You could begin by listing it in our classifieds.

If you can drive it then come to Hooters in Barrie Thursday evening. The Ontario VOA is having a Wings and Cars event. Some of us will be meeting in the commuter lot at Hwy 9 & 400 at 6:15 and cruising up. Last event had saw close to 30 Vipers.
You will find a lot of friendly and helpful Viper owners there. But if you don't bring the car you may not get much helpful advice. Also, if you purchased the car locally someone may know it and may be able to give some background info. Bit of a drive from where you are on a weeknight.

I'd love to come and would have for sure had I known about it sooner. Barrie is about 90 minutes from us (60 by Viper). When's the next one?

Excellent...thank you...now I just need to find out all of the info on it so that I can list it properly.

**10PISTNZ** · 06-10-2015

Check out our Ontario website. There is a calendar of events there.
We usually have at least 1 a month. But they don't get scheduled a lot in advance.

TNT Motorsports built "King Snakes". I have been in the Viper community since 1994 and the only Super Snake model I have heard of was the Shelby Super Snake done by Fitzgerald Dodge in 1995-1997. You say the car dynos 600 rwhp. That is strong for a N/A Gen II and means it probably has at least an aftermarket cam and probably some head work. A clean title and carfax should help you to get it sold somewhere between 30-35K. IMHO.

**VoodooRob** · 06-10-2015

Great buy at $15k! Make it easy on yourself and sell it for $30k US. Double your $, and it will sell extremely fast as it sits. I wouldn't do anything to it, the new owner will be happy at $30k and will not beat you up on "this and that". Good Luck!

**Bmw2nv2000** · 06-10-2015

This whole story sounds so odd. If I was selling the car to you for $15k and you still had to have it inspected and dynoed before buying it I'd get frustrated and sell it to 20 other people waiting in line for this car at $15k. You had one awesome guy selling you this ride for that price and actually waiting more than 1 hr to be paid at that price. Im still betting theres a lot more to this story.
Like others have said Id list it for $30K and not budge on the price, and you have more than enough info in this thread to make an ad to sell it for $30k, so I wouldnt spend anymore time except listing it for sale. I'm betting you get a buyer just off this thread alone.

**City** · 06-10-2015

FWIW, I'd bet there are several members here that would take it off your hands for $25G's.

60 minutes is NOTHING. Shit that's just across town in Houston. Seems that's not much of a reason.

**Vprbite** · 06-10-2015

I still think 38 to 42 is a fair price to get a car that is heads and cammed and almost certainly has exhaust as well. If you have the dyno sheet and the inspection sheet, should be an easy sell.

It's 24 hours notice...the car is still in the shipping container and I have 2 little girls that need a sitter in order for my husband and I to go...otherwise, we would.

I have both sheets (they are in the car)...once I get it out of the shipping container, I'll post them on here.

The car was repo'd and offered to me for sale. The repo company only cared that they got the amount owing on the car...hence the reason why I got such an awesome deal.

**Alley** · 06-10-2015

I don't see a full roll cage in the vid. I've seen vipers with cages and there extremely uncomfortable and hard to enter and exit. Only a track guy would buy a viper with a cage which limits buyers. But like I said I don't see a cage.

**shnickerlaus** · 06-11-2015

Possible she is confusing roll cage with roll bar.

not only that. But the seller could have taken it to any dealer,CarMax,etc, that will write a check on the spot @ wholesale. Which is a heck of a lot more than $15k.
Definitely more to the story.

So you got a great deal from a repo company that also did a dyno for you. Thats odd and a bit out of their way. But ok. Can you post a pic of the new dyno sheet so potential new buyers can see the numbers and date it was done.
And im from Canada as well. Southern Ontario. And if its in the shape you say it is in id list it for around 40k Tops, Canadian. Much cheaper if you list it in the States.
Good luck

I would also suggest posting it in the Viper Alley forum classifieds if you include the dyno sheet and refer them to this thread. I would NOT recommend posting in the Viper Alley forum or answering questions there publicly, only through Private Messages. That forum is constructed to encourage people to act like asses to regular everyday people that are not hard core car enthusiasts or not knowledgeable about them. Because this is such an unusual circumstance and a car with no history, the car needs to sell itself, and the buyer has to know that it is sold completely AS-IS and should be picked up in person. The way to get more money for this car would be to get a known, respected forum member or vendor to vouch for it. That would be very hard to do from Canada and probably not worth it, given that it has substantial value as-is over what you have invested in it.

If this is legit, which it seems not to be, but if it is......... list it in the Autotrader and or Ebay for 40K and go from there. Seems everybody here is either trying to hustle a smoking deal or is pushing to lower GTS values even more. The Viper demographic has certainly changed over the years. Doesn't matter if it's a GEN V or a GEN I same negative advice on values. These forums have turned to the equivalent of "The house wives of New Jersey." It's not about the car anymore, it's about a bunch of socially retarded individuals hiding around the supposed love of the automobile.
