2008s Rolling Off the Line

[Andrew/USPWR]

Thanks Ken,

In looking at that raffle car(it will be mine of course), it appears the interior not black. Is it another color and maybe one to match the stripes?

Don't think anything was listed about the interior? Yeah, in the pics it looks like champagne/tan...maybe to match the stripes as you suggested? That would look nice...of course, in MY garage Mr. DoctorBob~~ ~juli

How many different letter designations are there during a build process? I've seen "I" (and know what it means) & I've also seen "E" (don't know what that means.)

It appears that mine was in D1 Status which is Due to Be Built with no changes to the order allowed.

The interior is black according to some guy sitting behind me.

Ohhhh, well that will look awesome with the Venom Red!! THANX CHRIS...I mean, Mary! ~juli

 

[vincy]

We have a black one on order from Woodhouse. Do you have pictures of the car with the whole kit? Will the body kit and wing be available now? Thanks.

I skipped from page 1 to 3, so don't know if it's been asked & answered, but... Has anyone received their '08 yet?? I'M DYING OVER HERE! LOL

LOL--Hope you receive yours very soon...we are also anxious for your pics of YOUR '08!!! (Just showed pics of the Venom Red Viper coming off the line with a snakeskin behind it...looks like the VCA Raffle Car first, and then the champagne stripes need to be painted on it--doubt anyone has received their '08 yet...if so, PLEASE CHIME IN!!!!)

I thought since they are just going down the line it would be nov before someone got one.

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

Wings and splitters are not available to order at present, via Chrysler's Dial system ( where Dealers order the cars ) and prices will likely be listed when that comes up. The 400 lbs of downforce is interesting, as 500 was rumored for the Coupe, and I would imagine airflow is different for both cars at speed ?

The package will likely be available later from MoPar, so it can be retrofitted to earlier machines.

I Thought The Stripes Were Painted Before The Cars Were Built.

That is indeed the Raffle Car, being striped by PREFIX after build, as are all Vipers since 2006. The gal you have to schmooze to get shipped fast is Right-Front, probably the most senior VIPER Crafts-person, who goes back to MACK plant days. That guy on left, 7 back, in red shirt, sure is a handsome old gray-beard.......across is #7 right, he hangs here rarely, and very glad to be back!

Downforce quoted is MAXIMUM because the DF changes as speed changes. Since it is FIXED (thank the lawyers) you wont have figs avail at different angles of incidence. The Gurney-bubble of the SRT-C dumps more air onto the top of the spoiler at speed, so it is rated 500 vs 400 with Roadster

My guess is that the No. 1 Venom Red car looks different in the interior from the light reflecting from the plastic on the seats. The VCA raffle does no tmention a custom interior so I would assume that the interior is black on black.

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

Actually Prefix did the stripes on the Commemorative Editions in 2005, also.

 

[Y2K5SRT]

And YES, that is the raffle car! Here is a slightly bigger version of the earlier picture:

And the original BIG picture is here:

By the way, that is the new plant manager in the orange sweater and brown slacks down on the left...

The gal front right that you speak of is the one that came all the way from Detroit to fix my roof moulding. Awesome person, serious about the quality of the Viper

 

[doctorbob]

Hmmm...my new car is looking good.

 

[Andrew/USPWR]

48 hand-picked UAW workers assemble each vehicle.

That really is very impressive.

I love owning these cars.

 

[Red Coachwhip]

Has anyone seen the blue Viper lifted up in the back?

Edit: and more than a couple roadsters can be seen in the big picture.

That must be the Violet.

It's a look

We shall see, Mr. DoctorBob...mwah-hah-hahhhhhhhhhhhhh~~~~~~juli

 

[ulllose]

That guy 3rd back on the left kinda reminds me of MC hammer, I was wondering what ever happened to him.....

 

[Vipermann]

Yep, that looks like purple back there (to my eyes) ...

 

[mike & juli]

Violet...verrrrrrrrrrrry nice! ~juli

 

[2snakes]

I Thought Violet Was The Next Batch .

 

[RMBSRT]

That would be a GTS Blue Vert with Razor wheels....sweet!

 

[Red Coachwhip]

I'd say that's a GTS Blue. It seems that the green and the red are a bit off when compared to previous photos. Besides, IIRC, people who were at Saleen's saw painted panels in Snakeskin Green, Venom Red and GTS Blue

 

[ViperArry]

Autoblog.nl just posted a number of high-res pictures.
Haven't seen them before...... so I will post em here.
