Dang the cars are selling like hot cakes

Congrats on a great ride

[V1P3R]

Very cool, congratulations!

[mikesax]

Hoping to see a Gen V in the "wild" here in Jersey!! Congratulations!!

[Voice of Reason]

Awesome! Paint the taillight surround black, the contrast on the lighter cars looks great from behind. Especially yellow!

[FLATOUT]

Damn! Great looking car! Congrats!

[swexlin]

Wow! Congrats, and perhaps bittersweet for you...your Gen 2 was a beauty. I just left you a PM, by the way.

No way I'm selling the 98. Just adding another lift to the garage.

Lucky man! Looking forward to seeing it in person at an event at some point.

[Policy Limits]

Looks great. I'd keep the rear tailgate bezel yellow. Wheels compliment it well. Don't change a thing. Enjoy.

Wouldn't that be something, instead of filling up every time to the chorus of "that's my dream car, shame they stopped making them..."

[VENOM V]

Congrats! Bumble Bee paint combo is at the top of my list, looks awesome.

For the first time I saw a yellow Gen V with black wheels at a car show last weekend. I kept coming back to it to stare at it. Yellow just looks bad ass. The stripes are the icing on the cake.

Down the road if you're looking to treat yourself, add the OEM carbon aero package to it. Helps with stability at the limit and will complement your black stripes and wheels.

Whenever you see a corvette, be kind :)

[v10enomous]

I'm on the fence with what to do if anything out back. I thought I saw something about someone making a panel for the tail light area and some other factory like aero bits for the GenV. Anyone have a link ?

Immediate needs are a radar detector and clear bra so any suggestions are appreciated. I was thinking of a rear view mirror mountable radar unit.

I'd like to thank everyone on this forum and the other Viper forums for helping me make this decision but special thanks to my oldest daughter for graduating college and getting a great job and finally buying her own damn car... lol

[ViperSmith]

Mark j has the rear CF surround I believe - ain't cheap!!!

[VENOM V]

Xpel is nearly invisible, 3M looks not so good- tons of orange peel. My installer did my hood in Xpel but my front bumper cover, rockers and doors in 3M, because he felt the 3M is more durable.

The 3M looks bad enough that he offered to re-do my doors with Xpel for free. The paint on these cars is so gorgeous you need the best smoothness and clarity. Xpel would be my recommendation.

[FLATOUT]

Xpel or Suntek. I also had 3M (on my Gen 3) and it doesn't look very good. Current Gen V and my ACR had Suntek and I really like it.

Very nice indeed V10, welcome to the G5...like the stripes. Gonna be fun!!

[Track Pack]

I was just viewing that exact car - congrats! Awesome colors. Enjoy.

[thetalonguy]

Awesome!! Congrats on the purchase and I'm happy to see you're keeping the GTS. I hope to see at least one of them at a local show in the near future.

[ViperSmith]

god damn it i am now getting the itch for another.

[Kurt]

Awesome, congratulations Charlie! Can't wait to see it in person!

[Next Phase]

Congrats on the new ride!

Sent you a PM...

[Crotalidae]

Congrats!!! Great combo!!!

[NJDAVE]

Congrats on an awesome snake! Love that color combo. You will get lots of looks in that car. I would love to go for a ride in that once you get some seat time. Keep in touch v10enomous.

Sure... looks like you're right down the street from me somewhere.

[octopus]

Nice! The black wheels really set the car off. I haven't seen a Gen V cruising around Jersey yet.. Maybe I'll spot you on the road or at a show sometime! Post some more pics up when she arrives :cool:

[V10LEE]

Love the yellow with the black wheels.. Congrats!

[Bryan Savage]

Sweet ride! Wise purchase, young hobbit.

[ICPREY]

Congrats, great looking ride!

[Space Truckin]

Congrats, beautiful!!!

[JerseyGTS]

Congrats charlie!

[Bitten]

I have Xpel. Front end, mirrors, rockers and behind rear tires. Get an experienced installer. That front end has a lot of detail.

Big Congrats!!!

Same here, I was told Expel is the best on a white car as it doesn't yellow

[CSXT802]

Congratulations Charlie! Awesome looking viper. Can't wait to see it.

[MACH4444]

Beautiful ride! Any chance that Vehicle came from Naples dodge? I have been eyeing one like that for a few months now.awesome color/stripe choice! Enjoy.

[Nine Ball]

Great looking color combo, one of my favorites. Also pretty rare to see them.

[v10enomous]

The Bee landed this morning. I just drove it about 5 miles from where it was dropped off. No way they could turn the truck around on my street. It feels very familiar yet tight and refined. The clutch and shifter are perfect IMO and I love the little burble/crackle on deceleration. Wife loves it too so it's all good.

[swexlin]

Charlie, congrats again! Nice garage you have there too. Did the dropoff go smoothly, just signed some papers and off? There must have been a crowd of envious onlookers!

It was 6:10 am in the Home Depot parking lot. Smooth delivery and I would highly recommend United Routes. Top notch vehicle and driver and quicker and less expensive than Reliable.

[Smog Dog]

You gotta be on Cloud 9! Get ready for a lot of attention. SRT didn't make too many of this combo and they will probably dry up quickly at these prices. Those who wait for lower prices will miss out. Congrats again and enjoy!

I thought maybe Naples had trailered it with their own driver. Didn't realize you arranged it yourself.

[v10enomous]

Hey Smog... Yes... cloud 9. Looks like no race yellow for 2015 either from what I can see. After the price drop I jumped because I figured the longer I waited the tougher it would be to find various color combos. I was figuring on going with something lightly used but thanks to Chrysler a new one was more realistic for me.

Charlie,
congrats on the arrival! Looks awesome! I cant wait to see it in person & go for a ride. I will bet the GTS stays up top & rests for a while. The new toy will be getting much use I am sure.

I see a side by side in your garage. Where do you ride? I have a can am commander & I ride in PA allot. You can ride in state park land as long as your machine is registered & insured. I will PM you my number.

[v10enomous]

Oh that's funny. I've been known to throw some mud and snow around when I'm not out cruising. Yes ride in PA and NY. We need to talk.

I PM you my Cell number. Call me any time. I was just up in Tug Hill NY riding over the Labor day weekend. Awesome up there.

I convinced the wife we needed the commander to plow our driveway & it does an awesome job but we love to ride too. This is our off season toy when to Viper & boat are in hibernation.

Afraid to get the Viper mudded up? It'll wash off! Michelin and Pirelli need to come with some winter tires for these Gen Vs.

[PittsburghRT]

Beautiful! I love this color combo.

[Capt Van]

FYI, not commonly known but fact is that yellow is the fastest color by at least a tenth! :t15197:

Love mine,
