    "WOO HOO what a ride"

    Twenty five years ago I visited the New Mack Ave. Viper Plant to see my 1993 Viper. It has an MDH of 0205 but was not ready to be shipped due to a shortage of parts, as seen in the picture. It was delivered to my home on Feb. 26,1993 by Reliable Carriers. The Viper experience has been fantastic. Great people everywhere and I participated in all of the first time events starting with the 1989 auto show, 1991 Indy 500 Prospective Owners Invitational, 1992 Viper production, 1994 VOI #1, 1996 Daytona Rolex 24 Race, along with many visits with Team Viper, etc....... I was there and lived it while it was happening. Priceless!
    Special thanks to Chrysler's leadership and all Team Viper folks who worked their ass off to create our fantastic Vipers. The ride continues, Pat

    Great post!! I sat on the sidelines and didn’t pull the trigger till the fall of ‘96 when I got my ‘94

    I worked for Chrysler Financial when they launched and saw a number of wild transactions. Plenty of the ‘92’s and ‘93’s selling for 6 figures. The original Gen 1’s stopped traffic!!

    What an amazing experience! Thanks for sharing. Red Gen I’s still stop traffic.

    After getting my 97, I had a trip to LeMans with Team Oreca and a 6,500 mile one-way meandering trip in the Viper from Boston to Las Vegas for VOI5. I still remember these 2 trips so vividly. The Viper has been a joy and brings out the same visceral emotions today as on day one. I've never felt that way about other cars. What a ride indeed!
