    Car & Driver does it again.......

    What a joke. :nono: They 'handed' the GT-R 5 points because it has a Back Seat (no joke); another 10 points for Features/Amenities; and another 27 points for Driver Comfort/Ergonomics/Interior styling vs. only 18 points for the ACR (these three subjective measures all end up influencing the...

    '08 Weight Reduction

    I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find a large universal titanium muffler and put on a custom cat-back system. Much lighter than stainless steel.

    2009 Colors in the Real World

    I just love these 60s/70s kinds of colors... Here's a green '71-'73 Mustang w/silver stripes (like my first car in HS) for folks looking for Green ideas: And here's a '67-'68 with Lt Blue stripes on white, as another reference:

    Car & Driver does it again.......

    a) I'd like to see/verify this biased C&D comparison in print or on the web first b) I suggest it (or something like it) from the VCA, but that would be better from a VCA official, not little old me...

    Great Picture of Bright Blue

    I can understand why some GTS Blue folks have less affection ...how dare there be any other blue for a Viper? But for too many years, there were way too few colors -- Black, Red and Silver when I bought my '05. (Henry Ford would have been proud.) I think the limit on colors for so many years put...

    '09 Prototypes in NC

    Naah ...it could look really cool with stripes and lotsa stickers and numbers on the sides :smirk: Kidding aside, I've always been more of a fan of the brighter colors on Vipers because it shows off the aggressive lines and panels on the car ...the darker GTS Blues, Blacks, etc. seem to hide...

    Great Picture of Bright Blue

    I like this pic for comparison of VB and some other colors ...maybe a bit more of a classic sports car color (than SSG or Orange) ...like this:

    Car & Driver does it again.......

    That was my thought too ...although I could not find this comparison on their website (so I wonder if the posted results actually go with another magazine?). I offer the note to the VCA as a suggestion ...to submit on the reader feedback area of the C&D website: [email protected]...

    '09 Prototypes in NC

    '08 Weight Reduction

    I've always wondered what an aluminum radiator saves in weight (in addition to better cooling).

    I like the '08 Factory stripes ...IMHO

    royal purple eng oil in 08?

    Close to being totally confused. :dunno: I put 5K on my last SRT in 12 months, so it did a lot of sitting around. And reco in this regard? Also, I've got a '67 Mustang with a rebuilt 289 HiPo - the builder put 30wt. in for the first fill, but it's time for it's first change soon. Any thoughts?

    I've been told that there are Viper Blue cars built at CAAP right now. Anybody going there with a camera any time soon?

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    Since this thread is about throwing Viper clap against the wall to see if it sticks, here's a shot at Chevy: Maybe no more new Corvette designs for a while, if ever (especially after GM just blew a wad on the ZR1 ...2012 redesign on-hold?)? In the WSJ today: "General Motors is postponing...

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    A couple? As you would know from following these boards, most everyone here is worried, and has been (since 2006), about the Viper's future. The union contract has been known for some time. It's new information, facts vs. speculation and theories, that is in short supply. :usa: Btw, I...

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    If you sat down at the bar, I'd probably get up and walk away. Don't sugarcoat your BS now. The title of this thread: "IS '09 THE END OF THE VIPER?" is hardly the way to get to be known in a new group that is dedicated to Vipers. Especially when there have already been plenty of prior...

    Is '09 the end of the Viper?

    Umm, no, it's not really a shame. You might want to rethink posing such a question after only 7 posts. After all, this is a site dedicated to 'ENTHUSIASM' for the Viper. Do you really think nobody else here has thought about the issues you raise? With 7 posts, you've found a gap in our...
