Used Dodge Viper for sale near Rockford, IL

vehicle was ready to test drive on arrival, paper work was ready and we were in and out in minimal time

I've owned my 2006 Viper coupe for 5 years now and still absolutely love it !! The car's handling is unbelievable!! I e gone 193 mph and I know it still has more to give.

Ferrari of Palm Beach is my go-to place for buying cars. Tony is an exceptional salesperson and thanks to him, it’s always a fast and fun experience. Dawn in Finance and James in Service are great too.

I had a 1998 Viper RT/10 and I have now a 2001 Viper RT/10. I also had a 2016 C7 Corvette. I sold the corvette and kept the Viper. I enjoy driving the Viper more than I did diving the corvette. I love the looks of it and the raw power. I get a lot more attention driving the Viper than I ever did driving the Corvette. It is a very rare car on the road.

I asked for the detail to polish out few scratches and scuffs, the car was taken back to the detail shop and brought back with little to no change. Either the detail shop did a poor job or nothing at all. While the salesperson was very nice and attentive, he mentioned that even new cars have scratches on them. .y concern was my car not the new cars.

Where do I start? The car is rare! You dont see many in good shape. That’s because ham fisted drivers will crash this car easily. No traction control. This is a true drivers car in every sense of the word. Tough to find parts (especially wheels). Most common parts are easy to find, ie fuel pump, brake parts, tires, oil filters. Interior is minimalist , plastic and light weight ( it’s not a luxury vehicle) but it’s for a purpose. You can remove the interior panels with a few twists of the screwdriver. If you are over 6’ tall , top down driving is the only way to go. Tough to get in and out of the seats without kicking the sill plate. Side pipes will singe your legs if you rub your calf on the sill for too long. Speaking of side pipes, they sound quiet in stock form and the cross over pipe is right under the cockpit. Great for New England fall days, but toasty in the summer. Keep telling yourself this is a race car and not a sports car. I installed a rear camera and gps head unit. Install was easy to run wires . Tough to judge the edges of the car. Give plenty of space when parking so you don’t scuff the wheels. Transmission- The big V 10 motor torque pulses in first and sometimes second gear at slow speeds. Trying to get around in the parking lot is not fun. If you are too heavy on the throttle off the line and you let off for a bit the Viper lurches begging to be driven. I’ve had to pull the clutch in just to re-align the rpm because I am not on a race track ringing the neck out of it. The gears need to be shifted with purpose. It is not a smooth gearbox and very primitive. Shift with authority. The shifter is very long and I will probably install a short throw handle in the near future. The motor- The V 10 is bulletproof and barely works to get you up to speed. You can quick shift from 1st to 4th and still have plenty of torque to get you going. Make sure you have a fresh battery in the car as it does work hard to turn the motor over on first start as the big pistons take a lot to turn. Brakes- The brakes are phenomenal on this car and I mean really phenomenal. The one drawback is they do create an abnormal amount of brake dust which leads to a lot of squeaking at slow speed stops. Your chrome wheels will get dirty relatively quickly. Did I mention that the brakes create an abnormal amount of dust? LOL Exterior- Low ,sleek and sexy. I get compliments everywhere I go. The car has excellent aerodynamics, the top is leakproof, and everything looks and operates as it should. One thing of note, because the body is completely fiberglass, it’s relatively easy to fix. The suspension is dialed in and very sensitive to bump steering. You MUST pay attention when driving. Excellent steering and cornering when the tires are heated up. A couple parting comments. First if you store the car for long periods of time make sure you crack the windows down about 4 inches because if the battery dies you cannot open the door as the window is wedged under the soft top. Second the battery is located in the back left corner of the trunk and it’s relatively easy to get to. Make sure you put a tender on it for the winter if you’re not driving it. Also if this car is driven at any point below 60°, you will not hook up, you’ll just spend tires so be very careful when it comes to cornering and accelerating. The car comes with run flats but rides 100 times better with regular pilot cup tires. Finally, The oil lines tend to leak on these cars, so if you have a choice, replace them with braided lines and you won’t ever have any issues. Remember it’s a race car! Happy Driving

Everyone I interacted with was absolutely lovely and were very helpful! I asked many many questions about the car and all were answered. The process was so fast and easy and I’d recommend all friends and family to shop here for their next car! Huge shoutout to Gladdis for putting in the extra time for me

Best car I have ever owned. Vipers are a beast on the road. Very comfortable once you get in. Not built for the bigger people. 6.3 is the tallest u would suggest.

