480 ORIGINAL ACTUAL MILES!!! TWO-OWNER CAR
The 1996 Dodge Viper brought forth some changes for the first generation, including more power! At the heart of the snake is a potent 8.0L V10 that pushes out 450hp. This power is good enough for a 0-60 time of 4.0 seconds and a quarter mile in 12.2 seconds at a trap speed of 118mph. Keep your heart pumping as you row the smooth-shifting 6-speed and listen to those 10 cylinders sing in harmony. Phase II models were upgraded with improved suspension and reduced braking distances.
The exterior is finished in the original Viper GTS Blue (code PBE), striped with white lines, creating the iconic color combination we all know and love. Maintaining originality throughout, the OEM alloys are wrapped with Michelin Pilot SX tires, sized 275/40ZR17 upfront and monster 335/35ZR17s putting that 8.0L powerhouse to the road.
Slide into the interior, and the collector-quality grade continues. The leather bucket seats wrap around you, while the white-faced gauges keep an eye on things. Air conditioning comes standard in the 1996 Dodge Viper GTS, as do power windows, power door locks, airbags, and adjustable foot pedals for both taller and shorter drivers.
With a limited production of 1,166 coupes in 1996, this collector-grade car has a mere 480 ACTUAL MILES and a clean CarFax. The original owner’s manual, assorted books, receipts, and two keys and remotes are included.
The Dodge Viper came from the minds of Lee Iacocca and Carroll Shelby, who had a relationship stretching back to the 60s at Ford. Following their success with turbocharging front-drive Mopars in the 80s, and at the suggestion of Chrysler exec and world-class car nut Bob Lutz, Chrysler set out to build a Shelby Cobra for the modern era: two seats, giant engine, and precious little else, while still conforming to federal regulations. It was a back-to-basics sports car in an era when technology was seen as a buffer between the driver and driving experience.
Dodge’s first Viper, sold from 1991-95, was called Viper RT/10. Its all-aluminum 8.0-liter V-10 offered power (400hp!), torque (450 lb-ft!), and displacement (488 cubic inches!) not seen from a factory-built car since the 70s. Early Vipers included leather-trimmed, manually adjustable bucket seats, large-diameter alloy wheels, and an AM/FM stereo cassette player with a clock. Yet, it lacked airbags, air conditioning, roll-up windows, and external door handles. Sidepipes let out the exhaust just ahead of the rear wheels.
Viper’s first facelift came in 1996 when the exhaust was routed out the back. Dodge added a new model: the Viper GTS coupe, the Daytona Coupe to the original open Viper’s Cobra. Along with the aero-slick top, the GTS came with standard airbags, air conditioning, power windows, power locks, and a 450hp rating. The RT/10 gained the GTS equipment levels in 1997.

I assume that “actual miles” is on the title. Correct? Thank you.
The current title was issued in 2023, the mileage is not recorded a title if the vehicle is more than ten years old. Autocheck does show the mileage in May 2023 at 465.
