    Financing options in today's market?

    Companies that rate your credit look at your debt in relation to amount of available credit. It's a mildly retarded way to evaluate someone's creditworthiness, and I believe it's one of the things that will soon change in the algorithm they use to come up with your credit score. I, like you...

    Photoshop Request: White ACR Rims

    This profile shot with those wheels shows just how much 'inspiration' Chevy stole from Viper when they 'updated' the looks of the Vette. Having said that, I think the white rims with white stripes on that car look awesome. Very unique, and tasetful.

    Question about '06 - '09 Coupes

    What are the major differences between the '06 - '09 Coupes by year? Is there a comparison chart somewhere on the 'net? Not looking for nitty-gritty differences (though I wouldn't mind knowing), just the main considerations (HP, TQ, braking, etc.) Thanks!

    What year Viper should I buy?

    Yep, what he said. If you plan to ever work the engine, the 1999 is an ideal model year because of the internals, in addition to the other features mentioned. You should also consider ext/int color combos, as that is determined by the year, as well. I always wanted Black/Cognac, which was...

    Chrysler & GM granted $17.4B in loans

    Before swearing off American cars, remember that Ford never asked for, and did not receive, a single penny of taxpayer money :usa:

    Palmer Dodge, Roswell GA**Georgia Member help please**

    Hmmm... Installing a part upside down is pretty freaking far from perfect. "Less than perfect" would be, say, forgetting to tighten a bolt snugly as opposed to installing the part completely incorrectly. You seem to be trying hard to make amends on behalf of your dealership, which is...

    Chrysler & GM granted $17.4B in loans

    Ford has a right to gripe about this bailout, really. They were chided along with GM and Chrysler, even though they never actually asked for money, only that $9BN be held in reserve as a line-of-credit in case one or both of the others folded. What the l-o-c would be used for in that event, I...

    Did you buy brand new for your first Viper?

    Bought my '99 RT/10 used with 9k miles in excellent condition. Used some of the money I would have blown on a new car for upgrades from DLM. No regrets, at all. Gen I is a bit rough for my tastes, and I just can't get into the Gen III body style. Gen II, for me, is the best option because...

    Next Gen Viper?

    Has there been any advance preview, even just an artist's drawing, of the next revolutionary body design change for the Viper? I'm talking about a design shift as dramatic as Gen I/II to Gen III, where it looks like a different car. With all Chrysler's current problems, I imagine designing a...

    Water on floorboard of passenger side

    Thanks, will do. Is there a cap on the driver's side, as well, so I have something to compare it to, or will there be an obvious gaping hole?

    Water on floorboard of passenger side

    Hello, When I drive my '99 RT/10 in the rain (an offense to God, I know) the floorboard on the passenger side will get damp. I don't know if the gasket around the door is deteriorating to the point of allowing water in, or if there is some opening underneath that is causing it. Anyone have...

    viper and girlfriend pics!

    I think before he agrees to an exchange you should at least post pics of YOUR girlfriend. It's only fair.

    Headliner replacement in a Gen II

    Hello, The headliner on the hard top of my 99 RT/10 has begun to sag badly. I live in Miami and the constant warm, humid air seems to eventually do this to every headliner in every car I've ever owned. Does anyone know an interior shop in south Florida, or even central Florida, who does...

    NEED HELP!!!

    My battery went flat so I had to jumpstart the car. No problem there, but now the care *idles* at 2,000 RPM. I'm assuming the engine computer blanked when the battery died, so is this some 'relearning' process? Is it safe to leave the car idling in the garage while the battery recharges? Now...

    Bait and Switch at Parts Rack

    I too have the Borla system installed on my '99 RT. It gives the Viper the *exact* sound people used to say was impossible to get from it - that deep, lumpy, rumbling sound. If I'm sitting somewhere idling, be it in traffic, a parking garage, gas station, restaurant parking lot, anywhere, I...

    Bird Poop

    Tried something that worked to remove my particular bird poop stain. I do not know if this will work on all bird poop stains. I do not know if this will damage your paint. I am not recommending this procedure, just letting those who are interested know that it worked for me. I read on a car...

    Noise and smoke when starting

    Had a very odd thing happen yesterday. When I started the car in the morning, I released the key a bit early and a horrid buzzing/grinding sound came from under the hood, shortly followed by a decent amount of smoke. I opened the hood to make sure nothing was on fire and looked to see if...

    Best Car Alarm?

    The previous owner of my car installed a Viper (the aftermarket alarm company, not from Dodge) alarm system. It sucks. BAD. As a result, neither of my exterior door buttons work to open the door, nor does the internal door handle on the passenger side. I don't know if this is due to a...

    Do not buy this GTS.

    Don't they have a comment field underneath the auction where buyer/seller can post comments?

    Bird Poop

    I took a 4-day diving class in Ft. Lauderdale and my car was left outside while I was out on the boat. A bird took a crap on the hood which then baked under the hot Florida sun for two days. When I finally got home, I washed the car. The particulate matter of the bird poo washed away easily...

    Are ACR wheels mfg'd by BBS?

    Some guy in the Classifieds is selling 7 of them. Don't know if he has sold them all, but would be worth a PM.

    Are ACR wheels mfg'd by BBS?

    Title says it all. Are ACR wheels mfg'd by BBS, or were they made by Dodge? Thanks!
