Power rose through the years, as did the size of the car&rsquo;s monstrous V10, slowing growing from 8.0 to 8.4 liters. An engine like this would be unthinkable in the modern world for a mainstream carmaker, making pristine Vipers like this all the more special.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2024\/11\/this-is-what-happens-when-you-leave-a-brand-new-dodge-viper-on-top-of-dealer-sign-for-28-years\/\">Brand New Dodge Viper Spent 28 Years On Top Of A Dealer Sign<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What you&rsquo;re looking at is a 2002 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/dodge-viper\/\">Viper<\/a> GTS fitted with the 8.0-liter version of the V10. When new, it delivered 450 hp at 5,200 rpm and 490 lb-ft (664 Nm) of torque at 3,700 rpm. Sure, Mercedes-AMG&rsquo;s current flagship 2.0-liter turbo four has more power, but totally lacks the sheer character and, most notably, sound of the Dodge&rsquo;s V10.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p>This Viper was listed for sale on <a href=\"https:\/\/phoenix.craigslist.org\/evl\/cto\/d\/apache-junction-500-mile-2002-dodge\/7821194244.html\">Craigslist<\/a> (deleted by the time we published this article) in Phoenix, Arizona, with a $100,000 asking price. Beyond it simply being an awesome piece of American performance car history, it&rsquo;s special because it&rsquo;s only been driven 523 miles (841 km). It retains all of the original parts, still has plastic on the seats, and is one of roughly three dozen Vipers built in 2002 with a Cognac leather interior.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2002-Dodge-Viper-GTS-2.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image-block\"> <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<p>                    <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"\" alt=\" Someone Listed A 2002 Dodge Viper With Just 523 Miles For $100,000 On Craigslist\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2002-Dodge-Viper-GTS-2-1024x768.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>        <\/a>  <\/p>\n<p>The seller said they purchased the car from the original owner several years ago, and it has absolutely no scratches or scuffs on it. Given how pristine it looks, you could be excused for thinking it had just rolled out of the factory.<\/p>\n<p>The mighty V10 is mated to a six-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels. The car was being sold with the original window sticker, dealer sales brochure, and manuals. However, the listing didn&rsquo;t provide any details about the car&rsquo;s service history. Sure, it has barely been driven, but it&rsquo;s always important for a buyer to ensure that a car&rsquo;s mechanical components are in tip-top condition irrespective of mileage, price, or brand, even if it&rsquo;s parked in a collection.<\/p>\n<section class=\"type:slideshow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\" src=\"\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\" \/><\/section>\n<p style=\"font-size:17px\"><em>H\/T to <a href=\"https:\/\/jalopnik.com\/craigslist-is-the-last-place-youd-expect-to-see-a-basic-1851748756\">Jalopnik<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<div id=\"bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<div id=\"bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A barely driven Dodge Viper was listed on Craigslist, giving someone the chance to savor its V10.
