Is there any other company that makes Viper Replicas, except Fiero Factory and Graciano Designs?

I own a 97 GTS Real Viper. I have seen several kit Vipers and NEVER seen one that wasnt terrible. If one fooled me I wouldnt have known it though would I?

i know this was about a viper replica...but i looked at the site that yak posted...and its funny that their f282 model (which is the f355 replica) pictures are the same ones that are of an ad listed here for sale. why is it there are so many people using others photos as their own? are there that many shady people in this business? geeeeezz

Haha. That site is using some of my pictures too. The ones on the Diabolic page. I just bought the molds for that kit, I guess there's a chance they are using the pictures with permission from the previous owner but I doubt it.

yea you are right. its not only about 355. the other car pics. are also not their own. for example te venom, prowler pics. are from Fiero Factory. And the diabolic is from uh... cant remember now but i've seen those pictures several times. they belongs to some other companies.so what the hell is that supposed to mean? Are they making the reproduction of a reproduction? or trying to make some easy money? oh boy! swindlers eveywhere...

The diabolic pics where taken from Exotic Rebodies. They are the ones I bought the molds from. The countach pics are stolen too. Some are from Exotic Illusions. The one with 3 turnkeys lined up is from another site I visited recently.

Returning to the subject, anyone knows about a Viper GTS replica? I can find only RT/10 and more RT/10, no GTS.

And another thing. I believe all of you guys have seen the new Viper SRT-10. I think Viper repicas can de modified to look like the new SRT-10. It seems not so difficult. But what do you think is better for this? a GTS or a RT/10 replica?

sorry about that sidebar i started. but on your topic, i've been trying to do a lot of research on kit cars and have been to a lot of sites and to my knowledge i dont think there is a gts replica yet. i did call that one in spain and they are thinking about trying to make a gts but not yet. they are looking for someone to be the guinea pig.

okay i did see that one but i didnt consider it a gts. no offense to the person who has posted that ad ih he reads this. that kit to me looks like a modified rt10 kit. look at the rear window. its still the stock corvette with either pain or a vinyl sticker applied to it to change the lines. the hood doesnt have a intake scoop or the heat vents as a gts would. just my opinion.

I agree with you. When I saw that GTS I realized something wasn´t right, but wasn´t sure what was it. Now I now.

The same you said, no offense with the person who posted that, but it needs a little more work.

By the way, if you did call that Spanish company, did you asked for the 550 Maranello and the Diablo GT? I want to build a car with front engine. My first idea was a 69 ´vette (no kits), then the 67 ´vette (company has bad reputation), then a 67 Shelby GT-500 (all of you know about this, I guess). Then I change my mind into a modern car. The first of course, the Jaguar XKR, then a Aston DB7, Aston Vanquish (neither of them exist) and finally a Viper. RT/10 was the only thing I found (and didn´t like that much). Then a ******* 550 was my project (I would prefer Barchetta Pininfarina, but doesn´t exist).

I think I will take a RT/10, but I would love a SRT-10. Modifying a RT/10 replica to became a SRT-10 is my goal, but it seems difficult.

i did call autoreplica 2000...well i had a friend call cause he speaks spanish...we asked what they were currently making and the list was pretty basic but they said that they had made one or two 550s and a 456gt but its based on a jag so its quite expensive. like i said earlier they are looing for guinea pigs to try other cars but i would expect that costs would be high again.

By the way, have anyone seen the Vipers from Fiero Factory and Graciano Designs in person? I´m interested in the Fiero Factory one, but I want to know if it looks like a Viper or not.

Thanks

I like that GTS. Anyway, There are some wrong things (lights, missing hood scoop, the design behind the door and the rear windshield...), but it´s nice. Only one thing... Where can I buy this? ´cause there is no link or anything, or it´s just one of a kind?
