1997 Dodge Viper GTS

This 1997 Dodge Viper GTS was initially delivered to Crown Dodge of Ventura, California, and now shows just over 6k miles. Finished in Viper Red, the car features a vented hood, a double-bubble roof panel, and an integrated rear lip spoiler. It rides on 17" five-spoke alloy wheels and is powered by an 8.0-liter V10 linked with a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Inside, black leather–trimmed seats are accompanied by a CD stereo, air conditioning, and power windows. Acquired by the selling dealer, this Viper GTS is now offered as part of John Kufleitner's Personal Museum Collection with a window sticker, manufacturer’s literature, a commemorative CD and binder of records, accessories, accident-free Carfax, and a clean Ohio title.

Introduced for the 1996 model year, the Viper GTS coupe featured a double-bubble roof panel and a glass rear hatch along with a vented hood, projector-style headlights, fog lights, an integrated rear lip spoiler, a racing-style fuel-filler cap, and center-exit exhaust outlets. This example left the factory finished in Viper Red and is one of a claimed 1,671 examples produced for the year.

The 17" five-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with 275/40 front and 335/35 rear Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs.

The cabin features bolstered bucket seats upholstered in black leather. Additional equipment includes a CD stereo, air conditioning, dual airbags, adjustable pedals, and power windows.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 200-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline. Auxiliary gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and voltage are mounted atop the center stack. The six-digit odometer shows 6k miles.

The 8.0-liter OHV V10 was factory rated at 450 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque. The oil pan gasket and battery were replaced and the oil was changed in 2024.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec T-56 six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

The window sticker lists delivery to Crown Dodge as well as factory colors, equipment, and a total original MSRP price of $70,000 (Equal to $137,672 in 2024).
