Some classic cars are subtle and restrained, while others have no idea what either of those words means. The Dodge Viper fits neatly into the second category as a brash sports car providing stunning performance. This 2001 Viper RT/10 takes that impression to the highest level, carrying the hallmarks of a vehicle that has always been treated respectfully. It is a low-mile survivor needing nothing but a new home. The seller has listed the Dodge here on eBay in Miami Beach, Florida. Bidding currently sits at $30,000 in a No Reserve auction.

If you were a celebrity wishing to travel incognito, your first choice probably wouldn’t be a Viper. This is especially true if the car is finished in the Race Yellow gracing this classic’s exterior. It is a loud, proud color and one of only three shades offered to buyers in 2001. The seller describes the vehicle’s condition as “like new,” and the supplied photos support that claim. The paint shines beautifully, reflecting its surroundings like a mirror. There are no visible flaws or defects and no evidence of plastic deterioration. The rear wing is a $5,000 addition fitted by the previous owner, heightening the Viper’s aggressive styling. The seller states that this beauty has only seen rain twice throughout its life and has been garage-kept since Day One. Therefore, its spotless underside and lack of rust is unsurprising. This Viper currently wears its factory hardtop, with the soft-top unused and still wrapped in its original plastic. The wheels are spotless, and the glass is crystal clear.

Viper interiors are always purposeful, with a bank of white-faced gauges, a stubby shifter, and body-hugging seats. This car is no exception, and its condition is as impressive as the exterior. The leather-wrapped seats show no wear, even on the prone outer edges. The console and dash are spotless, and factory floor mats protect the carpet. There are no aftermarket additions, and the factory features work as they should. The new owner receives a pair of airbags, ice-cold air conditioning, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, a tilt wheel, and an AM/FM radio/CD player.

Dodge pushed out the boat with the Viper, selecting an engine that is the car’s defining feature. Who needs a V8 when there is room under the hood for a V10? This powerplant is genuinely special, producing 450hp and 490 ft/lbs of torque. Both figures sound relatively modest in a modern context, but the motor made the Viper what some believe to be a ground-bound jet. The ¼-mile journey will take 12.3 seconds, while a brave driver willing to keep the pedal to the metal will see the needle nudge 168mph. This classic is in excellent mechanical health and has a genuine 20,000 miles on the clock. It isn’t a garage queen because the seller has logged 3,000 of those miles in the last year. The Viper is a turnkey proposition that the new owner could drive home without a care in the world.

The Dodge Viper RT/10 doesn’t appeal to everyone, but if you’ve reached this point in the article, it must tick some boxes for you. The company only produced 840 examples of the RT/10 Convertible in 2001, making these relatively rare vehicles. I would expect the bidding to top $40,000 before the hammer falls, although there are never certainties in the classic market. It could climb significantly higher, or the bidding could stall anytime. The No Reserve aspect of the auction means it is guaranteed that a new home will be found in a few days. Are you tempted to make it yours?
