Today, performance cars have many safety systems and electronic nannies to keep occupants safe during pedal-to-the-metal driving sessions. But during the 1990s, the Dodge Viper was literally a beast with no leash. Produced from 1991 to 2017 under five generations, the Viper has become synonymous with skilled driving. This ferocious car was envisioned as a distant successor to the Shelby Cobra. Interestingly, Lamborghini, which Chrysler Corporation owned then, helped design the V10 engine used in the first Dodge Viper. The second-generation Dodge Viper was produced from 1996 to 2002 and was created in GTS and RT/10 forms. Up for grabs is a 1997 Dodge Viper GTS with 25,968 miles on the odometer. Some of the extras on the Viper include an outstanding interior, 2 sets of wheels and tires, upgraded and installed Borla Exhaust (also comes with the original exhaust), a completely original and un-modified engine, Viper shop manual, original sticker, two sets of keys, and the owners manual.
The hallmark of Dodge Viper is its twin racing stripes which run down the entire length of the car. This particular 1997 Dodge Viper GTS is finished in the classic Viper Blue paint with dual racing stripes in white. The Viper GTS is built from a tubular space frame with a center structure for reduced weight, while the body features composite panels with fiber-reinforced skin. The front fascia features a long sloping hood with an air inlet, while lower, you’ll find a massive air dam to suck in air. This particular Viper sits on a set of CCW 5-spoke forged wheels finished in chrome that accept more commonly manufactured 285/30ZR19 in the front and 325/30ZR19 in the rear. The original Viper wheels are also also included if you prefer the more original look. The rear is host to center-located dual chrome-tipped tailpipes. The interior is one of the cleanest you will find in a 1997 Viper with almost none of the typical side-bolster seat wear that you will see on other vipers for sale. The floors are host to black floor mats with the Viper logo and script stitched in white. Behind the 3-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel can be seen the speedometer and the tachometer, while the top of the center console is host to a set of auxiliary gauges. This Viper also retained its original Premium Alpine stereo with CD.
This beast of a 1997 Dodge Viper GTS comes with a completely original and un-modified 8.0L Viper V10 engine coupled with a glorious 6-speed manual transmission. The exhaust is an aftermarket Borla Cat Back system that is the perfect tune for this V10 engine. The Viper also comes with the original cat back exhaust from Dodge, making it possible to go 100% original if so desired. It can churn out 415hp of raw power to the rear wheels. 0-60 mph is clocked in at 4.3 seconds. It includes 4-wheel independent suspension, coil-over shock designs, limited slip differential, and power-assisted rack & pinion steering. The seller also reports that the tires are like new, battery has been replaced in last 30 days, and a recent oil change has been completed.
