    Someone Needs to Snatch Up this Gen4 Bumble Bee ACR

    I may be a bit biased on the color combo but this looks like a great car for someone...

    Looks like an awesome ACR for somebody and eventually it will pop. I do believe the Gen 4 ACRs will hold their value better than any other modern American Super Car over the next 5 to 10 years (not counting the Ford GTs that have gone through the roof).

    Normally I would agree but this looks pretty badass without it...

    Acr's are nice but not everyone tracks there vipers , i drag my viper so I can care less about making turns. I'm sure your biased about an acr but gen v for 70k is more inticing for with newer motor and new body and more power.

    Gen IV's are less prone to blowing motors and they use a lot less motor oil.

    Hi there my fellow Chicagoland Viper enthusiast. Everyone has there own tastes and preferences and although I certainly could have bought a Gen V Viper but I just don't like the Gen V body style versus the Gen IV body. For my tastes I believe the Gen IV is MUCH more aggressive looking of a car, way more raw and bad ass looking, versus the more refined and less aggressive looking Gen V exterior body style.

    From your Forum name I take it your a Chicago LEO? If yes, very cool my friend, very cool and thanks for your service!

    I have a gen 3 coupe but i love the gen 2 gts style where the hood opens like clam shell.. i miss my gts. Thats why i like the gen v because they braught back the hood. And thank you about the service . Much appreciated.

    Are you being facetious?

    Go to the gen V section and you will see plenty of talk about that. Would I buy a gen V if finances allowed right now? Absolutely. But it is a known problem.

    And I think the Gen IV ACRs will command a premium. Ring record. Overall badassness. Turn key race car. And some people's taste over the Gen V or Gen V ACR. Onviously the Gen V ACR is faster around the track but most of us can't drive these things to the edge anyway.

    Nice car! I hope someone scoops it up and then changes the Gen I interior : / (ya I'm not nuts about it either but wouldn't let it stop me)

    I have a Gen2 and and a GenV and feel like having a Gen4 in addition would give me 1 of each of the 3 truly distinct generations that a lot of folks recognize. I would grab this car but I have a few other priorities at the moment. This is a one owner 5k mile car in a somewhat rare and stunning color combination so it would be ideal.

    What am I missing about the interior? I only see a couple pics of the interior but it looks good to me.

    I believe the reference was to the two tone black/gray interior which isn't as popular.

    The Gen IV and Gen V engine blocks are made differently. I believe the Gen V's use a sand casting technique. Not entirely sure what that means and can't remember how the Gen IV's were produced. Maybe someone can elaborate.

    Ahh... That would be why I am inadvertently partial, that is the same as my interior. Strange, I have had both the solid black and the two tone and I think they both look great in person.

    Colors and stripes can easily be changed with poly wraps these days..with no harm to the original paint. I know, sacrilege!
    But it is an option to keep in mind.

    I agree the interior doesn't help the car.
    There's just something in-congruent about this exterior/interior combo.
    That lower color splashing you can get would really help.

    Good news is there are multiple ways to resolve the issues and make it flow.
