A tip I got from a mechanic when I was looking at a Viper for a friend: If you are looking at buying a Viper, make sure you inspect it on a lift for any frame damage. They are very easy to wreck so many do and then they either aren't fixed correctly or they were damaged in a way that just cannot be repaired correctly. If there's any frame damage, even that's been fixed, it will likely handle even worse than it did when new.
