How many Yellow 2005 SRTs?

[viperbob]

Plain yellow convertibles - not the special editions...anyone know?

 

[bigmike32172]

Well I have one!
I think this has been asked a couple of times before, and no one knows the answer, but everyone knew how many were made of the other colors.
Maybe when I sell it I can ask a few grand more because its the mystery color, lOL!

 

[YellowViperSRT10]

I agree, i want to know how many also.

 

[Sandy G]

I was told that 102 had been built in 2005 and that some where is the 90's were still in one piece! Count me in for one Yeoow SRT-VERT!

 

[phoenix1]

I've got one!

 

[Frank17]

I got one too in Aug last year.

 

[flexcalibur]

I got mine from Bill P. last march. Only has 760-something miles. Only mods thus far is just a set green filters. Thinking of the DC ECU soon.

I would sell it if anyone is very interested, and for a very fair price.

 

[Sandy G]

Looks like a least 7 are still accounted for!

 

[Sellshomesdrivesviper]

I'm still YELLOW!!!

 

[29OUTLAW]

About a year ago, someone posted fairly good evidence that just over 300 were built.

 

[Sandy G]

If there were about 300 built in 2005 in Yellow, that would account for almost 25% of all the production for the year. I thought there were about 1500 total produced. Coperhead's, silver mamba's, red's, black's, white spec. edition...I still say about 100! Who can give up the info?

 

[NHL2133]

Sorry guys, you are all wrong, there are only eleventeen Yellow 2005's.

All joking aside now, I'm not sure that we will ever know true production break down past 2002. From what I've heard, the person at CAAP who kept track of production left or retired, and no one has really kept track since. Big-n-Italian has been taking care of the registry for a while now, and I have given him more then enough crap about getting the numbers (sorry Big). If the numbers were out there I'm sure he would have found them by now. I am not giving up hope that we will see some hard numbers at some point, but I'm not holding my breath either.

There must be build/order data stored in a computer somewhere I imagine, all that would need to be done is sift through everything to get the relevant things out of it. Though I have read that such a thing can only be done up until 3 years ago.

 

[Dakota Viper Collector]

I have one with 600 miles.

Where it the 1500 come from. Up until about 03/04, annual production was around 3000.

 

[Sandy G]

What is the total amount of Vipers built from day one till now? Questimate........

 

[NHL2133]

What is the total amount of Vipers built from day one till now? Questimate........

In order to answer that, one would need to know how many vipers were built between 04 and 06. But to play along, between 1992 and 2003 there were 19,824 Vipers produced.

 

[Sandy G]

How would we know that production was around 3000 if we had 19,000 built in 11 years. That looks like about 1700 a year. Did it double in the past 2 or 3 years?

 

[doctorbob]

You will have to scratch one....there are only a few vipers in my community and last weekend somebody's son-in-law lost control and drove into a fence at one of the anestheologist's front yards. No one was hurt but the car was totaled...so there is one less yellow viper in the world. I will try to get a picture from the anestheologist and post it.

Looks like there will be some parts on E-Bay soon.
Too bad I already spent million$ on fixing my engine, I would have inquired about his.

 

[Alabaster Mamba]

There have always been about 1700-1800 Vipers built/year including the ones designated for overseas as well as Canada and Mexico. In fact, there were some pretty good numbers given in one thread a while back. It actually gave a pretty good listing as to the 2003-2006s with a color breakdown as well. I believe the Slate ones were the rarest of them all. You might do a search and be able to find it. I actually sent an email to Dodge inquiring about the build/paint scheme numbers and they said they would have them shortly but that has been about a month ago and no numbers as of yet. The email address was on Dodge.com.

 

[Lawrenzo]

During a meeting with the SRT head honchos on our Stuttgart trip, we were told that the numbers were not readily available, but they were working on ironing them out.

That was the first week of December. I guess it was a bigger mess than they thought

I've gotta find my Maurice Liang book. I haven't been able to find it since I moved. I seem to remember it was his book that listed yearly production numbers at around 3000+/-. His book also has it broken down based on model year right up to 2003 (or perhaps it was 2004 but I can't remember and I can't find the book)

 

[29OUTLAW]

I found my Laing book and folks were right. He only goes up to 2002 in listing annual numbers but it looks like about 1500 - 1800 per year. In 1994 he lists 3083.

 

[viperbob]

This is pretty sad...why can't DCX be able to say how many Yellow (and Red, Black, etc.) Vipers were made in 2005 (and 2003, 2004, etc.)? I hate to say it but maybe if GM buys it we'll be able to find out. This is not rocket science folks, it is merely counting!!!!!
