SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 1997 Dodge Viper GTS, showing just 21,973 miles on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in Viper Red over a black leather interior, this example reflects the unmistakable presence that defined the second-generation Viper — wide, low, and unapologetically outrageous.

This car is unmodified and retains its original character, from the louvered hood and polished 17” wheels to the driver-focused cabin anchored by white-faced gauges and the enthusiast-friendly 6-speed manual. Long-term ownership since 2010 and consistent care have helped preserve this Viper’s head-turning vibe.

Power comes from the iconic naturally aspirated V10, delivering massive torque and immediate response through a 6-speed manual, limited-slip diff, and rear-wheel drive. The result is a raw, unfiltered driving experience — the kind of visceral performance that defined the Viper’s reputation and still commands respect today.

The 1997 Dodge Viper GTS represents a defining chapter in Detroit performance — massive displacement, manual transmission, and styling that remains instantly recognizable decades later. 

With low mileage, long-term ownership, and recent servicing, this example offers a well-preserved expression of the direct, mechanical character that made the Viper legend. For collectors and drivers alike, it delivers an experience that is increasingly rare: analog, demanding, and unmistakably American.
