They might as well have painted the accents on the steering wheel yellow too instead of the black they changed it to. Black was a change it looks like too. Might as well have painted the caliper yellow. That is the only color caliper that is missing from them.
Publicity is good. Too bad Kimbel is a cross-eyed idiot or he might have got it. Maybe the curiosity will get the better of Halle and she will want to know more, the vertical picture above is great as well as the Halle on the beach shot. Both clearly show her inspiration. If she really knew, I...
Cool event a little while ago here in Longmont, Colorado where a new Lexus LFA (with Scott Pruett behind the wheel) was pitted against a new Eclipse 500 business jet at the Longmont Airport

You will have to watch the HD video to see who won...
If not a repeatable base coat, clear coat like other BASF Extreme colors out there, then a complete waste. Saleen use to charge $11.5k to $15k for custom colors like this so expect the same here. If so it will be a limited offering.
Not sure why SRT is using this difficult paint process of translucent top coats, etc. It makes it impossible to replicate if you need to repaint any part of the car for any reason. Using a Flex paint where the metal flakes are coated with a certain finish coating ensures a perfect match in an...
Bob;
Glad you met up with the SRT Team last weekend. Great group of guys and boy can they chug aged Root Beer at TommyKnockers! Ha! Ha! Now if I could just get that fully loaded GTS (in my price range) with $50K discount, then I could stop beating myself up becuase I don't have that current...
True dealers can charge what they want as this is a free country (I don't agree with dealer rape stickers), but if they do, that should be dialed into the dealership evaluate from SRT. They want to sell for above MSRP, that is their choice BUT that should absolutely limit their future ability to...
SRT seems to be right on for base price. GTS base is $12,000 too expensive and the option prices are just a too excessive for what you get. $5.5K for stripes that would cost a body shop $1,000. I paid $3,000 for them on my GEN III from the factory and thought that was outrageous. Yes the new...
Paul I think you missed the point on Canadian buyers. Who the hell would pay an extra $30K cnd to buy from the local Canada dealer in Canada when the exact same car was had in the USA for the $30K usd less even after exchange. That problem is now remedied in the new GEN V Canada pricing. That is...
I believe in Free Enterprise BC, but on a new vehicle where you get locked into local and specific dealership support for warranty (within I believe it was 200 miles) when you buy a new vehicle, it should be locked down across the board for the "max price" they can charge like most any product...

The bigger question is going to be if Ralph really sticks to his guns or not and is willing to walk away from some of these shaddy dealers who have the money to just hand over a check no questions asked, but don't really have the passion and commitment long term beyond the sale? We have...
Love those rims! Now if they just weren't black. Man I hope that fad ends tomorrow! A color similar to the old BBS rims would be so much better. Sadly not even an option.
PM sent, just get back to me!
BTW, the Auctions are not good to Vipers aside from the one time B-J a few years ago and the lady from Grand Juction, Colorado. Certain brands like the Viper and Saleens, etc. are just never going to see good numbers at auction unless a paradyme change takes place...
I am talking that. Not sure how you did it Mike as my uncle was turned back on his 2013 GT-500 and it was a big mess. I can e-mail you the new import law that specifically states this all. It is effective August 1st, 2012.
Well for what it's worth, the Ford warranty across the board can state whatever it wants, however you can not longer import ANY year Shelby modified Shelby's, nor Ford Shelbys newer than 2008, nor Saleens or Roushs newer than 1996 into Canada. New import rules just went into effect August 1st...
Unfortunately not! If you read the actually warranty statements on the Viper, it specially states warranty for US in US and warranty for Canada in Canada. There are actually two different warranty statements, one for each country. If it were true, we would have all you Fort Mac Boys flying down...
Thanks trying to hold on to some fun toys in light of all the medical crap I endured his year out of nowhere. The SRT Cuda is pretty real for consideration. More than just magazine future material. It is in the background of Ralph's 60 Minutes Interview and I would be suprised if it did not make...
Mike Adams;
I am not looking at another Ford or Shelby GT-500 either, just wanted to say that there is a big difference between a $65K-$70K GT-500 new and the $100K+ Options SRT Viper new. Again not apples to apples cars but some that have some money but not big bucks in the bank will make that...
Comparisons are now dialed squarely into my next move against the used market. Sorry but unless some major investments start to fly off the wall, there will not be a new Viper in my future. Then again I enjoyed mine for 6 years when bought my GEN III Coupe new, so might be time to move on to...
Sorry boys, but I am out of the running for a new GEN V. Love the new GTS but it is clear, it is not the car for me as I just can't pay that much. Base SRT seems in line which is great but GTS seems just out of line. I mean if a full load GTS is probably around $145K (as I would want and option...
