dealer never gave me cretificate

[BACKNBLACK]

Hi all..Need some help.Looking to purchase the 2003 srt-10 in yellow..My dealer said he has no certificate for me, even though i have the 2000GTS..What can I do to get this car by june???

 

[garolittle]

Hmmmmmmm..... I do not believe yellow is one of the colors offered in '03. Let's see what others have to say about this.

 

[SERPENT INDIANA]

This surely is a joke, but just in case....first there are NO 2003 Yellow Vipers(maybe 2004)....next, the dealer NEVER had a certificate for you.....YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO CALL CHRYSLER OVER ONE YEAR AGO to get a certificate, and you could only qualify if you still owned a Viper you bought new....they had to be turned in to a dealer of your choice and then wait like everyone else, I think the final deadline to turn in the certificates was Jan. 18, 2002...there are a few Vipers on EBay, but not yellow.....try a high volume dealer like Woodhouse Chrysler in Blair Nebraska and get in line for a 2004 model....1-800-889-1893, ask for Bill Pemberton.............................stay tuned to the Viper board or better yet, why not become a member of the Viper Club of America(VCA)...then you will be informed about these things....

ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer..So excuse me if I didn't know to ask the gods in here what colors the car came in since I am not a big fan of the model..I was trying to do a friend a favor about this ugly looking Viper..And yes I did bye my car new..Thanks as usual for the Viper board bull$hit answer I get...

 

[SERPENT INDIANA]

Maybe your dealer has a certificate for your friend....ps...tell your friend they are ugly and he can save his money too !!! Might as well let someone get yours that really wants it !!!

BACKNBLACK,

SRT10 colors for 2003 are Red, Black and Silver.

Cert..'s procedure was mailed to all registered Vipers owners who purchased it new and still owned it.

Cert..'s were issued and orders entered for the total 2003 production run by Jan 18, 2002. There will likely be a few 2003's available as some orders will not be completed with the Cert. holder.

Moderators: Review "backinblack" response which I believe is not in keeping with the "standards" set by this board.

 

[EdwardETraylorIII]

Why is it, that on this board, it NEVER fails....?

Someone asks a QUESTION (*** are boards for???)

And folks ALWAYS [on this board]

or decide to take the low road and pick on them?

Amazing.

Speaks a lot for your character! Sadly it's very, very typical.

Ed III, I really don't see that the response by Serpent was disrespectful. He stated the facts but prefaced it by asking if this a joke. I would have to think that all VCA members would know what the program was. Since the person posting the question bought a new Viper he would have been automatically given a free membership for 2000 or 2001 (depending when the purchase was made). Maybe the question should have been asked differently as it could be construed as being fictitious.

 

[SERPENT INDIANA]

My initial response to BACKNBLACK was not intended to sound like a smartass(I also ask stupid questions here from time to time)....I doubted the validity of the question, but gave as many facts as I remembered....I just couldn't imagine a Viper owner not being aware after 14 months of how the program worked if he REALLY wanted to purchase a 2003 for himself ....probably not a regular visitor to any of the message boards....I was also a curious why the dealer didn't have the answers for him in the first place .....I even tried to give him ideas how to find one(Ebay, Woodhouse)...his next message tells the story, he is "not a big fan of the model" but wants one by June.....then we find out it is for a friend "customer?"....he doesn't want one of the ugly cars for himself....my second response WAS that of a smartass, try to give somebody information and help ???....The whole thing just looks to me like someone who just found out the cars are possibly worth more than MSRP and is trying to jump on the ship as it passes by....I don't have any trouble with him trying to make a $$$ on the car...it was the fact we were given the wrong story in his first post....Personally I could care less what anyone does with these cars ...I intend on owning one '03 till the second '03 comes in, then disposing of the first one...I don't keep cars too long anyway...my story is closed here....happy Vipering

 

[Fred(DrivingSchool)Kinder]

SERPENT INDIANA, Your answer seemed reasonable and in good taste. There was no rational reason, for BACKNBLACK, to get upset with you or this board, IMO.

Guys...

BNB has been around for quite a while...no novice to this board OR the SRT-10. He does like to stir things up and I for one have liked a lot of his posts...very entertaining.

Seems like BNB is just having some fun with the SRT part of this board.

No fun intended to any board member here.But I am not a fan of the car, and yes it is for a friend.My dealer did not give me the certificate even though I bought the car new in 2000. It seems that many on this board have alot of spare time to judge and critisize others. I haven't been on this board for awhile now, and yes I do love to have a good laugh most of the time, especially now with the responses i am getting about the new model. I don't understand one thing. Why are there such serious people in this room and why do your feathers get all ruffled up when asked a question?? You guys seem to be stuffy kind of people..Here is a person that has no clue on the new Viper and doesn't really care..SO I asked..WHATS THE BIG DEAL!!!!!!!WAKE UP!!!!!MY GOD, GET A LIFE.......ps- to the guy that gave me a private message..he knows who he is..go F^&* yourself....

Buying the car new in 2000 and still owning it in 2001,only gave
you the ability to apply for a certificate. Your dealer gives you
nothing.

All responsibility for getting or not getting depends on you.

This board was where you would have gotten the information at the
time and probably no where else.

I told friends of mine who don't frequent the board about the program.

Maybe try making more friends....

Yo Tony...Am I the only one here that still recognizes you? You still have the GTS? Remember I'm the one that predicted you would not sell, not even for that new Merc. so that swap did not happen?

 

[jim93rt]

yo tony. I dont know waz up wit your cert man. maybe they gave dem out when you waz suspendid or sumthing. Just kidding Tony. If Mark O was still around he'd know you. Talk to you soon. Jim

 

[Steve Ferguson]

BNB, the dealers did not have the certificates to give. That was a program that lasted about two weeks through Viper Headquarters.
