Just sold my 2003 for $42.5K in less than a day, not sure how you'd get $10K less without damage or a "history", prices have been going up like crazy, time to buy super cheap I think has past us, but good luck, you never know, but check the VIN and carfax for what it's worth, a troubled viper can be a $ pit with no bottom.
Bought an 03 with 31k for less than the mileage. It's never been wrecked and had full dealer service records, but it was far from perfect. Clogged cats, curbed rims, both bumpers need some paint help (but not replaced), etc. I almost have it to where I want (body work done, no cats and gen IV exhaust, new Kumho ECSTA XS tires, etc.) and will have less than $33k in it by the time I'm done.
That said, you will only find a deal like that on Ebay or Craigslist. Mine was craigslist, bought it within 18hrs of the posting going up, and I had to race several other guys to the car with cash in hand. You can get it done if you have cash, patience, and are willing to put some work in.
Were you the guy who bought the one from Atlanta before I got to it? :/
If it was a silver 03 listed on Atlanta Craiglist on a Friday about 10-12 weeks ago, then yes I am that guy. I live 3hrs away but was driving it home at noon on Saturday. If it makes you feel better, you weren't the only other guy that was trying to get to it.
It did have the problems listed in the above post, but it was worth way more than the $29k i paid for it. I really feel like I may have gotten one of the best deals on a Viper in history. I had been looking off and on for about a year and found several with less than 30k in the $34k-$36k range. You may not get the deal I walked away with, but I know you can find one in that range if you are patient.
Hey Fill-up check this one out!!

If you buy it, you have to promise to help me find my 08 or 06 coupe for under 45K!!!
Goodluck, car looks good, and millage seems taken care of.
I haven't taken out a loan in my life, and don't plan on it ever (except for house )!
I looked at a viper this morning, a 2003 with 40k, clean title, no accidents, some minor scrapes on the underside of bumper, but noting else anywhere on it. However it was repainted a few years ago to match his other car or something, but the paint job is excellent, but not a fan of the color. But I drove the car and fell in love, however I am not sure what it is worth, also the rims I do not like at all, there 20's front and back and would immediately be buying stock wheels.
So what do you guys value this at?
