    Best excuses for missing front plate,please!

    I went to Ace hardware and bought 4 small suction cups. Twisted them into the 4 bolt holes in my license plate and stuck in on the inside, center of the windshield about 2 inches from the bottom. Works good and haven't be stopped since.

    why no pictures of 2003 with roof up???

    I saw it in person at the Detroit Show. Forget Corvette and Camaro. Up close and personal the car could very easily have been in the FERRARI display. Any bets the folks in Maranello would price this car under $100k.

    Some pictures of the 2003 from yesterday

    I agree with Roland and Chuck. All three of us spent alot of time at the display and the car looks great in person. Roland's first picture captures the side gill and wheels very well. Couldn't tell if they were chrome or very highly polished aluminum. Mesh screening covered the radiator...

    What's your favorite Viper power thrill?

    Re: What\'s your favorite Viper power thrill? For me it was at Road America. Coming out of turn #14 and hammering up the hill on the main straight, shifting to 4th, and keeping my right foot down until reason overrules adrenaline and ya gotta brake for turn #1! Love that track!

    Anybody use the "Car Capsule" for storage? Opinions?

    Re: Anybody use the \"Car Capsule\" for storage? Opinions? Chuck, they actually call you Bubbleboy? How insensitive! You don't look like John Travolta at all! The only mouse that could get into your bubble, after you welded that zipper shut, would be Mighty Mouse. Have a safe new year and...
