Last Monday, after an 1,800 mile round trip, I officially became a Viper owner! I ended up scoring a low mile (3,524 miles) 2015 White SRT w/ SWII's for 68.7k. I have always been intrigued by the Viper's sheer presence, rarity, and rawness..and boy does this car deliver just that!

Congrats. While I love that you got a great deal....that price doesn't bode well if I wanted to sell my 2013 SRT with 13,500 miles. Values are hitting new lows. Great for new buyers like you, not good for sellers.
Beautiful car.

I wouldn't worry too much. He got a great deal, which could also be an outlier.
OP! Great price on a beautiful car. This car wears white well. Enjoy the honeymoon!

congrats and welcome to the group. That is a pretty killer price you got.
definitely be sure to keep an eye on oil levels, which caused some issues for owners who didnt keep an eye on it.

Honestly, I believe whoever set the price of this car at the dealership goofed. Compared to the rest of the market, I think 75k+ would have made for a quick sale. This car was priced right along with 2013 and 2014's that had 20k-35k miles.

they probably depreciated it like any other used dodge and didnt actually look around at what true market values are.

I completely agree on it being an outlier. These deals only pop up a few times a year - mainly due to the lack of research before setting prices.

Thank you! I have been checking the oil level before each drive. It may be a little excessive, but I figured you can never be too careful! Lol

actually should check it hot within 5 minutes of engine shutdown as per the manual, they want the oil cooling system accounted for when checking the oil levels. So therefore when the engine is cold it will read high

It's that funny you say that..I am actually considering painting or wrapping the taillight surround black. Lol
You got my twin. I love white. Congrats and enjoy!
I sure wish it had the TA1.0 aero like yours looks to have!
Congrats and please drive it as much as you can
I plan to! We've had some great weather this past week, so I've driven it nearly every day. I got the car with only 3,524 miles and it now sits at 4,932 miles :drive:

Beautiful car.

That all white rear looks damn good on it! Great deal on that car. I think dealers just don't like having these cars sit on the lots with all the tire kickers and test drive BS they have to deal with. I threw a VERY low offer on the table when I found mine and they took it. Those deals are SO hard to find though. Took me a year.... But yea man, you got one of the best deals I've seen since I've been here.
Quick Tips:
Check the tire pressure. Mine were way too high from the dealer. Rode super rough because of it.
Do not turn traction control off until you REALLY know the car. First week I damn near put mine in a wall mid turn with just a little extra gas. Traction control saved my ass.
Don't slam the doors. My window boss broke super quick. It's a weak point but easy to replace "upgrade".
Roll those windows down and ENJOY! rock on

The great thing about white is it's a blank slate and all kinds of personalized things can be done that look great.
