Since buying my Viper earlier this month I've decided to start trying to collect all 468 sapphire blue Vipers built in 2001. I've spent maybe 12hrs collecting VIN#s and details so far and I've currently got a list of 137 (nearly 30%)! Pretty sure this is the most complete list from what I've been able to research so far. Planning to eventually make the whole spreadsheet public and save a database of photos on my personal website once I've got it a little more developed and photos all databased.

If you've got a sapphire blue, or know someone that does and can share details...please reach out to me! I'd like to collect as much of the below information as possible, but obviously also understand if people wish to not disclose details about pricing, name, and location.

* last 6 of VIN#
* Trim (RT/10, GTS, ACR)
* Stripes
* Interior Color
* Photos
* Last Known Mileage
* Last Known Owner
* Last Known Sold Date
* Last Known Sold Price
* Link if Posted Online Elsewhere
* Comments (ie: username on forum, if it's a salvage, etc...)

Photo of my new Viper for attention :) I've got email notifications turned on to make sure no responses are missed.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Beautiful color….would you know if anyone has done this with b/w 97’s? I’m a numbers guy and love to see this kind of tracking. Thanks for helping the hobby.

I might start gathering data for other specific years/specs next year…but right now the sapphire blue is my sole focus. I’m missing a lot of the RT/10’s right now and haven’t spent too much time specifically looking for them, so I’m hopeful that I’ll get to 50% soon!

Jeff Gardner has already compiled all this data for the IVR,
other than maybe some new mileage/location info youre
about to put in alot of effort for something you could
probably pay him cheap to get.

Thanks. I'll reach out to him, tried contacting a different viper registry person earlier this month but the email wasn't able to be delivered.

Here's a link to Viper Jeffs registry. Lots of information and many hours of work on his part.

I had already been to the website, collected VIN#s of 27 sapphire blue vipers that were at least publicly noted. Unfortunately most weren't noted as a RT/10, GTS, or ACR with really zero details beyond the VIN#.

First Viper I tried to buy was back in 2012 and it was one of these beautiful cars. It had silver stripes with black interior. I remember it well. It had carbon fiber accents/surrounds around the radio area and a Borla exhaust. It was a buy back from a blown head gasket but it was repaired I guess under warranty. It had 12k miles on it. I offered $35k and he wanted $38k. Two weeks the dealer called back and said I could have it for $34.5k but I had just purchased a new C6. The car was in Virginia Beach. lol Wish I could find it again.

I think I found it. 703134