Easy Dealer to dealer transaction. Have worked with them in the past and will continue to do so. Thanks Leo.

The car is super, plenty of power, great looking car, stands out amongst cars at car shows, turns heads when driving, plenty of attention anywhere you go.

I am beyond pleased and impressed with this dealership. Working with Rami and his team was easy, efficient, and professional. I used my own credit union for my financing and even they said what a pleasure it was working with Rami and Diamond and just how thorough and on top of things they were. I had never shipped a car out of state before and this was also my first Porsche and I’m sure I wasn’t the easiest to deal with at times, not on purpose of course, but just because it was such a new experience. I felt very taken care of and accommodated with everything I needed. Great communication and very fair. I can’t say enough good things! Very very happy and this dealer is top notch with quality of cars also - immaculate cars and care of them. My transport company even commented how nice this dealership is. We will be back for sure ! Thank you!!!

Based on my 2000 GTS An absolute joy to drive. Calm and sedate unless you lose control of your right foot. Then the car has the ability to bite if you're not prepared for what happens next. I would happily daily drive a viper...unless it is raining, things could get a little tense with less available traction!

Felt like they were honest and trustworthy! They were helpful! Very professional and personable and caring!

Amazing experience! I walked onto their lot just to browse & was quickly greeted by their friendly staff! My family & I were devastated from hurricane Milton as we lost both our vehicles & they were understanding of our situation & did everything they could to get us back into a vehicle! Very grateful for their relentless effort & they earned a customer for life! 10 stars if i could! Highly recommend !!!

Effortless power, Power, POWER-VROOOOM! You tap the gas; shift the gears and experience performance few drivers in the world will ever be lucky enough to know. Truly, Truly a remarkable motor car!

They are super helpful beginning to end. Dave busted his butt to make sure I had the car I wanted and made sure I was satisfied with everything. He always asked me for any questions I had and he always had answers for me. He did everything on both ends with not only making sure I got the car but making sure I got approved for a loan to be able to get it. I got the key within just a few weeks. Him and 8-11 motor groups are fantastic. 8-11 actually makes you feel like you matter!

Beautiful vehicle very fast better than your Corvette it gets better looks than a Corvette and you'll get a lot of money when you trade it in

I have to be absolutely honest the response time was quick and sales staff were extremely knowledgeable!!!

Somewhat hard to enter and exit, but isn't that expected from a race car? This car is brutally fast and handles like a go cart. The all leather wrapped interior is stunning and the side gills scream V-10 VIPER. This car attracts attention and is absolutely beautiful. Among the fastest production cars made in the USA. Truly an American Super Car!!

Michael and the crew were absolutely amazing. I bought my daughter a 2016 wrangler from the team and I couldn't be happier. The most personable local dealership around. They helped from A-Z. Financing, securing the car - and we left happier than a chipmunk. Thanks again fellas.

This is the forth Viper roadster I've owned ('1994, 2000, 2003, 2005) and no complaints about any of them. I love the "wow" comments I get when people see the Viper. Corvettes, although great cars also, are a common site everywhere you go. Not true with the Viper. I also love the rear wide track and bodacious rear tires. There may be more comfortable and higher H.P. sports cars, but none as good looking, worry free, cheaper to maintain/repair or fun to drive. I believe the Viper gives you the most bang for your buck.

