen 4 are very close and the GT has an amazing top end (look at some of the Texas mile runs) As stated a pulley/tune is quite simple and mine makes it a different...

    A couple of comments. The GT was a celebration the the 100th anniversary of Ford. The theme was "the Pace Car of an Entire Company". Some folks at Ford tell different stories on why it ceased production but the popular one is Govt regs--not sure that is the total reason. But, with just over 4000...

    The only thing I enjoy as much as the GTs is this--the 458 is nuts. It is a true supercar. But, I like the styling of the GT probably better and for a 6 year old car the GT compares well with anything out there. I have 10,000 miles on my white, I had 3000 on my blue and only have 900 on my...

    Drive a GT-- you will be hooked. Paul. Not sure where you are getting your GT info. I follow the market and have bought several. Sure, like any car the lower the miles the better, but high mile cars do extremely well. Even salvage GTs often go in the 120s. As for parts there are a number of...

    What is the best exhaust.

    I have tried a bunch. My favorite is random tech hi flow and Corsa Sport combo which I bought from JonB Enthusiast.

    Best commercial of the Sperbowl!!!!!!

    Yep. Great ad about Detroit which was shot mainly in Florida and La., about a bailed out company now owned by the Italians. Only in America.

    Having just bought Fiat's other sports cat, a 458 Italia, the prices mentioned here seem cheap. And the Ferrari only has a V8.

    best sounding exhaust? and does anyone have straight pipes? videos?

    I have a 2011 Ferrari 458 and it has the nice Italian grunt. I have GTs with Hennessey and Heffner exhausts--they sound nasty--love both. My 2010 Viper sounds the best I have been able to do but I am not expert. It has hi flow cats and Corsa track---GREAT gurgle. V10 firing order problematic...

    Motor Trend- "Great Snakes" Article

    It is one of the greatest acheivments in automotive history to think they got the car produced within budget and on time. It could never happen today with all the regs, etc.

    Classic Vipers-- I don't understand it

    I think Russo may have it wrong in a lot of respects. Lee, I believe had 00001 and Lutz had 00002 which I bought from Bob in 09. Eaton wasv not Board Chair till 93 after these cars were produced. The Eaton car sold a few years back at BJ for a low 58k. Lutz was the heir apparent to Lee but...

    Viper Turns 20

    Kind of sad but all of us, including me lost sight of the 20th anniversary of arguably the most important American sports car of all time. Jon B discusses under the VCA forum but as one who followed the process from 89 and has had 10 Vipers since 94 it is beyond the pale that this important...
