New year, new price. Price dropped to $65,000. That is my bottom dollar. Car will go back to stock in a month or so.

Beautiful pic. She's drop-dead gorgeous on all known vectors..
At that price, she'll be gone in a week or two.
Very sad to miss the opportunity to scoop her up. N' fingers firmly crossed she finds a great new home.
"Back to Stock" => Blasphemy! Don't even think about it....

Well, when it is about to start snowing all over the country is not usually the time to try and sell a Viper for top dollar. Lots of folks that do not want to have it garaged for months after shelling out the cash.
GLWS, your car should move quick at that price. Very well taken care of and a proven performer.
If I could right now I would but I can’t so I can just write about it. I think the car is fantastic and without a doubt purchasing a Viper that has already been; researched, modified, tried, and tested by someone with passion and experienced to make this Viper; fast, comfortable, reliable, streetable, etc. is an incredible value and by far less expensive than a noob like me purchasing a Viper stock and trying to figure it all out on my own. The time savings alone you can’t even put a price on, it will be an bullet proof car for someone, good luck with the sale and maybe I’ll be in a position to purchase your next work of art.
Next owner will have even further piece of mind, the car is getting a completely refreshed TR6060. I drove a new gen 5 last week and it really showed me that my trans is not as buttery smooth as it was when I took delivery of the car. I also had been noticing from time to time that I would get a slight grind in 3rd and 4th gear at random. Because of the inconsistency and rareness of the issue, I initially chalked it up to boiled clutch fluid (very common in these cars). But after Viper Exchange went through all the fluids a week ago (getting the car ready for sale), I unfortunately still felt some reluctance from the 4th gear synchro. I would never want to purchase anyone else's problems, so I sure as hell am not going to pass this off on the next guy. I want the next owner to get as perfect of a car as I can reasonably deliver--its what I expect from others (as naive as that may be).
Talking to Andy and Morgan they were pretty sure the blocker ring pads (being plastic and 9 years old) had worn away, and were causing the engagement issues. So we pulled the trans, disassembled, and inspected everything. I told them to replace anything and everything that had signs of wear. We found the blocker pads had indeed been destroyed on 2nd-4th, and as such, caused wear on the gear set and synchros. We also saw slight wear on the the input shaft. The list of replacement parts is as follows;
- 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th blocker ring pads
- 3rd, 4th synchros
- 3rd, 4th blocker rings
- 2nd, 3rd, 4th gear set
- input shaft
- input shaft bearing
- ACR .80 5th gear
Decided might as well make lemonade out of lemons, and if I'm going to be in it for a few grand I need to feel like I at least did something to make the car faster! So we did the .80 5th gear out of the ACR. Should make the car a beast on the top end, and perfect for 1/2 mile runs.
Feel the random need to bump this thread, stand up guy (as can be seen by the above), outstanding example of a modded Gen IV in the best available color (IMO). Whoever buys this car will be very lucky.
Well played Mr. Shelby, well played...
I see you've forced my hand.
Now I have no choice, but to respond.
The time has come for the entire world to know the truth.
I couldn't agree more!
I've secured a deal with Alex.. n' the entire purchase will be done through the fine folks at ViperExchange.
