I also love my GTS, but you better hope you gotta' LOT of mods. if you get beside a 2003! 50 more hp is a number to pay attention to!

 

[VIPR GTS]

I was one, of many, who posted negative comments after seeing the 2003 at the Detroit show. I was very dissapointed like many current owners. But, having been to MIS with a 2003 on the track with us and I have started to change my opinion. It is not as dramatic and I don't think it will have the classic appeal that we have, but it looked good on the track, it looked like a nice convertible, but not a bad *** roadster like the RTs.
So while I won't go buy one, it is not as bad as my first impression. I think others will like it more after seeing in on the road and we all must appreciate the power and the handling that Dodge is giving the SRT. They will be Vipers, like ours, so we need to accept them and respect what they can do, represent us well against the new Vettes that are comming.
