I don't think they made one although I wish they did.

One was never officially made. I ended up having one custom made to add to the collection

Never seen one.

Couldn't find one here either for a friend with a sapphire GTS so his g/f hand painted one with fingernail polish to put on top of his b-day cake. What a gal!

Your right, she is quite a gal. Hey RXVIPER. I ordered the link you sent me from ebay. IT IS SAPPHIRE. I will post a photo of it. Sapphire 1:43 RT10 with silver stripes. I will try to find the link...

Here's the link to the ebay item;

Matchbox Superfast #65 Dodge Viper RT/10 -- BLUE! - eBay (item 200267501912 end time Nov-01-08 02:25:52 PDT)

Since it's Matchbox, it is technically in the 1:55-1:64 range. Here are a couple better photos from my site (it's a Gen 1 RT/10). But so far the closest thing to sapphire ever issued. Now that I'm a sapphire owner, I'm looking into having 25-30 custom made using factory paint (stripping down a GTS and spraying it).

Looks like that car could do with the springs being lowered

That's it... Please let me know if you have any of the custom Sapphire cars available to purchase. I would love to get one. What size were you going to use?

I agree.

I wish the dub city made a gen2 that I could paint. I'm running 20's and they setup dicasts with big wheels.

I may just end up painting a gen 3 dub city hard top and calling it good.

There IS a sapphire Blue viper color, I saw one in a dealer for sale NEW back for the 2001 year here in Miami, and it was an ACR. Then I saw another in a car show a couple of years later and the owner told me he tried to buy the one that I saw but was priced to high so he ordered one. That said there is atleast two made. I believe it was a 2001 one year color option.

If/when I do it, they'll be Matchbox/Hot Wheels sized (to keep the base price down, and that's what I collect). Last time I ran the numbers though, labor and paint was going to run nearly $20/each! I guess because of a minimum order for the paint...

I was thinking about painting one but I wanted a GTS in a box.

 

[SNKEBIT]

What you guys wanna pay for a GTS repainted in 1/18?

 

[Indiana]

What are you proposing?

I just picked a 96 that looked to be a little on the dark side and they sell aftermarket wheels for them. I think it looks close to my car. See pics
