I feel that this car is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. And it only has 9k original miles. I purchased this car back in Jan. 2010 to sell at out dealership. Once I drove it, I fell in love with it and decided not to sell it. I have really enjoyed driving this car over the past 2 years. However, I just had my 5th child. My wife thinks the car is way too fast and will not let any of the kids ride with me. I have decided to put my GTS for sale and get something more kid friendly. Dont miss out on the opportunity to own this fantastic car. This car is 100% reliable and I would drive it across country in a heartbeat. Within the last 12 months, I have replaced the battery, spark plugs, air filter, new brake pads, new heater core and I always run Mobil 1 Synthetic Oil. The clutch feels good and the transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears. There are no leaks that I am aware of. My driveway is always clean where I park the car. I dont know of anything that does not work. The car has no modifications that I am aware of. I put the newer Viper wheels on the car because I was never a big fan of the OEM wheels on the 97 Viper. However, I still have the original wheels off the car as well. I am very firm on the price of the car with the newer wheels on it. If somebody would prefer to have the original wheels, I will keep the newer wheels and sell the car for $37k. I will not include both sets of wheels for my asking price. This car is Carfax Certified. The Carfax vehicle history report shows the mileage as accurate with absolutely no accidents reported. The title is 100% clean. This is a one owner car. I am a dealer so technicallyI dont count. The car just passed the California state emissions test. The interior is in beautiful condition. The leather seats look fantastic with no rips or tears of any kind. The dash is in great shape and all the gauges seem to function properly. There are a couple very light scratches on the dash. I had the stereo replaced and the radio bezel rubbed against the dash. There are no check engine light or warning lights on of any kind. The air conditioning blows ice cold and the heater works. The door panels are all in great shape and both power windows work properly. The headliner is in fantastic shape. The radio works as well. I have 2 sets of floor mats. The original ones would move way too easily so I purchased a second set of mats. They stay where they should. I have a handsfree cell phone holder that I use with my iphone. It can easily be removed if you dont have a need for it. The exterior of the car is the desirable blue with white stripes. This is a beautiful car. The paint looks really nice and glossy. There are the typical scratches along the bottom of the front bumper. All the glass is in good shape with no visible cracks. The wheels that are currently on the car are off a newer Viper. The fronts are 18 inch and the rear are 19 inch. The tires are Michelin Pilots. The front tires have a good amount of tread left. The rears are still good but have slightly less tread than the front. The original wheels are available as mentioned earlier. They are stacked in my garage so I was unable to get a photo. I believe they are 17 inch with Michelin Pilots as well. The tread on the original wheels is about 70%. There is a spare tire in the trunk. I have the owners manuals but I accidently got them wet. Still usable. This is an extremely nice car. However it is not a trailor queen. It is not a Brand New 15 year old car. It is a beautiful car in need of a new home. I get numerous compliments every time I take it for a drive. I feel that I have placed a fair price on the car considering the mileage and the upgraded wheels. Please do not send me lowball offers. I will not respond so please dont waste your time. I will try not to put anymore miles on the Viper but I might take it for a drive every now and then. I keep the GTS at my house. You will need to make an appointment prior to coming. I will answer any emails as quickly as possible. There will be a $55 doc fee and a $135 auction services fee added to the winning bid. There is no exceptions.