Responsive however lack of 2 keys on a rare special car not being noted and significant stone chips also not mentioned in the description not great. With those hits no movement on price on an overpriced vehicle no surprise they reached out later offering a lower price. Too late closed on a much nicer specimen for less. One plus $200 dealer fees was excellent and fair.

V10 engine provides more than ample thrust, great six speed transmission, and drop top thrills for mountain roads. A real purpose built speed machine. I will be sad to see it go, not every day you get to see a genuine pilot car.

Sold a couple of cars to these guys! Got a fair deal on both of them and got paid within a few minutes. I continued stalking the website and came across a super clean GLK Diesel! Kemal was easy to deal with and had me out there door very quickly for a cash deal.

I bought my viper a few weeks ago and drove it back from Florida to Texas and never had so much fun doing so. I had always heard about how rough the suspension was and they are not comfortable. What? Maybe if you are 6'3" and 300 lbs. you're not going to be comfortable. Do you really expect it to ride like a cadillac? Would you seriouslly want it to? The viper has an unbelievable amout of torque and if you drive that car and are not smiling the whole time you are either brain dead or you truly know nothing about performance cars and don't appreciate them. I would recommend this car over any other performance car out there for the money it can't be beat......Period

I had never bought a car without kicking the tires before, and I was worried about buying something so expensive without seeing it. Luckily the history was good on the vehicle, but mostly it was the demeanor and communication during initial conversations that put me at ease. Straightforward and no pressure. Great experience from the get go all the way through the arranged delivery.

Although a bit tight to wiggle into, this car is a beast. Not for the meek at heart. How much more power do you need. Flawless finish, paint, interior...body lines..... Not for a snot nosed kid as it will easily kill you. Love the color and everything inside it!

Good people to work with. An easy transition with my tradein. I love the car I purchased from them.

By far the most fun and exhilarating vehicle I've ever owned. Reliable with some quirks, very easy to work on. Not for the novice, this car seriously wants to punish the foolhardy. Drive it to the supermarket for milk and eggs and then hit the highway to destroy most cars.

Andrew and his staff were AWESOME, from the moment I was on the website, to the moment I walked in the door, very honest, straight forward, no high pressure… I’ve looked for weeks to find the car for me, Andrew and his boys made my experience for enjoyable. Could not ask for a better experience.

This car is not for the lighthearted, because It will sit you back in the seat with a rush of excitement form the acceleration and feeling of fear of it's power and performance. It is not an everyday driver and should be respected for what it is. It is designed for a race track and is legal for the road. If you push it to it full potential, you will loose control unless you have the experience of a racing car like this.

Great guys and will return to buy another vehicle in the near future , Tom was awesome straight to the point , didn't try to bs me ,

I own many cars, but my fourth generation Viper is one of the most approachable. The car drives well, had good performance, and unique styling. With loads of mechanical grip with it's massive tires and performance suspension, the car is a blast.

Bought a 2013 Gallardo! Car was in great condition!! Parker was great to deal with and answered all my questions. All transactions were smooth. Will buy again!!

Raw performance, timeless style, and a reasonable price. There are other options out there, but I don?t think any of them truly compare to the Viper!

I've bought three cars from this dealership and every time it has been a spectacular experience. The service department is top notch, too. I'll be a customer for life.

It's a great car, handles amazingly, and does well when having a little bit of fun, and for having a V10, it's very comfortable and reliable

My 2017 Dodge Viper ACR has been an amazing car. I have used it mostly for track days which is where it dominates. The 645 hp V10 launches the car to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and on to a top speed of 177 mph. This is perfect for the track. Warning, this car is not a luxury car. It feels that the shocks are made of twigs and the seats of rocks. The car does look menacing cruising down the road. I'm sad to see that many owners are going to Ferrari or Lamborghini. This is why this car is no longer in production. Do not use this car as a daily driver. There is no highway insulation and very little trunk space. But if you have multiple cars, then you should take this to a track day.
