I am the Dodge dealership getting blacktruck’s headlight switch replaced. I was wondering around the lot being bored. When one of the detail guys pulled up in this. I asked him if I could sit in it, he pulled the keys out and said have at it.

Extremely proud of myself for remembering to watch out for the hot doorsill/exhaust.

Looks really badass in black on black!

I’ve sat in an 03 and an 04

Been driven around in the 03. 400 HP doesn’t sound like much with today’s high end stuff hanging around the 600 mark; however, these things are scary. It feels like it will eat your lunch at any time.

I was honestly more comfortable riding around in 400 hp muscle cars from the 60s.

It’s actually gray, it just looks black in the pictures.

I would love to have a GTS in that body style. They are the best looking in my opinion.

Wow, I had no idea the sills on a Viper were that wide. I thought they only got that wide on vehicles with carbon fiber monocoques.

Yes, I though C4 Corvettes were bad.

The Viper sill is a a whole different level, also knowing that it was hot made it even more challenging.

How much do they want for it

Not sure, I asked the detail guy but he didn’t know. He offered to find a salesman but I didn’t want to waste his time.

No such thing as an 03-04 GTS. The 03-04 was convritble, Gen III, SRT-10.

Has to be wide...exhaust pipes run through the side sills.

They are soooooooooooo nice. Not really that great inside for anyone over 5’10” (hey, thats my size, i’m perfect!) but sooooooooooo damn pretty and nice.

Ya, I am 5’11 and it was a little tight, I think I could make the sacrifice though.

The biggest thing is taller people can’t see out of the windshield lol. My dad sat in a new one (over 6 foot) and was hard to see out of, perfect for me though!

I could see that, I was thinking while I was in it that stoplights could be a bit of a pain in the ass.

It scared the shit out of me in ways other non-stock cars with a lot of power couldn’t.
