Hi OrecaGTS-R/T, good to see another Melbourne member! :)
I have worked out all the costs and was so close to actually purchasing a Viper around a year ago even just have it sitting in LHD form until I had enough money to convert to RHD, I love them that much. I worked as a systems administrator...
New York is definitely towards the top of my places to visit so no doubt I will be there :)
I'm surprised there would be many Vipers in the city, I've always pictured them being outside of cities on highways etc. :P
It's quite expensive to be spending at least 50k on a car that you're just using for the track unless you're really good, that extra 40k for the conversion really kills the appeal to the Viper for most people over here (not me).
ViperFormance is the only legible conversion place in Australia...
Yep anywhere legally to be registered it must be RHD unless it's over 25 years old. The cost just to import it with all the paperwork etc. is around $7,500.
Then the conversion another $40,000 so a decent condition second-hand Gen II is close to 100k, which is what you can get a brand new one...
There are a couple of dozen hiding around Australia somewhere.
I've heard of a few people who have seen them on track days in their LHD form. It costs between $35,000 and $40,000 for the RHD conversion so no one really wants them here :(
Hi guys,
just wanted to introduce myself to the forum (forgive me if this isn't the correct category :) )
I've been a huge fan of the Viper for over 10 years now (I'm 21) and I'm aiming to buy one within the next 5 years after graduating university. Unfortunately the Viper is incredibly rare...
Oh just found the link on YouTube, odd it didn't show up in the searches around an hour ago. I'm submitting this to as many car sites as I can to get the word around :)
