Vehicle Description
1996 Dodge Viper GTS - 15k Miles - 8.0L V10 - Viper Blue - First
Year of the GTS For a certain generation of folks out there, the
Dodge Viper may have been one of the first scale model kits that
was completed as a youngster. Many even remember when the Viper was
initially unveiled, appearing as a concept car for the North
American International Auto Show in 1989. The Dodge Viper took the
automotive industry by storm, the radical design included the long
hood, large scoops on each side, side pipes, and those unmistakable
three spoke wheels. Shortly after the display, the Viper was
directed to become a full-on production vehicle. Although it looked
extremely similar to the first generation Viper, the second
generation of the Viper (codenamed SR II) was introduced in 1996.
As part of this new generation, Dodge debuted a new coupe version
called the Viper GTS. Offered here is a 1996 Dodge Viper GTS that
is presented in the iconic blue color, appropriately named Viper
Blue, and only offered for the GTS models. With muscular styling
that seems to defy time, this performance vehicle is as menacing as
the Viper it is named after. The early Viper lineup has aged well,
and is still a car that draws lots of attention. This car is no
different, the exterior metallic paint shows well with deep gloss
and rich color. The paint is accented perfectly with chrome wheels,
and a white stripe package. Under the forward-canting hood is a
powerhouse 8.0L V10 engine that is built for pure performance.
Paired with a manual transmission, it's easy to feel the raw power
that the engine produces. The engine bay is tidy, with the red
intake manifold and red Viper script valve covers are the focal
point. The black interior shows as well-kept as the exterior and
includes many luxuries that were just that, luxuries in such a
performance vehicle. These items include power windows, power
locks, and stereo with CD. The rather spartan, or should we say
functional interior shows really well. Leather seats, three spoke
steering wheel, simple white face gauges, and a leather shifter
close at hand are just a few highlights. Included in the sale are
original owner's manual and service booklet. If you are in the
generation of folks that has a strong memory of the Viper first
being shown, and on the hunt for a Viper of your own, this is a car
for you to seriously consider. Don't let this one slither away.
