    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    Dix-- What you seem to be saying is that I need to rotate the door outward at the top. I don't see how this would help me. First off, the window fits into the rubber quite well. Rotating the top outward would perhaps cause the seal to leak. Secondly, the problem stems from the rearward-most...

    ACR Up for sale, seeking SRT as next car.

    Wow, this has really been a tough call for me. I love the ACR, but I'm after the new looks and upgraded performance of the SRT.

    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    Actually, I'm fairly sure that's not the case. I've never, not once, leaned on the door. I knew they were delicate before I bought the car (from reading this board, actually!) Furthermore, the lines on the actual door as compared to the body lines are perfect. No sag is indicated. Finally...

    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    I've searched the archives, but only was able to find out that the panel CAN be independently adjusted. How is it that it actually gets adjusted? Thanks in advance!

    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    I just had the most amazing experience with Bobby (above)! Could there be a nicer guy? I don't think so. He walked me out to my car and basically proved to me that my door was sagging and out of alignment! Not only that, he took the time to walk me through each adjuster on the door and...

    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    Tom-- Windows are a somewhat recent innovation in 400HP American sports cars. You should really look into them. (no pun intended) I guess it's the price you pay to have the girls be able to stare at you as you go by.

    UPDATE:Door button panel rubbing on GTS. How to adjust?

    Thank you Dixter for that fine explanation. I'll take a VERY close look at full door adjustment later today. You didn't mention the stantion panel, though. Is it adjustable or not, as far as you know?

    OFFICIAL SRT-10 POLL!!! THUMBS UP or THUMBS DOWN?

    <FONT COLOR="red">edit by Vipermad, then by toddt</FONT c> Your poll is "Thumbs up or thumbs down?" It is illogical to count someone as thumbs down who is also purchasing the $75,000 car he is supposedly thumbs down on. EDIT--sorry, changed the wording to be less insulting. Sorry, Trey, I...

    The SRT is going to give the Porsche GT2 a run for the money!

    My sentiments word for word. Most of the SRT-detractors will change their minds for the very reasons you indicate. Performance #1, #2 #3, styling #4.

    new Viper owner

    ssssssnake-- Welcome to the world of Viper! It's a much younger world than it used to be, so you'll probably notice that there are many younger viper pilots here. First thing you'll want to do is get onto a curved freeway onramp and FLOOR IT BABY! Watch how it sticks to that pavement! Just...

    Clarification please

    A Viper is classified an exotic by the insurance industry of America. Also by every car mag I've ever read.

    All you tire burners--some reassurance please...

    I did a test a few days ago. Started the car, let the engine warm up in my smoothly paved lot at work. Got car to a roll to the end of the parking space (clutch full out), then 3/4 throttled it. 20 feet of solid black stripes on the ground starting almost exactly the same point at the end of...

    anyone wanna trade a 2002 zo6 for your viper?

    Hi speed-- Looks like you already have a Viper...could you let us know why you would prefer a second over the 405HP Z06? I am really curious! Several members of the board seem to be happy with one of each.

    Mike-- Thanks for asking the questions you asked of the rep. The numbers you quoted, 11.8 and 212mph--I'd like to comment on them. First off, you mentioned you think these numbers are more representative of magazines. I'm not so sure about that one. On the 11.8 number, I don't doubt viper...
