How much are they asking for it? I would look at the paint to see if you can see imperfections (to see if it's been repainted..also look for overspray on trim and etc.) Look under the car too!! Look at the tires to see if there are uneven wear...how many previous owners?...just my thoughts..depends on price too.

THE YEAR MATTERS........you have yet to say the year, only an RT in your 2nd post. Any dealer can run the VIN and tell you past warranty work....

ps....PartsRack sells the clutch AND pressure plate as a set for
about $400 ! NEW.

Now that we know its a 95, Id say GO FOR IT. 95 was the best de-bugged Gen-I RT. But if you dont want it, I may have a buyer.......please advise by clicking the Email link below?

A '95 RT for $30K sound great to me! The type of miles and how well the car was cared for matters a lot more than the number of miles. Does the vehicle have a service history? 30 receipts for oil changes would make me feel real good about this deal...

I'm a player for it too. The cheapest one I've found was Steve Albright's in Cali for $32,000. I think it had around 50,000 miles on it and a hardtop. Perfect shape. It was a 1993

Car is still on E-bay for $30,300. I called the guy that is supposed to own the car. He's not real sure about anything on the car other that it's a Viper. Not a very bright gentleman. Just my two cents.

I see the car you are talking about. I think the car might go for $31k or so. But I think if you look hard enough you should be able to find other Vipers for $5-6k more with under 5k miles on them. I know it's another 6 grand, but I would think you would save that much in repairs alone in the future, not to mention the resale value in a couple more years! Just my thought. Best of luck, time is running out!!
