Overview

The Viper was like nothing else on the road when it deputed in 1992.  It had just 2 seats, side exhaust pipes, no outside door handles, no windows, no traction control, and no apologizes.  Dodge had worked with the great Carroll Shelby to create this monster.  It had a new 8.0 liter V10 engine mated with a 6-speed manual transmission.  The first generation, 1992-1994, was not the best of years for the Viper.  With steadily increasing production numbers, with the most being built in 1994 with 2,890.  1994 was also the first year that Air Condition was an option.  Despite the low production numbers, the Viper was a hit with customers.  It is still being produced today, but the 1st generation cars are more sought after now than when they first came out. 

The car available here is your chance to get a brand new 1994 Dodge Viper.  With only 507 original miles on this car, it isn’t even broken in yet.  It even still wears its original tires.  You will not find a better example of the 1st generation Viper.  If you’re a collector this is a must have or if you’re somebody that dreamed of having one when they first came out, this is your chance.  It is like buying one brand new in 1994.  This is a one owner car that was only used a few times a year for parades and simple joy drives.  It was always garaged kept and never saw rain. 

Exterior

As you can imagine the exterior on this car is amazing.  If there are any flaws, they came from the factory.  The paint is spectacular, no scratches, dents, or chips to speak of.  The doors, hood, and trunk all shut firmly and have good gaps.    

Interior

The interior is perfect.  The car was garaged kept and cared for, so there is no fading or discoloration on the interior plastics or leather.  The radio works great, all gauges work, and all lights work.  The soft top and side curtains have never been on the car, nor as the tonneau cover.  The tonneau cover is still in the plastic from the factory.  The top and side curtains are in the travel bags still as well.  The side curtain windows are clear and show no sign of discoloration.  All the bows for the top are also in the big with the top itself.

Mechanicals

The car runs flawlessly.  We have not driven it but a few miles, due to its extremely low mileage.  We do not want to add any more miles than needed.  Unfortunately we have not service records for any maintenance, but all the fluids are clean and full.  We would recommend a full service and for sure new tires if you plan in driving the car regularly.  The tires do not seem to be flat spotted or out of round, since it was used on a yearly basis, but given they are original to the car their age would be an issue if used regularly.    

Literature and Extras

Every book, manual, and even the VHS tape that came with the car showing how to operate the hood, install the side curtains, rear glass, top, and tonneau cover. The car also come with a factory service manual in a Viper hard case binder.  The spare keys, which are still in the plastic pouch.  We also have the original window sticker and delivery paperwork for this car.  The spare tire and all the accessories are in the trunk. 

Conclusion

You are not going to find a better example of the 1st Generation Viper.  It is a time capsule that can’t be replicated.  The Viper is a rare case where they are collectible while they are still in production.  This is your chance to own a new 1994 Viper RT/10, just 10 years later.

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.

Custom 2014 Dodge Durango R/T proves SEMA can be subtle

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

The annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas can often be a sensory overload of overwrought madness, with cars that don't even look drivable anymore. But every once in a while, a modestly modified show car graces our presence, like the customized Dodge Durango you see here, which, in addition to giving us our first glimpse at the aftermarket possibilities for the refreshed-for-2014 model, proves that a car doesn't have to be slammed, scooped, donked and Lambo-doored to have presence.
Sure, this Durango has custom hood inserts, dark 22-inch wheels and custom fender flares, but as far as external modifications go, that's it. Inside, Dodge has fitted new door sill guards, an ambient lighting kit, bright pedals, premium floor mats and - of course - Katzkin leather. The automaker has even added wireless internet connectivity as part of the excellent Uconnect infotainment system.
Performance upgrades are minimal on this Durango R/T, which comes packed with Chrysler's 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Larger brakes have been fitted, as have lowering springs (though it certainly doesn't look that much lower) and a custom exhaust.

MotorWeek remembers a better time for Mitsubishi performance

Fri, Feb 26 2016

Dodge still knows how to create an capable performance car – look at the Hellcats, for example – but the same isn't true for Mitsubishi. With the Lancer Evo's demise, we don't expect driving enthusiasts to clamor for any of the Japanese automaker's other products. Things used to be different, though. As MotorWeek found in its new Retro Review, the 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 and its sibling, the Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo, were impressive sports coupes in their day. Dodge and Mitsubishi packed a bevy of cutting-edge tech into the coupes. In these trims, both sported all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, an adjustable suspension, active exhaust, and automatic climate control. The 3000GT VR4 upped the ante even more with active aero parts at the front and rear. Their 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 was good for 300 horsepower and 307 pound-feet, which were good numbers at the time. This pair put all their gizmos to good use, too. MotorWeek compares the all-wheel-drive system's grip levels to a Porsche 911 Carrera 4. When was the last time you heard any favorable similarity between a Mitsubishi and a Porsche? The Stealth R/T Turbo and 3000GT VR4 came from a special time for Japanese sports coupes, when every brand had a halo model. Whether you were looking at Nissan 300ZX, Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, or even the Acura NSX, there was a lot to like on the market. MotorWeek's latest Retro Review offers a great reminder of that period.
