Step back into the golden era of American performance with this
museum-quality 1996 Dodge Viper GTS Coupe. Finished in the iconic
Viper Blue Pearl with Stone White Racing Stripes, this GTS is the
definitive "poster car" for a generation of enthusiasts. With just
6,000 original miles, this example represents a rare opportunity to
own a virtually new version of the car that redefined the American
supercar. The 1996 GTS was the first year Dodge offered a
fixed-roof "Double Bubble" coupe, and it remains the most
sought-after body style in Viper history. The Viper Blue Pearl
paint is in exceptional condition, retaining its deep, metallic
luster and factory-fresh finish. The signature white stripes are
perfectly aligned, flowing over the hood, roof, and rear deck. This
late production 1996 vehicle sits on its original 17-inch
high-polish 5-spoke wheels, which remain free of curb rash or
oxidation. The glass, trim, and light lenses all appear as they did
on the showroom floor in 1996. Inside, the cockpit is a masterclass
in focused performance. The black leather bucket seats show
virtually zero bolster wear, consistent with the ultra-low
6,000-mile odometer reading. Under the front-hinged clamshell hood
lies the legendary 8.0L V10 engine, producing a massive 450
horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque. The 1996 GTS is the "Holy
Grail" for Viper collectors. Not only was it the first year of the
coupe, but it introduced significant improvements over the RT/10,
including power windows, door handles, and a stiffer chassis.
Finding a first-year GTS in the legendary Blue and White launch
colors with such low mileage is becoming increasingly difficult.
This vehicle comes complete with its original owner's manuals, two
sets of keys, and a clean vehicle history report confirming the
mileage and accident-free history. Inspections are welcomed and
highly encouraged. A 5% deposit holds the vehicle for seven days,
pending final payment. Front Air Conditioning, Shift Knob Trim -
