488ci OHV V-10 Engine Electronic Fuel Injection 450bhp at 4,600rpm 6-Speed Manual Transmission 4-Wheel Independent Suspension 4-Wheel Disc Brakes *One owner from new *Well preserved *Classic Viper GTS blue with white stripes *First Production year of the 2nd generation Viper THE DODGE VIPER 1996 marked a great leap forward in the evolution of America's unbridled super car. The GTS model featured all new closed coupe bodywork. The double bubble roof and fastback design greatly called back to the sports cars of the past and all together completed an attractive, yet aggressive package. Beyond the updated exterior, it was a top to bottom re-engineering of the mechanicals. Less than 10% of the components were carried over from the RT/10 roadster, with some of the highlights including an uprated motor to 450hp, aluminum suspension components, greatly increased structural rigidity and a 60lbs decrease in weight over the previous model. This allowed for even more impressive performance figures in both handling, acceleration, and top speed thanks to an improved aerodynamic efficiency. Perhaps the most important developments provided by the fixed roof was a dramatic increase in usability and creature comforts. The addition of power windows, door locks, and air conditioning all contributed to fleshing out the Viper as more of an actual car rather than a weekend toy. The introduction of airbags provided more piece of mind to occupants as well. Overall, the second-generation Viper retains many of the best qualities from the first but improved on nearly every other metric. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED The Viper GTS presented here is a wonderful one owner vehicle from new originally purchased in the grand state of Illinois in the winter months of 1997. The car was finished assembly at factory in December of 1996 and was finished the classic Viper GTS Blue with white stripes over a black leather interior. Over the one owner's 20 years of ownership, 2,978 have rolled under the vehicle's wide tires. With the apparent low mileage, the vehicle presents well, only showing minor signs of wear inside and out. These early Vipers offer both handsome looks and one the most exhilarating driving experiences one can find in a street legal road car. These are truly one of the great modern American collectibles.
