I have an all original, 2003 Convertible Dodge Viper that is up for sale - perfect for an investment! - No
Accidents, No Problems! In April, 2003 a beast was born! It has an 8.3L V10 engine and is amazing! It is a 6 speed
manual and has been maintained by the Dodge Dealership. Clean, Clear Title, Ready to be sold. I have had it for
about 2.5 years and have zero problems. Great car. Comes with Viper Car Cover. Leather interior is perfect and
exterior is a smooth black that looks amazing! Everything works perfectly including the gauges. It does have ABS
BREMBO brakes for superior brake control. As quoted by many Car Magazines, this car is awesomely powerful and must
be driven with the utmost respect to its raw power and torque. With 500 horsepower and 525 lb-ft and only 3300lbs
it really moves! I am not a dealer, so SAVE close to $4000 with NO TAX! Please no joy rides. This car is a garage
queen, but it CAN BE the KING OF THE ROAD! Sure there are cars that are faster (3.8 sec 0-60), but how often do you
see a DODGE VIPER! This car gets looks and people are constantly stopping you at the stop lights tell you how cool
the car is. If you DON'T like attention, DON'T buy this car! I believe there were only 278 black convertible vipers
made in 2003 and probably half of those no longer exist,...there are 1/4 the number of Vipers compared to
Ferrari's, so you have 4 times better chances to see a Ferrari before you do a VIPER.
My favorite items about the Viper (in no particular order):
1) The sound it makes... It has such deep rumble as it passes through the neighborhood that it sets off car
alarms.
2) The rumble of the side pipes... When you take your foot off the gas, it rumbles and lets everyone around you
know it.
3) The speed... So FAST!
4) The looks... What more can you say here. The Viper is so rare that EVERYONE is looking at you and hanging out
the window at stop lights to comment on how cool the car is.
5) The feel... When you drive this beast, you have do it with respect. I have never raced the car, but I can only
imagine that it would corner and scream down the straight away with a vengeance.

All the INFO:
The 2003 Dodge Viper SRT-10 brought about a change in the already legendary muscle car, a change that seems almost
universally to be for the better. First thing's first. The 2003 Dodge Viper has an 8.3-liter engine, .3 liters
bigger than previous years, which has a maximum horsepower output of 500. Another major, and much appreciated,
change in the 2003
Dodge Viper SRT-10 is the convertible roof. This one is actually easy to operate!
All in all, over 100 changes were made by Dodge engineers in the redesigned 2003 Dodge Viper. Inside, the Viper is
much more comfortable. The seats were redesigned, a dead pedal was brought in as a place to rest your left foot,
and a 6-CD changer was included so you don't have to waste valuable time looking through your case mid-journey. The
gas mileage is still around 12/24 mpg city/highway, but that's become fairly standard for the Viper family.
Owners of the 2003 Dodge Viper SRT-10 seem to think that it is the best Viper made up to that year. For the most
part, owners are happy with all of the changes, especially the 50 extra horsepower and the convenient convertible
roof. Despite being redesigned, the 2003 Dodge Viper still keeps its position as one of the best muscle cars on the
market.

Chop the top of your new Dodge Viper for $35,000
Mon, 21 Jul 2014We have good news, and we have bad news. First, the good: It's now possible to get a brand-new Dodge Viper roadster, which is nice, considering we're in the dead of summer and many of us like wind-in-the-hair motoring. Now, the bad: This is not a factory option from the automaker, instead coming courtesy of an aftermarket company called Prefix Performance, and that means it's going to cost you some serious coin.
Called Medusa, this drop-top Viper was created without the knowledge or consent of Dodge, but that's probably fine because Prefix works with the automaker already for the final preparation of the American supercar, including paint. According to the company, the current, fifth-gen Viper was built with a convertible version in mind, so no chassis strengthening is required. From the looks of the somewhat grainy photos available, the conversion appears of very high quality.
Want one? Well, that means you're going to need to procure a Viper - Prefix has 10 units ready for transformation as it stands - and that's going to cost at the very least $102,485. Then, you'll need to write a check for an additional $35,000 for Prefix to surgically remove the car's roof. Thing is, for that kind of cash, a prospective owner could buy, among other very nice options, a Viper hardtop and a loaded Miata, or a Corvette Stingray convertible and several pockets full of change. Or, perhaps a new Viper hardtop and a used, first-gen Viper convertible?
NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Chrysler 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.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
