Well I finally brought my 97 GTS home. I drove from Dallas to Orange County CA and man I will never forget it. It was roughtly around 1500 miles. Got to know the car and I am happy to say its solid. No problems at all. I did however
manage to get a ticket in Van Horn Texas. The cop was cool and even had a flyer with him to tell me how much it was going to be. I was going 80 in a 65mph at night and 70mph day speed limit. It was kinda of funny to me because it was at night and I had the map light on checking my progress when all of a sudden I see the lights right on my *ss. Man...but that was nothing compared to when I was going thru Lordsburg New Mexico. It started snowing on me and I thought I was screwed. Anyway, enjoying it very much and very happy I bought this GTS over a Vette.

That smile on your face and flutter in your heart when you fire her up will never go away!

Congrats on the car. I've never heard of the day/night speed limit change. What happens if you get a ticket at dusk? Split the difference?

If you had Texas plates, there would bave been no "California Viper Tax" to drive 80 through Texas!
