"Production end
Major automotive media outlets have speculated the Viper will be discontinued after the 2011 model year[13] and that Chrysler will close Conner Avenue Assembly.[14] Though Chrysler had not yet officially commented on the issue, the 25,000th Viper is owned by Kurt Busch and the milestone was commemorated by Bob Nardelli, Chrysler LLC Chairman, in a ceremony at the Conner plant in March 2008.[15]

On 29th of December 2008 Dodge has pulled the plug on the Viper sports car, unless a buyer for that model can be found. "

I've heard that Viper has already been sold, just not announced. Bought by an American company.

Orders are being taken for 09's again, even SSG ACR & Race Yellow >r

Well that gives on cause to celebrate, with some concern about maintaining production standards, quality, parts etc.  What happens to our current warranties?

I recently bought a Max Care extended warranty for my 06...

I figured if it wasn't honored by the new owner then I'd just take it up with AMEX.
I got such a smokin deal on the warranty, it was kinda hard to say no  ^2
