Suzuki7502k · January 15th, 2013, 06:35 PM

Hello all,

Just joined this forum, long time enthusiast. Just sold my vette and looking to get into my first viper. Looking for a Gen III white mamba that is clean and well maintained. Willing to travel and price point is low 40's. If anyone knows of a vehicle fitting my requirements, please let me know.

That said, what should i look for when pirchasing a viper. I will have the vehicle inspected and run a carfax. I realize these a limited production vehicles, where would i find a reputable mechanic to inspect the vehicle?

Thanks in advance.

Amazing car, unfortunately the warden will not approve....

I saw that mamba and seller seems to be local however I feel the car is way overpriced IMO. For 55k, I'd go with a newer, lower mileage hardtop.

Yup, it just came back from underground after some freshening up. Going to put it up for sale in about 2 weeks.

It was originally black, now it's lambo balloon pearl white
