I just bought a 96 GTS. Car was found in my area by John Gastman at Roanoke who put us together. Car first bought by a
Texas dealer who was going to keep it and did not title it. Car sold thru Roanoke in April 2000 to a party in North Illinois. It
was then sold in Sept 2002 to man I bought it from yesterday. Car is spotless with 3290 miles. It has non deductible
waranty till April 2007 and Roanoke has done all care for the car since coming from original dealer. I did not intend to buy
this soon but felt I could not turn this car down. Previous owner is keeping car for us till we are ready to bring it home.
Sorry that I don't have any pictures to post but I'll try to get some.

Car is near St Louis but on Illinois side. Could very well be your old car. If it is I would like to talk more to you about it.

How far from STL are you? We're having a little (10 or more cars) gathering tomorrow. P.M me if you can join us.

Congrats on the car. Excellent choice!

We have members from the Gateway region that frequently attend events from as far north as Springfield. Also have a few that come over from Trenton and Vandalia. If you'd like to meet up with us sometime, send me a message, or join the VCA thru the site.

I know there is a depressed market for vipers but I'm willing to venture that you paid a healthy price (48k-50K) or more for your car. My 96 GTS had 4500 mi. and it was not cheap but the best car I have ever owned. Enjoy!

Car was bought as a graduation gift for my son next spring. We started to look for a
96 GTS because that is his dream car. When John Gastman at Roanoke told me about
this car we couldn't hardly believe it. Went to look at it that day only with intentions of looking.
I knew it was the car as soon as I saw it, even nicer than discribed. Bought it on the spot.
We paid over $50k but I feel I got a absolute bargain. I don't think I could find a nicer car.
