This is a list of special editions, not "best" special editions. Best would only exist in the mind of the beholder...and likely the one in his garage!

It missed listing the 2013 SRT Track Pack cars.

I think my special edition one-of-one is the best, of course. While it was stuck in the shop waiting for parts, the service manager said it attracted quite the crowd, and a shit ton of pictures got taken. I should offer to let them rope it off in their showroom during the winter months just to attract customers. That would be a win-win - driving it during the winter over here is a white knuckle experience, so having it in a nice showroom would be a good place to plant it through the cold and rainy months.

I'll take this 1 off plush "Fake" ACR over any of those real ones or special editions. LoL :cool:

I really like them ALL..! Never met a Viper I didn't like.

Here is a little tease, a beautiful girl doesn't have to show you all her goodies at once. :t1567::t15197:

Why do these "experts" always have it wrong when it come to TA 2's. They always say that they were limited production, they were not. He says 96 were produced. There were only about 30 to 40 (I'm not trying to start a pissing contest) true TA 2's produced. If they don't have this right why should I think any of the information is correct.

After the store where I bought mine underwent a massive renovation, I extended an offer to display my Viper in their beautiful new showroom during their grand opening. Knowing that it would attract people, I wanted to do them a favour since they'd treated me well. The General Manager replied: "Are you nuts? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! Under no circumstances would I let you park your car in our showroom. This is a Dodge Store. Do you not know what kind of people shop here? They'd be stepping over the ropes, climbing on your car, knocking the stantions into it. A week in this place and you'd barely recognize your car." I was initially taken aback, but I ended up thanking him. And I had a good laugh afterwards thinking about how he described his clients.

Perhaps Dodge buyers are more respectful in Northern California.

Thanks :) That's a good thing to consider. And, it's true that a Dodge dealership probably doesn't have the same kind of oversight in the showroom that the Lambo or Ferrari dealerships down the road would have. It's likely safer at my house, even if I'm constantly setting mouse traps in my garage and wiping mouse pee off of the Suntek (which, by the way, is outstanding at protecting against mouse pee).

I'm the only TA expert we need. Whoever is confused will be served.

Special Edition cars just have different paint and are contrived as Special. Just ask any owner of a Heritage Edition FGT.....
