Getting Ready to Buy my first Viper
the latter, it'll be garage kept, but it'll be parked outside from 9-5. I'm going to get a quality car cover, but they aren't waterproof. flash rainstorms happen. i only drive a few miles to work, but florida rainstorms can be brutal. any 1997-1999 gen 2 rt/10 owners care to share about weather...- marauderprime

Getting Ready to Buy my first Viper
I was just messing with you man. I'm still in gen decision limbo. I am leaning towards a gen 2 rt10, but I can't get one realistically in east central Florida if they have interior sealing problems. Targa c4's and t-top third gens taught me that lesson well. if these things leak in rainstorms I...- marauderprime

Getting Ready to Buy my first Viper
Update, and more questions! Sorry, I just got back from 8 days in Tahiti, with a 4 day family visit in LA. The Dealership took the car to auction without telling me, even though I had an appointment to see it, and my father in law took off work early to come with me to check out the paint and...- marauderprime

Typically Dealerships have a minimum profit threshold, which is what determines "how much they are willing to accept," I am just not sure what that is. The thing you have to consider is that the dealership purchased that car outright, it was not a trade-in. That means that every second its...- marauderprime

Bill, thank you very much for the advice. Do you mean the Crankshaft Bolt? I am not sure how I would be able to check the Camshaft Bolt. Wouldnt that be underneath the timing cover?- marauderprime

Getting Ready to Buy my first Viper
Actually, I posted up this entire long winded post, and I am about to switch gears directly, a Dealership around here came into possession of a Black 04 SRT10, with black powdercoated rims, and they posted it at an outrageously high price, but when I saw it and talked to them a little bit, they...- marauderprime

Actually, I really love turbos, they just scare me on the Viper because you have to use turbo drain pumps, and those scare me. If one of those pumps goes bad you can grenade a turbo really fast, and that typically doesnt go well for the motor attached to it. although in this case, as far away...- marauderprime

Getting Ready to Buy my first Viper
Oh. I did not know that. It wasn't available as an option? I feel like I have seen several stripe less 98/99 gts's. Why the recommendation for Roe? Aren't those non-intercooled? Paxton has a good reputation, and I haven't seen any complaints from paxton viper owners. My concern with the roe...- marauderprime
