What have you been told about your Viper?

[Vprbite]

I have been asked if my 08 ACR was a real ACR before at the gas station.....

My reply was it has the wing, splitter, canards, and paint like one so I think it is one.

How many ACR Clones have they seen? That's a pretty expensive retrofit. Even being in the Viper community I have only seen a few. And I mean like 3.

[VYPR BYT]

I was told this...

"You have good taste.
You got the one with the stick shift... That's what I would have done."

[Helo Steve]

I've been told about the V12 option as well.

Best one was "I know that you can't go full throttle in those or else you spin!" They were serious….

You don't have the safety block installed behind the gas pedal so that you can only push it to 50%? Maybe it's just on the V-12 cars.

I was told this...

Did you tell him the waiting list in the automatics was ridiculous? I have heard some people have been on the waiting list for an automatic since 1992.

Nope, I live life on the edge!

I've heard so many, but that one made me laugh.

[Sybil TF]

He is lucky you didn't show him you could shove your foot up his ass while driving too! Wow, that's really pretty incredible. I bet you handled it with grace but I don't think it would have been rude knock him around a bit

He had a pos shit corvette, did I mention I am married to him?

He hates women drivers...

My Dealer told me before I bought it that my Gen V had 600 HP and you have to chip it to get 640 HP.

You should have refused to leave the dealer until he installed the chip. What an antiquated notion too of the "chip". He didnt even say you need an SCT or anything relevant to this day and age. That's funny.

So I was at Goodwood this past weekend, some old bloke walks around the car then mutters comments towards me, so is this car practical for our roads What a pillock!

Well I tell him yes, you can make tea and put sandwiches on the rear wing as it also serves as a good table

[PatrickB]

I've been asked about the V8 and V12 options a few times..

[Fatboy 18]

Yep forgot the V12 one, Guy with a V8 Vauxhall Murano (V8 Holden), walking around the car telling his girlfriend all about the V12

[Red Snake]

The neighborhood "Car Guy" asked me if my Gen II GTS was "the new Sebring".


Yes, he was serious.

[v10enomous]

One of my friends still thinks my GTS is a Stealth... He loves my GenV but has always disliked my GTS. Then again he thinks that my other buddy's base model 2010 C6 Vette is totally awesome.

Are you sure? Maybe he was playing you...

[Viper Girl]

How COOL he lets you drive it!

[Helo Steve]

Another good one:
Stranger: "Bro, are you crazy buying that car? There's so much maintenance needed and it's really hard to work on!"
Me: "Not sure where you heard that, it's not bad at all."
Stranger: "Wow, what kind of car is that anyway?"

I kid you not.... I don't like being rude so I just said its a Viper and went on my way...

That hurt just to read. How did you contain yourself?

I am not advocating violence but that is grounds for a slap across the face at least.

Amazing how many of us got screwed out of those 2 cylinders.

[Roddy]

Crazy funny! Can tell you about what's bad without even knowing what it is. Must be a new type of super-intelligence...

Beats me! I was going to ask, but thought better of it!

"They are not making Vipers any more."

"They are so unsafe that Chrysler decided to crush the remaining Vipers rather than sell them."

An edict like that would drive the price through the roof!

[GhostStalker27]
