Up for sale is my 2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe, with 5667 miles. While I've only owned this Viper since March (2280 miles), I've invested a lot of time, effort and resources into this car. This is my fourth SRT-10 Viper, and was to be the car I held onto for a long time, as witnessed by the extensive modifications listed below. But, sometimes fate steps in and requires a new focus and dedication to family, so my dream Viper build has to be sold just as quickly as I bought it.

This car has a presence! The first thing you'll notice is the custom paint. After owning three previous Vipers, I really wanted something that would stand out from the crowd...even if the crowd is all Vipers! It's 2013 BMW Fire Orange, pulled straight from the Lime Rock Park Edition M3s. It's a true competition orange, lacking any pearl or metallic elements. It's a bold, robust and bright orange that looks incredible in every light. It's also a shade of orange never offered on the 2003-2010 Vipers, so there will be little confusion that you are in a special car! While the car was being repainted, I decided to paint match the factory red brake calipers and red valve covers Fire Orange. I felt that the OEM red would clash with Fire Orange, so I had them colormatched to match perfectly. The valve cover letters were also polished and then clearcoated to ensure easy cleaning and detailing in the future. The brake calipers are the same way, with new black Viper decals to tie it all in. Lastly, I painted the lower section of the rear fascia satin black. This section is normally only painted on the factory striped cars, but I really think it completes the look on the rear even without stripes.

The most important appearance changes you can make to any car are wheels and stance. This Viper has both addressed, and really sets its apart from other Vipers. The wheels are 19x10 and 20x12 Forgestar F14s, finished in their Brushed Titanium finish. The tires are Toyo Proxes T1-R in 275/35R19 and 345/25R20 sizes. I've ran Michelins, Pirellis and Nittos over the years on my previous Vipers, and I really feel like these tires hook up the best on the street. Thankfully, I've never had to drive on them in the rain yet, so I can't comment on that. Hiding in plain sight behind the Forgestars are a set of drilled/slotted brake rotors to help improve the boring look of the stock rotors. I've swapped the factory shocks with BC Racing Coilovers to improve the stance and handling. These coilovers ride terrific, and while it's certainly firmer than stock, it's never jarring or unpredictable. Bringing the ride height down, coupled with the improved aftermarket wheel offsets, really create a dramatic look cruising down the street, or showing off at your local cruise-in.

Ok...now onto the fun stuff! Nearly every single aftermarket and Mopar Performance accessory is already installed on this car! Starting with the Mopar Performance "Venom" Engine Controller, this ECU is a learning unit and will respond and adjust timing and fuel in real time as modifications are installed. In addition to eliminating all potential check engine light issues associated with performance modifications, it improves the drive-by-wire throttle feel and elminates the dreaded skip-shift feature. It also means you won't have to dyno tune the car anytime an additional modification is added. A K&N filter element has been installed, as well as smooth intake tubes that feed into the 2013 Viper Intake Manifold. This intake manifold has been proven to increase horsepower by as much as 25rwhp, as well as dissipate heat much better than the OEM aluminum manifold. Exhausting all this extra air is crucial, so high flow catalytic convertors were installed as well as the most desirable/expensive catback for a Viper, the Corsa 3" system. When you have the side exhaust pipes exiting just a few feet from your ears, drone management is ultra important. The Corsa is the best in the business, and allows you a quiet cabin while cruising and mildly accelerating. With that said, it really starts to scream in the upper RPMs! The weak engine and transmission mounts that tear as early as 10k miles have been replaced with much more rigid mounts from Woodhouse Performance. The last engine related component installed is an underdrive pulley for a few more horsepower.

The remaining appearance modifications are light, as this is usually an area I concentrate on once the other areas are addressed. 15% window tint on the side and rear windows has been installed, as well as Lloyds floor mats and Mopar Accessories Stainless Steel door sill panels. A MGW short shifter has also been installed, which gets rid of that ridiculously tall OEM shifter.

I've just changed the oil within 100 miles (factory SRT Filter and Mobil 1 Oil) and had a four wheel alignment performed. A new battery has been installed, as well as the K&N air filter listed above. It seems minor, but when they cost nearly $100/pair, it's worth mentioning...new wiper blades too!

