For Sale 1997 Viper GTS. I’m the 2nd owner of this14,500 mile beauty and have the documentation from the original owner whom I purchased it from. The iconic blue with white stripes is still the best combination ever produced. Only 1,671 GTS Coupes were made in 1997. This car is in amazing condition. The title is clean and clear. No paintwork or body repair has ever been done. The pictures speak for themselves. All fluid services just completed using synthetic based lubricants. This car runs strong and without issue. The Viper’s engine has been refreshed by Tator’s Garage. The timing cover leaked into the engine oil and I figured while it was at Tator’s, get it done right. The only mods on the car are $3K Brembo front caliper and rotors, a Doug Shelby power steering cap upgrade and a billet power steering pulley and bracket. Tires are in great shape with approximately 500 miles on them (Michelin Pilot Sports). I've only driven in on nice days, so no snow, rain, etc. The chassis is pristine. This car draws a crowd wherever I take it. Will entertain reasonable offers. I'll even throw in Maurice' Viper Buyers Guide.

Nice car! Looks clean!

Don't understand this statement though "Only 1,671 GTS Coupes were made in 1997 and only 1163 were blue with white stripes."

So 70% of 1997 models were blue/white which would be counteractive to say yours is "rare"?

Great light/filter/contrast in the last picture. Love the car and the color combo, but I could be biased... Hope you get what you are asking.

Must be a slow day on the forums with this few replies so far...

My figures were corrected and I don't believe I mentioned it as "Rare". If someone misinterprets it that way, good for me.

Actually 965 B/W couples were produced for MY '97, with the balance of 706 in red.

A 2-owner car that has been cared for, with full docs, original paint, a short list of (needed) mods done right, and now we're looking at a much smaller subset of that original 965 figure. So yes, to me this is a special car for the right buyer. GWLS

Yes. They are the Brembo calipers and rotors.

There was someone looking for a low mileage B&W on the VOA Facebook page just recently.
