This 1997 Dodge Viper GTS shows 42,700 miles and has been in North Carolina and Pennsylvania since new. The original owner kept the car until November 2010, and the seller purchased it in August 2016 from the second owner, who was the president of the local Viper club. Powered by an 8.0-liter V10 paired to a 6-speed manual transmission, this example has been modified with an upgraded radiator and coolant hoses, as well as a custom-painted Viper logo on the underside of the hood. The exterior is finished in GTS Blue with white stripes, while the black leather interior remains stock down to the factory radio. Service records are limited to those acquired by the seller, automotive columnist Doug DeMuro, who has created a number of videos about the car that can be seen below. This Viper GTS is now being offered with an accident-free Carfax and a clean Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.

The GTS Blue finish shows well in the provided photos, with noted imperfections including a scuff on the hood, several scrapes under the front bumper, and some slight curb rash to one of the wheels. The seller has provided photos of these issues that can be seen in the gallery below. Some separation of the tailgate glass from the hinges is also reported along with a slight misalignment of the hood and a passenger door that requires a little extra effort to shut.

The car retains its 17″ factory wheels, which are fitted with new Nitto tires up front and a set of Pirelli P-Zeros out back. Detailed photos in the gallery show the rash on one of the wheels.

The unmodified black interior remains well-preserved, with upholstery, carpets, and interior surfaces appearing in good condition.

Deeply bolstered sport seats show well, though there is some light wear to the black leather upholstery visible in photos.

The 8.0-liter V10 produced 450 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque when new, and it sends power to the rear wheels through 6-speed manual transmission. The painted Viper logo on the underside of the hood was added by the previous owner. Though service history is minimal, the car is sold with service records covering the seller’s ownership that show the following maintenance:

New battery

Oil change

Upgraded radiator for improved cooling

New upper and lower radiator hoses

New tires

A passed state safety inspection

The car has been driven approximately 1,200 miles by the seller, who reports an exaggerated rumble at idle and a noticeable whine at higher speeds.

The seller has made a number of videos about this car during his 10 months of ownership. Additional videos can be found on his YouTube page.

Several lift photos have also been supplied and can be viewed in the gallery below.

The clean Carfax confirms three owners from new and shows six service history records.
