Beautiful, lowered with Eibach springs and 20" Forgestar F14 wheels and almost new Toyo Proxxes R1's (over $3000 cost), menacing triple black , thousands in performance upgrades with no customization, BY PRIVATE OWNER (NO DEALER FEES, etc.)  and best of all, it's not red!  This car does have a Rebuilt title from very minor rear suspension and damage to original wheels. The damage was repaired over 1 year ago by top Viper specialists (74auto) and the car has been driven many miles since with absolutely no issues. It was dealer serviced and inspected 2 weeks ago (service records in hand), and recall N13 just completed (air bag check), all passed 100%. No evidence of airbag deployment ever and  I cannot see any evidence of paintwork except the front bumper cover which was just redone due to normal Viper rock chips/scrapes, and as any painter will tell you: Black color gives PERFECT paint match (not like red, black is black).  So the nose looks new (see pics) meaning you may want to put 3m clear film or bra, if you plan to drive it home. This car is just a couple of inches off the ground, and the 20 inch Matte black finish Forgestar wheels (19 front) look like the new SRT wheels (e.g. Hellcat) and combine to give it an exotic, menacing look, and I am always surprised how virtually every person you encounter must make some kind of comment on the car...many think it is new, the black finish and panel fit is superb (I have owned 8 other Vipers since '94-this is my last and by far the best and the strongest-I am just too old now...approaching 60.I prefer the 2003-up cars by so much, because they were finally able to correct the nagging items on the first gen-cars, much better aerodynamics/ergonomics, e.g. you can drive this car at high speeds w/the top down in comfort, while the 02 and down cars were like wind tunnels at 60mph and not true convertibles, and worst of all was the appearance w/the bulky hardtop in place...). 
Complete Performance exhaust, much louder than stock, fantastic V10 sound,  not sure if Corsa/Mopar- has stainless tips at the exit (nice cosmetic upgrade over stock), including aftermarket quality headers (thicker polished stainless at the flange (see pic) I did not remove heat shielding, K&N twin conicals and polished smooth tube intake (14+ hp), this is the factory Mopar Performance 44+ hp kit: Headers, cat back exhaust , reflash ECM , and P4510171 cam (7hp+-could not confirm exact cam) , see=> "mopartsracing-com/parts/viper.html". I am fairly sure the factory "H"pipe is gone with this system, as the cabin is cooler than others I've driven. A/C is nice and cold. Stereo has had an MP3 /Ipod attachment discreetly added hidden in console.Not sure if CD player works, radio does,  I use MP3. Navigation unit for this car is only about $325 common on Ebay (same unit in Jeeps) if you must have one. Interior looks totally stock, driver seat is excellent with no outer bolster damage (commonly seen as heavyset folks grab that left most bolster and squeeze it trying to hoist themselves out of the car). The only part of the car that shows any significant wear is the driver's floormat...it's not bad but for $75 you could throw in a new OEM set of mats and this car is ready to park in your museum or car show, as an investment...but driving it is addictive!!! 

Please call 505-426-6677 with any questions (evenings, we are on Mountain Time zone). Title in hand, private owner, no b.s. dealer profit fees, and also tax/registration savings, w/private owner who has been selling on Ebay for OVER 10 YEARS w/100% positive feedback. If you arrive/inspect car and feel it is not fairly represented, I will refund your deposit 100% and cancel transaction no problem,no worries.

I will try to take more pics, but my Kodak is not the best camera, and I live on a ranch in the middle of nowhere, (but near interstates I-25 and I40), my "driveway " is 2 miles long and unpaved, so even though the car is always garaged/covered , the car is a little dusty sometimes, after you get it back to the big city you can detail it to perfection. In the interior photos I didn't vacuum or armor-all it or any of those dealer "techniques" .The interior is in near mint condition, you can detail/shine it up to look like a 2010 no problems. The beauty of this car comes through even without fancy dealer photo shoots...
Please don't  call me w/"lowball" offers, this car is already at the  lowest price point for these cars even w/all the extras and no dealer costs. This car is even lower than many of the old 400/450hp cars yet the build quality, fit and finish is significantly better and the performance with the added power and vastly better aerodynamics (especially w/ the Eibach lowering/performance springs) is a huge premium. I can also help w/transportation or delivery and generally help get you into this car any way I can within reason . Everyone should enjoy a pure pleasure car like these at least once- I never regretted any of mine.

 Also...the last pictures shows the set of 2009 factory "Razor" wheels I also have for the car. 
Just google "viper razor wheels" to see more pics. If you prefer these wheels over the forgestar 20's I could lower the price. I actually prefer the Razors (I was going to put on an OEM 2009 hood, and have a complete update to 2008-10 factory appearance), but most people I asked preferred the 20's. The Razors have correct 2009 Michelin PS2's but the rears are only about 30% tread, whereas the Toyo's are 75-85% (6-7/32)...so that's the main reason I could lower the price for the car w/the Razors. The Razors are new OEM heels so virtually perfect cond-zero curb rash.

Chrysler expecting up to 200,000 9-speed transmissions for 3 models this year

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

Striving for improved fuel economy, we already knew that Chrysler will begin using a nine-speed automatic transmission in some of its new products this year, but what we haven't known is that volume at which this gearbox will be used. According to Bloomberg, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been quoted as saying that the automaker expects to sell close to 200,000 units equipped with this new transmission in 2013. Those gear-rich trannies will be spread out across three models, consisting of the redesigned Chrysler 200, the still-unnamed Jeep Liberty replacement and the Dodge Dart.
This transmission should play a pivotal role in making Chrysler vehicles more competitive in their respective segments. Just for comparison, one of the Dart's key competitors, the Toyota Corolla, still uses a four-speed automatic, and a previous report indicates that the next-generation 200 could get up to 38 miles per gallon on the highway, which is better than most non-hybrid midsize sedans on the market. Marchionne says that the new Jeep model is expected during the second quarter of this year, but there is no word as to when the new 200 or nine-speed Dart will debut, but clearly Dodge would like to have the transmission in its compact yesterday. As for that volume figure, it definitely doesn't seem out of reach since the Dart, Liberty and 200 combined for a total of more than 225,000 units in 2012.
How many more gears can we expect in future cars? Probably not many more, since the CEO of transmission-builder ZF, Stefan Sommer, previously stated that nine speeds was the "natural limit" for transmissions.

Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat in the works

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

In Autoblog's recent First Drive of the 2015 Challenger SRT with the 707-horsepower Hellcat V8 we found its engine to be as brutally powerful as the numbers would suggest, even if it wasn't the best handler. However, the muscle-car-styling just isn't right for some buyers that need four doors and proper rear seats to haul around the family. It appears that Dodge has their backs, though, because the Hellcat is very likely on its way into the Charger in the near future. Imagine the looks on your passengers' faces when you stomp down on the throttle.
According to Road and Track, when Dodge submitted the Hellcat for engine power certification to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the company included the Charger on the paperwork. That showed that the automaker wanted the engine checked out for the sedan, too. R&T reckons the 707-hp Charger would hit the road about a year from now, clearing the Challenger for a year of exclusivity with the powerplant.
When the Charger SRT Hellcat does hit the road, it may carry a very special accolade. Assuming nothing beats it in the meantime, it might be the world's highest horsepower production sedan. Think on that for a second. Even a Mercedes S65 AMG only has 621 horsepower, though a good bit more torque at 738 pound-feet to the Dodge's 650 lb-ft. So while the beastly engine is getting put into other models, where else would you like to see it? The Ram? Grand Cherokee? Let us know in Comments.

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.
