    This car looks like a steal to me...

    Didn't ACR Vipers come standard with the harness style seatbelts? I do not see them on the car in the pics. Better check the VIN number for verification that it is an ACR from the factory before pulling the trigger.

    Should the next Vert be a convertible hardtop?

    I think that this decision probably has been made already by SRT for the close to production 2013 Viper but here's my humble opinion. I have heard or read somwhere that it is an engineering nightmare to get all those parts to work together well enough for a production vehicle. I would rather...

    Remember the first time you drove a Viper?

    The Viper was my dream car since I knew what one was. I had to test one first before spending the dough so I rented one in Vegas for a day. That was a priceless ride through Red Rock Canyon and up and down the strip. That was 8-9yrs ago so it was a yellow 95 I was driving. I actually...

    Remember the first time you drove a Viper?

    I also rented a yellow 95 in Las Vegas from Dream Car Rentals maybe 8 yrs ago. It was summer and 114 degrees there. The top was off and the leather seats were HOT. That is when I learned how hot the side sills can get really quickly. Me and girlfrient (now wife) drove it through Red Rock...

    Maryland viper owners help needed

    Verbal agreements are useless. Years ago, I turned in a leased car to buy a used 95 Mustang GT vert. My leased car needed brakes and as a condition of buying a car, the salesman and I shook hands on my turn in passing inspection. A month later I get a bill for a $500 brake job. The sales...

    Another Viper Wreck, Coventry RI

    Regardless of how the owner lived, may he RIP. Condolences to his family. The yellowcide comment was very tasteless in this situation but still funny.

    Newsweek article has blurb on new Viper

    There are many cars that were produced just a few years ago like the Ford GT or Saleen S7 that would not pass crash tests or emissions standards today or in the next couple years. Somehow, tiny cars like the Smart are allowed to share the roads alongside the overweight minivans even though an...

    2012 ZR1 sets new ring record

    This late in the game, IMHO, it would be a waste of resources to run a '10 ACR in 2011 when the Gen V is coming out soon enough even if it takes up to 2 years. The Gen IV legacy is as good as it can get without a factory backed racing program. Records were made to be broken. Congrats to the...

    Help help help...crisis

    +1.... I would definitly try to live with the oil drip while checking the level before and after every drive before spending the money on a new block. $9k could go to the purchase of a second whole Gen I Viper and then you could have 2 or sell the first one. I hope for your sake that it...

    Gen 2 doors on a Gen 1.. Yes you can!

    Attaching the weather strip to the removable top instead of the windshield gets my vote. I once had a 1995 Mustang GT convertible. The weatherstrip was attached to the windshield surround from the factory. The weatherstrip flapped around when the top was down untill it eventually...

    Gen 2 doors on a Gen 1.. Yes you can!

    I would be shocked if this hasn't at least been tried by someone before. The window gap looks smaller in pics and I am sure even with the gap it would have a better fit than the original drop ins.:lmao: I look foward to seeing your progress.:eater:

    How bad was my trade in?

    As costanzo said, what did you trade it in for? Parts value for Vipers set a bottom IMHO and $22k, I would guess, is below parts value. Personally, I would not let any Viper I already owned go for that little. Any Viper, no matter what the mileage or year, can still give me a priceless...

    Congrats on your new Viper. Where are you located?

    Just bought a 00 Vette

    I have heard the piston walls of the LS7 are too thin for serious mods. A local here blew his up but that may have been for a different reason.

    Cleared to drive again...

    If anybody deserves the rumble of a V10 it is our military veterans. Best of luck with your recovery. Glad to hear you are back in the drivers seat. Thankyou.:usa:

    Just bought a 00 Vette

    The C6 orange is very cool in person. It is a little too much adding it to the rear glass though. I hope he has not let the original hood go because that silver is nasty. Supercharge a Zo6 at your own risk of engine failure.

    Pro Shots of my Matte Black GTS

    17yrs ago, I painted a 95 Firebird in diamond black laquer. The matte black looked mean with the gold GTA rims but I did plan on eventually buffing it to a shine. Shortly after I painted it, a truck wheel fell out of the truck bed and rolled off the highway onto the access ramp and hit me in the...

    Just bought a 00 Vette

    Our 99 C5 has been a great dd and is a lot of value for the money. As far as losing your Viper, there is nothing that can replace it. There is still plenty of time to get back in a Gen II. I am amazed that asking prices have stayed so low and look to be for the next year or 2 at least...

    Ralph Gilles Looking For Feed back !!

    Marketing also involves advertizing. If there was ever any reason that stands out other than a bad economy that the Viper hasn't been selling is that it has not been shown in any Dodge commercial since the Gen II was sold if I recall correctly. No car company should consider making changes to a...

    LMAO. You make a great point with "style points" becoming more important to many car enthusiests than function and performance. Gotta love those that want to be stylishly late to the finish line. :lmao::eater:
