RE: Does any actually OWN a Viper here?
Noredline, do you go to any Viper meetings (VCA, etc.)? I live in Prescott Valley and just recently (3 months ago) came to own a 2001 Red/Silver Striped GTS. Saving a lot of money to send it to Hennessey for some work. Gotta get the cash scratched up first and gotta convince the wife to let me do it second...
I wish I were the man of the house...

I didn't really care for the new Viper SRT-10 convertible's that came out a while ago, but now I'm starting to like them. Yours looks great Blonzz, loving the 5 spoke rims too!

Beautiful SRT. Might I ask which Paxton you are going to boost that brute with? I was actually thinking of putting a Novi 2000 or perhaps 2200 on my own, and I'd like to hear what you plan for yours.
EDIT: I made a few calls to Hennessey over the past few days, and forget them. They want fifty-thousand-god-damned-dollars to bore out and supercharge my GTS, plus an additional twenty thousand for a transmission, and six grand to ship it. For Christ sake, I payed under fifty grand to buy the whole damned car! I think it's rediculous how they can get away with charging Viper owners that much just because they think they have the money...and maybe most of them do. But I, for one, am not completely made out of money. I happened to get a really exceptional deal on my GTS, although even then it was still on the outside edge of my "price bracket". In any event, I probably wont be sending my car off to any major specialty builders any time soon. SVS Performance and Macedo Motorsports are equally insane. If I had 180,000 dollars I would be driving a Lamborghini, not a used Viper...not that I dont love my car, but still...ok, I'm starting to rant now. Time to shut up.
