What is this model Viper worth?

[V10SpeedLuvr]

I really like the window sticker and antenna, but noway am I paying $150 for it. Is that an accurate value for this car? TIA!

I have this model and bought it on Ebay for about $40 new in the box. I think these models were over $100 at some point. The main reason I bought this model was for the the soft top that is included. It is the only Viper RT/10 model I have with a soft top on it and I have a lot of Viper models.

Thanks, I can stomach $40 for it. Anymore than $50 and I'd have trouble pulling the trigger. I'll keep my eye out for a deal on one.

Its really a nicely done Gen I RT! I have one, don't display it quite yet, still new in box. It's a great addition, but not for $150. If you're patient, you can get it for a lot less...I picked mine up for $29 + ship!!! I think I got mine really REALLY cheap, but would have paid a little more. I see them pretty often, so they are around, just get one that you think is fairly priced.

Here is a series of closeup photos to show why this is such a great replica...very detailed in every respect, much better than Maisto or Bburago versions.

I did quickly check around for prices and the cheapest I found is $79. My $29 price seems way low now that I look at it...a super bargain!

Is the antenna detachable? I found some with the window sticker, but the antenna was not there. I could see a place for it to attach, so just wondering if it is detachable.

 

[Vipuronr]

Haven't really looked, think the antenna was in the box along with anything else that was to be attached. I'll have to take a look next time I have a minute to find it.

With mine it does, came in a separate small plastic bag.

As far as price goes, mine was also around $40 so keep looking for those deals and leave the chicken-with-golden-eggs alone, lol

This particular one could be a scam? Listed as a '95 coupe....

 

[Mopar Boy]

Or they just dont know their vipers....

 

[Vipuronr]

Just checked mine and the antenna is in the original factory plastic wrapper in the box. Window sticker is attached.

Thanks guys! If anyone sees one in the $30-50 range, please let me know!

 

[Vipuronr]

Did a quick search and the cheapest I found was $79. I'll keep looking.

I'll be watching it! Thanks!

 

[Vipuronr]

$40...seems like a good price considering all the others I've seen lately.

 

[Mopar Boy]

Better start bidding just to bug Chad.

 

[Vipuronr]

Funny....but he is part of our Red Viper Nation!!!!

By the way, is the red RT the only Viper made by Revell's Creative Masters brand?

I believe so. "This was followed by the Dodge Viper roadster finished in it’s distinctive gloss red paint finish."

That link shows their Camaro, but nothing on Viper...and, couldn't do search on their site for any other Creative Masters cars.

 

[Vipuronr]

Looks like they had a limited offering, about 10 or so cars, all issued in 2000, ranging in price from $99 to $129:

Actually, here is a more comprehensive listing of Creative Masters cars...unfortunately, this is the only Viper in their lineup:

Also, Chad, is this the one found at $40....6 days left, opening bid is $39.99. Just in case it isn't, here's the link to this one:

The link showed the webpage where I found the quote. It was at the end of the third paragraph.

 

[Vipuronr]

Yup, saw it! They did a bunch of Shelby's, a few Cobras some others, but only one Viper....too bad, great attention to detail.

 

[ViperArry]

Chad,

I still have one double.... think we'd be able to work something out.
Still in the box.

That's a nice offer, Arjian!
