Jon, what you are not accepting is that not every enthusiast that lusts after the TA wants to own a bright or flashy colored Viper. A number of members here have posted that they specifically only wanted to find one of the other colors. You want what you want, and you'll search, wait and pay a premium to get the car and color you want, whether that be orange, white or black. Not everyone feels the need to own the poster colored car, whether that be an LE, TA, ACR or any other. The Viper has always been flashy enough, been very popular in black, and I believe the only color TA's were available in throughout '14 - '17 production, and both white and black were the choice for most of the final year special editions. Many just love the Viper in white, black, competition blue and the full range of colors and could care less about what color the poster car was.

There's been a lot more orange TA's advertised for sale because there's more of them out there, and we've seen the extremes in their asking prices, but there's no evidence that they sell for more on average...feel free to show us otherwise. I'd suggest that the rarity and appeal of the other colors account for their strong values.
