I have a big favor to ask of someone in the Clearwater area..I've got my eye on a 2001 Race Yellow RT with 6000 Miles .
The car broker I spoke to said that its in Mint condition and runs perfect but the pictures he emailed me are somewhat blurry and do not show any detail .

Before I take the plunge I'd like to have a VCA brother go over and take a look at it and give me there honest opinion.

If this is not too much of an inconvienience for someone Please email me at [email protected] so I can give you my Phone # and we can discuss the details.

Thanks !!

Jeff

Who has the car ? Also noticed you are in Ca, there is no way I would buy a car that is that far away from me.....there has to be one closer to you. I will be in Clearwater tomorrow night but I will be leaving Saturday morning. If they really want to sale .... and you really want this car, get them to take it to Vipermeds shop in Tampa......25 minutes from Clearwater. It will be the best money you can spend.

Hi Jeff

I tried to email you with "failure delivery"I own a viper shop in Tampa and would be more than glad to check out the car for you at no cost.I would prefer to have the car at my shop to put it on a lift and check it out thoroughly.It is about a 30 minute dr. to my shop from clearwater.If the broker will not obligate you.then either he doesnt want to sell or has something to hide.I would not give my endorsement to a car that i cannot thoroughly check out.give me a call or email.

Tony I agree 100 % , i'm not about to drop $50 K + without getting a clean bill of health.

Thanks for the input !

Yes they are! Chuck, VIP-RT/10 (i.e., Antonio), and Gerald checked out my car for me a couple years ago before I went to the trouble to come down, view it, and get it.

Antonio and I will check it out. Anyone else is welcome. We usually take the car for some high speed bridge runs, some salt runs along the beach, a greasy, hotsauce Winghouse run and finish it off with a 6-hour boobfest at Mons. We're very thorough. Vipers are always able to survive our "examinations" and we usually get 20K knocked off the price.

Anybody else that wants us to check out a Viper for them let us know.

Don't get that discussion started on Mons again...I STILL miss that place.
Omg I'm going to clearwater just to visit that place again, oh and to spank Gerald with his Dlm car :p Man I still dream of that place, next time the Viper is coming with me :D

Jeff I hope it all works out and you get the Viper of your choice :)
