    ACR in Motor Trend

    You might want to read the article. I read somewhere else that the new Z06 may approach 600 hp and the new ZR1 may be over 700 hp. Talking about healthy competition. I have a gen 4 ACR. I am sure the new ACR will be a great car, but I would like to see more hp especially in light of what the new...

    ACR in Motor Trend

    Just got the latest MT in the mail and there is a sharp red ACR in there. It mentions that development is confimed and the delays seems to be the tires. On the downside, the article mentions that the Viper hp will be held back by Ferrari. That does not make sense. I do not see a Ferrari buyer...

    Pilot sport tires

    When I back out of the garage, I turn hard left backing up and hard right going forward. The pilot sports on my ACR seem to grab and skip during these manuvers. Does this seem normal?

    Oil leak, 96 GTS, porous block, pan, gasket, how do I know which one?

    I don't think you will be able to see the porousness of the oil pan, I could not. I was thinking about going to a new 10 qt oil pan also, seems it was about $500. There was something going on also with the owners manual and an addendum that showed a corrected amount of oil capacity, cannot...

    Oil leak, 96 GTS, porous block, pan, gasket, how do I know which one?

    My 96 leaked. I heard they had porous oil pans. The oil pan gasket had been replaced, but did not fix it. I tried everything without taking it too far apart, but never could find it. Good luck.

    Refreshed 2015 Viper?

    I was given a Chrysler 300 rental car on a recent trip. I was shocked how fast it was. I was thinking while I had it that surely a rental car would not have a Hemi in it. When I got back to the hotel that night, I popped the hood and it was the new 3.6 pentastar v6. Made me wonder why you would...

    Knoxville TN Vipers

    I may be making a move to the Knoxville TN area in the near future. Any Vipers in the area? I hear West Knoxville and Farragut are decent places to live. Any insight/advice appreciated.

    Car Cover for 2010 ACR Snake Skin Green Limited Edition

    Mine is grey with a black viper emblem on the front. Looks like it would be the same as any acr.

    2014 Corvette

    I would not mind having one of these for my wife. I would rather buy a 2 seat Dodge like the Firepower or whatever it was called with a 500 HP for the same price point as the base Vette, not sure if we will see that though.

    Car&Driver:ZR1 beats the Viper...again

    I recall John Fernandez, former head of SRT saying that they needed to have 20-25% more horsepower or nobody would pay attention.

    Car&Driver:ZR1 beats the Viper...again

    Does anyone know who the driver was at C&D, unless I missed it somewhere? Not one to make excuses, but it would have been interesting to see the run w/ MPSC and the ACR suspension. If I remember correctly, the track pack has the stoptech brakes and hats, corsa tires, lighter wheels, but no ACR...

    What would you like to see in the ACR?

    Start off w/ the base SRT and add the ACR Pkg. I think the ACR pkg on a GTS would be an oxymoron. Put MPSC or the next upgraded Michelin at the time on it. Give it 750 HP. Make the interior functional, not fancy. Give it the wide body. Put real gauges in it. Lighten it by 100 lbs. Make this...

    Looks like it is time to bring out the big gun. How long till the new ACR will be back in town?

    Doomed

    I am a little curious as to why all previous generation Vipers are referred to as a POS by the media and some current Viper owners since the Gen 5 is on the horizon. I have not had the privilege of seeing the new Viper, but I am sure it is great and someday I may get one, but in the meantime I...

    AT Buyer issues

    I have been looking at a few Vipers that I may be interested in buying. One in particular was advertised on AT. I filled out my info and emailed the contact, no response. I called the next night and reached the AT private screening service that asked all of my info including a couple of...

    I hate most people, they have no respect and are a waste

    I never leave a Viper out of my sight. On the few times I have been away from it, I could see it. When someone gets to close, they get a horn blast from the lock button on the remote. It does happens with Vettes too. I just had a conversation with a friend of mine that somebody hocked a wad of...

    Gallardo.....Scuderia.......Gen V Viper

    For some reason, I could not see myself in a Ferrari, but could in a Lambo. Kind of the same way, I would not have a Mercedes, but I have had a BMW and would not mind having another one. Different strokes, different folks. I will not make a choice over the current Viper I have, but if I was not...

    SRT Dealer Locator is up!

    It appears there is some direction from either the dealer level or SRT with service. Same dealer last year let a kid take my last Viper back and do the oil change. Good kid. Yesterday the shop foreman took the car back and let me stay with it and torqued the drain plug per my request. He is the...

    I now have 2 local dealers that are going for Viper/SRT training next week. They told me they had to pay $30K to get on board.
