I have the Viper 550ESP in Q2... Q1 has whichever Viper was available in 1995 or 1996. The dealers aren't supposed to sell over the counter, but you can find them on the internet sometimes.
They are very reliable. I haven't had one problem with the remote start or the alarm falsing.
From what I understand, our Gov. and higher State officials also use the remote start for security purposes... like someone couldn't put a delay on a bomb