The car was involved in an accident in October 2013 and sustained passenger side rear damage. Insurance deemed it a total loss (due to deer avoidance) and paid the owner for the car, then sent the car to the insurance auction. It was purchased by a close friend of mine in Mississippi (who rebuilds Vipers), who I then bought it from in March upon repair. It now has a Maryland title and is completely clear and clean without any salvage reference (although eBay is making me list it as such) . Should you need to, it is much easier to secure a loan from most banks and credit unions for the full loan value with a clean title. The damage was so light that the only body parts that were replaced were the passenger side rear fender and the rear fascia. After adjusting the ride height one last time, I had the car realigned last week by my local alignment shop (picture included) and the owner assured me it was absolutely perfect. There was never any inner structure damage to the rear tub, telling of just how light the damage was. It was more of a concrete rail swipe than an actual impact.

This Viper will provide you with many trouble free years and mileage. I bought it with 2280 miles, and have already had it through seven states and three 500+ mile trips up to its current mileage of 5667! While gas mileage isn't the most important aspect of owning a Viper, its worth noting I've gotten 22mpg on a few long distance trips (17mpg average). It's in great shape, sits perfect, and will look incredible from my garage to yours. It's impossible not to smile putting the pedal down on ~640 naturally aspirated horsepower, cruising down the highway with the windows down listening to the Corsa exhaust. It's an absolutely perfect toy car to start with, or add to, your collection.

Old vs. New: 2014 SRT Viper takes on upgraded 16-year-old Dodge Viper

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

It's easy to play the "Would you rather have a New X or an Old Y with a bunch of upgrades?" game more often than we care to admit, but the crew at Car and Driver have taken bench racing to the next level with their latest video. In it, the magazine pits a brand-new 2014 SRT Viper against a highly modified 1997 Dodge Viper GTS. There are 16 years between the time this particular GTS rolled off the production line and when the new car bowed, but that doesn't mean the old snake's owners have been sitting on their hands.
Thanks to a spate of modifications, the GTS offers up a better power to weight ratio than the new machine, but is that enough to overcome the technological leap forward represented by the 2014 Viper? We won't spoil it for you. You'll just have to check out the full clip below for yourself.

Dodge Dart getting hatchback variant... sort of

Thu, 25 Apr 2013

In other parts of the world, Fiat builds and sells a version of the Dodge Dart called the Viaggio, and it appears that in addition to the current sedan bodystyle, a new hatchback version of the car is also in the works. Autocar says that the general manager for China's Guangzhou-Fiat joint venture, John Burton, has confirmed that a new Viaggio hatchback will be revealed by the end of this year before it goes on sale in early 2014.
The Viaggio will soon be joined by the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which in China will be called the Liberty Light, at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant. While the idea of a Dodge Dart hatchback might be enough to enable most of us to forget about the Dodge Caliber, a North American variant doesn't appear to be in the cards. We reached out to Chrysler PR boss Rick Deneau, and he offered a succinct: "No plans at this time."

Hero gets his truck back better than new thanks to community support [w/video]

Sun, 29 Jun 2014

You ever hear a story and start cringing before you hear the end because you know how it's going to turn out? That could very well have been the case with the story from a few weeks ago in West Valley City, Utah, where a 14-year-old kid stole his grandfather's Hyundai Veloster and took it for a joyride - through a park full of children. But instead it turned into a heart-warming tale of heroism and a community banding together to do what's right... and then some.
Bryson Rowley was that hero who identified the danger and, rather than sit idly by and watch the joyrider potentially run over a child, got into his truck and drove it into the menacing runaway hatchback. The collision caused some $7,500 to his 2008 Dodge Ram 2500, but instead of getting stuck with the bill - one which his insurance may very well have refused to pay since the crash was, technically speaking, intentional - his community pitched in a helping hand.
Bryan Ellison, who owns West Valley Carstar with his brother, saw the news on television and wanted to help. So he brought Rowley a rental car, picked up his truck and brought it back to his auto repair shop. People from around the community donated parts, and when all was said and done, some $15,000 of work and upgrades were performed on the Ram that was returned to an overwhelmed Bryson Rowley better than new. Watch the video below for the full story.
