New Toy

smcosta90 · 11-09-2007, 02:36 PM

Hello,

I just bought my first viper a couple weeks ago. There are not enough words to describe how much I love the car.

I was wondering, does anyone know any good Viper techs in Northern MA,NH,Southern ME area? I have heard of Steve Heitz (Heitz Automotive), but only a rec from one person. I was wondering if anyone else has experience with him and if he does warranty work as well. I've talked to Chuck Tator a couple times but his shop is at least 4 hours from my place and I was hoping to find someone closer.

My new toy.

Thoughts on gloss black rims, probably forgelines?

My other toy. My dad's really but only I drive it. It gets the same reaction as the Viper only it can't do over 35mph.

Great car and nice tank! Enjoy Viper ownership, it's a ton of fun!

I don't know a tech nearby, but I'm sure others do.

Regards,
Aaron

I'm sure Jeff would be delighted if you sent him a quick PM to introduce yourself!! Well, as far as US...we're about done with cruising for the season (we're Albany, NY)...we can get the BEAST out on Sundays for some driving, but that's only around here...would have to be events probably Spring/Summer...hopefully TatorToga if that's still gonna happen in May next year? (In Saratoga Springs, NY--up the Northway, I-87 off I-87/I-90 Thruway)
I'm sure you'll get more people from your surrounding area for upcoming drives?

Yea...probably not this year though. Pretty much everyone has them put up for winter. No salt on the roads yet but its too darn cold to drive with the top off.

I hear ya...though we DO drive with the top up, gotta get as much driving in as we can..and yes, it IS rather cold...40's...but that's never stopped us...just gotta be more careful with the runflats and cold roads. Enjoy the weekend~~~~juli
