How come so few bright blue acr's

[wastntim]

Just wondering. I think they made about 7 of them. The one's I've seen pics of have looked awesome. Plus, I haven't seen a single one for sale.

Good question - maybe people were afraid to order them because they hadn't ever seen that color in person? Personally, I'm not a giant fan of the bright blue - the GTS blue is a hundred times nicer. But I'm biased

In a perfect world they'd offer GTS blue on the final run of ACRs when ordering opens up again. That color, with the red driver's stripe, would be beyond awesome. You can actually 'build' one of them on the Dodge site - is that a hint to things to come, or a hint that Dodge marketing doesn't know what's up? Inquiring minds want to know.

Well.... I made my vote and I didn't vote for blue. I just don't think it looks good.

I find the Viper an evil looking car and none more so than the ACR. To my eye the car just doesn't look right in 'candy' colours. The bright blue is an awesome colour but it's just not right to me.

Many folks HATE the black wheels but it would kill me to put chrome on my ACR...... Even silver...


When you make your purchase you chose the colour that you like the most - obviously not many people like the blue - me included.

I think this is one of the hottest colors. That blue in the daylight is brilliant.

It does look really cool, I agree

I am sure it is very difficult to pick a color when you cannot see it in person first. I know it would be for me.

I love the white acr with blue stripes as well, but can you imagine cleaning a white car after a day at the track?!?

 

[bluesrt]

i dont like blue

 

[BennyBad]

have been to the track with 3 of them, blue with solid black center and a blue with double black stripes and blue with double white srtipes. they are very nice in person and very fast (driver has something to do with it). there a like or love color not a hate it. my 2 cents

 

[Mopar Boy]

Never seen a blue ACR. Thanks for posting the picture!

 

[Red Snake]

I'd like to see an ACR in GTS blue also. That would rock.

There was one for sale a month or so ago on flea-bay, Bright Blue/Blk.Stripes with 250 miles..He also had 6pt belts,corsa exhaust,eng and tranny poly mts.I think it came from Woodhouse.? He posted it a couple of times with a BIN of 110K,nice guy, from Texas. I e-mailed him a couple of days ago and hes decided to keep it...Kevin

I place my vote on the Blue/Black.
Bought mine in Nov 08. Only 4 in the ACR designed black hood.
I am changing the rims to Forgeline SP3P Black Diamond cut.
Only other ACR I would have bought would have been A Yellow/Black.

Was not a big fan of bright blue till I saw one in a parking lot with about 30 other vipers yesterday. WOW. Really stands out, in a classy way.

Have now become a bright blue believer.

It is DEFINITELY a color you cant judge by pics. I saw a VBB/Silver SRTC in person and was stunned at how good it looked.

That "Carolina Blue" Viper is absolutely gorgeous.....hands down. Definitely in a class all by itself.

That blue ACR on the track has a blue wing. I thought all ACR's had unpainted wings (except for the stripe). Maybe I'm not paying attention.

I'll go look at some photo's.

Actually, I believe that only the red and black, and the black cars were supposed to have the exposed cf, all the rest were required to be painted.

 

[bluesrt]

cars with stripes wings get painted,all others get no paint i think

XTREMDRM - I own one of the four sisters. It'd be nice to find where the other two are. It's a great, classic color but cameras don't seem to do it justice.

That looks like a black wing to me........

It seems a little bit hit or miss - some have a painted wing, some don't.

With painted end plates. Interesting.

I asked the same question at the VOI10 Prefix tour. The answer was that striped cars get a painted wing (and I think the CF underneath is somehow slightly different), where as non-striped ACRs like mine get the painted end plates and naked CF.

 

[FikseGTS]

only the two-tone ACRs (black center) have the exposed carbon fiber wing, the rest are painted....
