When I saw your post, I just looked at the pictures again and saw the comments by the seller. WOW, what the heck. I have never seen unless the vehicle was a daily driver and driven in salty conditions.

I'd be asking what the frame looks like that is cover by the bottom car length diffuser, right?

[SRT_BluByU]

could simply be near salt air (i.e. near the ocean).

[Blue09]

1900 miles? probably not a daily, not near the ocean:

Location: Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin 54935
Chassis: 1C3BDEDZ4HV500572

Maybe left outside?

[John19]

There is a little rust on one of the rotors as well, very small amount though.

LOL ! I thought that I mistakenly opened up a Ferrari/Corvette/Porsche forum !

I hope that the explanation is that he took it out at Bonneville for some beauty shots. Or, maybe took it out of the garage on a sunny winter day and accidentally drove it on a salty road. Sacrilege!

[BJG32]

A little surface rust is such an easy thing to clean up prior to photos. Crazy.

I must be the only one who doesn't care for that paint scheme.

No, I'm with you. Ranks down there with the red, white and blue dealer edition for me personally

Oh man, I love the dealer edition cars.

[Scott_in_fl]

I have not seen that before and we're about as close to the ocean as you can get. It's odd imo, but if it were a real problem (i.e. left outdoors or displayed in a lot) then it would show itself in other areas of the car such as under hood and under body.

You must not have seen one IRL. Black is terrific on this car. Always has been.

Anyway, I previously had all SE car values pegged at the $220k-$240k range. I recently bumped up the top of range by $10k due to the #001 GTSR outlier car. So I now see the range at $220k-$250k.

This SE is a desirable series car with the lowest production numbers at just 28 cars. Miles are good. My guess on this one is $242.5k.

[John19]

Great color scheme. However, the Voodoo is my favorite of the SE cars.

I dont like the center stripe with the one offset stripe to begin with, but I also dislike the shade of blue in the DE. I like the RWB color scheme a lot better. Black with red stripes, especially these stripes, isn't my fancy.

My car is black, haha. Black with the darker gray (gunmetal) stripes and carbon (splitter, side skirts, wing, interior, etc) accents. I love the black. I think it looks absolutely incredible, especially when taken care of. I just don't like it with the red stripes (or most other colors unless its very dark). It's subtle and matches the carbon trim.

Otherwise, I think stripes should generally be left to brighter colors like the LE (or the inverse of it). I also really like the white with the black + red stripe, navy + white, and a few others too.

[Scott_in_fl]

^^^ Black with gunmetal is so good. My Gen III was black with silver stripes. I loved that car and had no issue washing it each time it went out. It always looked great!

[Fulltilt]

Is this ACR an Extreme version?

[1HOTV10]

Materials
"WisDOT uses an average of 526,000 tons of salt and 14,000 tons of sand per season statewide. The total storage capacity of salt for use on state maintained highways is about 562,000 tons."

Yes It is.

I love it. And it looks even better in person. Very sinister, especially since it's lowered (a lot!). Very deserving of the name "Viper."

Really ?

[RT SERPENT]

Absolutely stunning!!!! The ultimate spec to me :)
I'll guess $260k

[Scott_in_fl]

Really ?

Valid point. Only 22 of 33 planned DE's made, correct? Not only are there the low numbers for the DE, but also an interesting backstory.

[Policy Limits]

Imo if the 1:28 had red wheels it would be perfect

There are those other 10 made as an edition for another dealer.

No 25th Anniversary dash plaque = no manufacturer SE

Policy your friends, if any, must hate you. You are like the Eveready Bunny and just keep going. Getting really old.

No one will buy or value your car because of a stupid dash plaque. It would be because they like the model and color combo. Period. When a manufacturer makes 27% of its last year of production special editions they are not so special. What they are is ACR-E with generally very desirable color combinations. Sticking your nose in the air because a certain vehicle lacks a dash plaque makes you seem really small.

[Arizona Vipers]

I remember when I got my 2013 back in 2015 the engine cross brace bolts were rusted and it was an Arizona car....

[ViperJon]

Perfectly hideous. Those red wheels are the equivalent of the yellow wheels on the 1996 McDonald's Vipers.
There's a reason they didn't duplicate it like that.

The only time JonB has ever led me astray was when he suggest buying a set of the red Sidewinders for my red/black Gen IV ACR haha

Luckily, there's been so many times he's helped me with things that I just casually overlook that terrible judgement call.

[ACRSNK]

You’re the one that bought those. Lol.

[City]

Let's please calm down the personal rhetoric (several posts ago). Thanks!

I could be wrong but I thought there was a beautiful gen 4 like that. Perhaps a 1:33?

[ViperJon]

Yes there was a Gen IV, but beautiful? It had red mirrors too....pretty much generally panned color combo if memory serves.
Which no doubt is why those features were not duplicated on the SE.

Yea they learned their mistakes from the gen iv. I remember the fat stripe gen iv's. Lol, wtf was dodge thinking?

Yeah that was a one year bust. It looked sorta cool from the front and was severely tapered but from the rear it looked hugeeee it almost took up the whole back. You very rarely see those in the wild.

Wanna place bets that it will beat Andy Wheeler's 7K mile track flogged 3 owner GTS-R at 235K? After all it's "low production".

I think I read where the average cost of a home in the US is just under $300k currently.

Obviously some areas will be SIGNIFICANTLY higher or lower.

Looks like the one that Chicago Motor Cars had for sale at $299,950 has now sold.
Not sure if it sold at that price?

Crazy thing to me is that most of the cars at dealers are selling for less than on some of the popular auction sites. Why are people not buying them that way instead? Strange....

My Viper to house ratio is admittedly pretty high, lol. I'll remove the rest- apparently ruffled feathers to say I live in a cheap house...

[ViperJon]

It was a rhetorical question. No need for a financial statement.

Jon, really matters to some that we know a bunch of personal details apparently. Ridiculous.

[Lawineer]

Oh Jon, it’s important that we know. Really matters.

I am also needing my neighbor to sell. This so I can finish my helicopter pad. My restaurant is 50 miles away but that’s only minutes in the air. My 10K square foot home doesn’t have a mortgage but the taxes are 6 figures so that sucks a bit

kind of weird troll considering I was saying the opposite but whatever.

Yea seems like a fair price given the last 60 days... Interesting watching all these beauties roll through..

[Viperenvy]

For now, but it's coming. :p

I'd be curious if this is the 1:28 that may have run some speed testing on that famous lake bed. I wonder what the underside looks like with the pan removed?


I heard the the price difference between a #1 and #2 can be as much as 30%.

[sssammm]

Why would the diffuser strakes be missing?

[Tunedprt91]

Maybe if there weren't two acr's popping up each week on bat the numbers would be different.

[ACRSNK]

I doubt it. Pretty much the same deal with Ford GT’s. Doesn’t seem to be slowing down the bids on those at all. Kind of the opposite. Everyone looking for one seems to be gravitating to that site to buy one.
