Guys and gals;
Amazingly enough, with a little good fortune it looks like I really may be in a position to finally pull the trigger on a GEN V (cash) to add to my stable. I have been considering used SRT GEN V GTSs (prices seem okay and initial depreciation hits have been taken). Found a real nice and clean 2014 GTS with under 10k miles which is pretty loaded up with every option available (except Stryker paint), all factory set up and was only flagged and passed successfully the R29. It was never flagged for R28. All warranty items have been complete. Full service history, one owner car. If this scenario takes place and the corporation talking to me buys my wireless communications business, then I am in the position to finally add another snake (will be keeping the 96' as well).
So my question is since Dodge extended the full factory bump to bumper warranty on certain flagged Vipers to 10 years, did they also provide or could they also provide an extended warranty option to other Viper owners in those years to pay for and add an extended warranty out to 10 years on their Vipers as well? They are already doing it for certain Vipers due to their own reasoning so why not offer it as an extended warranty Maxcare type of thing for any other Viper owner in those same years. I bet a number of owners would want to pony up the money for piece of mind. If this all comes together I would like that option.
Now with this 2014 GTS I am looking at, if my M&A goes through for my company, I will be asking the dealer to provide two things:
1. Blackstone analysis of the oil in the car. Just in case damage was done due to low oil in it's past. I don't know but seems like a fair question to ask.
2. Certification letter from a Dodge dealership that there has never been an arrow controller in the car in it's past, thus future warranty is in tact and that there will be no issues on warranty due to the whole Arrow thing.
Any other advice or things I would need from the dealer or Dodge to cover myself on this purchase from a warranty or other issue? I realize there is risk in purchasing a used car, but trying to be smart about it.
Also would be good information for our community if someone could get back as to if there is an option for FCA automatic extended warranties (10 years) to be allowed to be purchased by Viper owners who did not qualify for those given warranties. This car I am looking at did not qualify, which is great as it appears it may not be an issue car but bad as it would be nice to have the piece of mind of a 10 year warranty, incase god forbid something does go wrong in my possession.
Thank you
