Celebrity (Famous) Viper Owners

[Obsidian]

I was just reading an article about Hulk Hogan's son, and was wondering who all the celebrity's and other famous/in-famous people that own(ed) a Viper are.

1. Nick Bollea (Hulk Hogan's kid).
2. Jon Bon Jovi (Don't know if he still has it)
3. Chris Farley (Goes on sale every 3 months on ebay)
4. Chuck Norris (may be a rumor, but supposidly he round house kicked it and it bit him back - now that takes balls, even for a car).

Jenna Jameson had an '96 RT10. Surprisingly, it didn't have a blower.

[Gus Strakes]

Jay Leno
Reba (used to be, don't know if she still is)
Kelsey Grammer (totaled his)
I know there's more, I just need to think about it.

What celebs own Vipers?

While I was doing the search for this thread, I came across the YETI thread. Arguably, the biggest celeb of all-time to own a Viper. For those of you who don't know him, do a search for "Yeti". RIP big guy....

1. Hulk Hogan had an '06 black/silver coupe built for himself that was on Ebay for a long time. He apparently didn't take delivery but the windown sticker showed: BUILT FOR HULK HOGAN.

2. In November, I sold FE GTS #357 that I purchased directly from Joe Perry of Aerosmith. Had photos of him w/ car, signed docs, original title with his name/address and back stage concert tix. Have since purchased another non-celeb owned mint FE GTS *800 miles...

Must have been a recent purchase because I didn't see it in his MTV Cribs episode I don't know if that dude from the band formerly known as NSYNC (couldn't resist giving it a funny twist, lol) still has his red RT/10 he got when doing their clip for Bye Bye Bye)?

Leno still has his 96 GTS B/W

[97GTS]

I think Bon Jovi's sold for some kind of charity or something about a year ago. It was on e-bay. Black GTS I think. Don't know the year but I'm bettin it was between 96 and '02

Jon has a Sapphire Blue GTS the last I saw, he did have a black GTS.
YouTube - Jon Bon Jovi y su Dodge Viper GTS

Jay Leno has 2 vipers, 96' GTS and a 93' black RT/10. The RT/10 was given to him by NBC.
Interesting post from Jay on his message board:
"No, I don't have the first Viper or the first Prowler. I thought I had the first black Viper, a 93 model, but Tom Gale actually got that one. And I have a very early 96 Viper Coupe. But, no, I don't have the first of either of those cars. Prowler should've had a V8!"

A few Nascar drivers have vipers (Kasey Kahne, Kurt Busch, etc...)


NJ native, Ray Evernham, recevied a 96' GTS as a gift from Rick Hendrick when Jeff and Ray won their first cup championship. I think he has one more Viper, a Prowler and several Motorcycles. By the sounds of it, Ray's GTS isn't stock.

"I had the Car of Tomorrow before it was the Car of Tomorrow," Evernham said as he looked at the wing on the Viper.


Chad Pennington of the Jets has a steel gray GTS if I remember.

I never, never got around to asking Keith Urban if he has one, yet he has a sapphire RT/10 in "Where the Blacktop Ends". I met him along time ago, awesome guitarist.

I watched an interview with him on TV along time ago, and he said it wasnt his although he would have loved to keep it.

Can't remember his name, but he plays defense for the Houston Texans. He has a Hennessey Viper.
