The 2008 Dodge Viper for buyers
No 2008 Dodge Viper is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2008 Dodge Viper is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Before you sign for the Viper
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Under the hood
Its 8.4L 10-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 44 litres, from its 14.7 L/100 km rating. That works out to about $25.73 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the Viper
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Size and space
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.
Drive it on your own roads
Try the Viper on your commute, then decide. A week with the Viper answers more than any brochure. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Picking a year and a trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $25.73 in fuel.
Questions first?
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
