Welcome. There are several renown dealers that are supporting vendors here. Closest to you I believe would be Roanoke. Great people (among many here).

You can't go wrong with Roanoke. Every car in my signature I bought from Roanoke. Talk with John he will take great care of you. After you get your Viper be sure and join our VOA of Illinois. Just let me know and I can help you with that or if you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me.

Kind of far from you, but are you talking to Eastchester Jeep in NYC? They have a '13 red GTS that they are pretty eager to move!

I have not talked to them, talked to Croton in NY on the solid black one they have for 79 and Springfield Dodge in Springfield VA has a black with gunmetal stripes for 89. ive reached out to a few south and local with red, none seem to want to return the call.

I stopped at a dealer local yesterday and they gave me a # of 89k on a 2014 gunmetal GTS. really sharp in gunmetal. If i could get one of these guys to move on a red gts with black stripes id be all over it.

No stripes on the one at Eastchester, but they could always be added! Let me know if you'd like a POC there. Will get you guys in touch.

That's great news, but you've proven to be a liar!

You posted "in a week or so". And 21 hours later! :drive:

Oh, the falsehood! ;)

That shock can take a bit to wear off. We are ALL GUILTY of going out to the garage to stare at them.

Congratulations and welcome.

I hope to see you join officially as the club really enhances ownership. It's so much fun to go on a long cruise with a dozen vipers of all generations. It's truly an amazing experience.

Picked her up today. A slow ride to my shop. Time to clean her up to take some good photos.
Sounds so good!! Can't wait for warm weather to get here!

nice ride, this car may cause global warming because it is not safe to drive in the snow. so in a few years you wont have to wait for the snow to melt congrats

nice choice on the paint

Back roads from dealer to my shop not to bad on salt. I own a detailing/storage facility so when we got to shop we got right to work cleaning her up. I know pick makes her look black but she is gunmetal pearl.
