It is a new motor its lighter more powerful more economic only similarity is the displacement not sure if its the same bore and stroke but overall its the same
Guys, there's only so many shapes you can make with the body of a car. You're bound to have slight similarities between cars.
Description: And now Chrysler has also just announced that the first production Viper will be auctioned off to benefit the Austin Hatcher Foundation for Pediatric Cancer. Set to take place at the Barrett-Jackson O...

I reckon everyone bookmark this page and when it is sold at auction see who gets closest... I reckon 1.5mil
Ya Rick Hendrick is kinda a dick at the auctions, he thinks it's a sport, but there aren't a lot of auctions in Michigan, so I probably don't know what I'm talking about
I wonder it this will hit near the $1,000,000 mark like the firstCcorvette ZR1 did? That would be awesome.
I like how it ki.da brings back the second gen look the last one was great but not the best looking
I Like the 2010 models. Last generations way better. Just my opinion but this is super cool to
The exhaust tip is separate from the exhaust pipe. The tip won't retain the heat like the downpipe would
Wow! You guys are right! I love the smell of burn'd plastic, leg hair & skin in the morning :( loving the car :)
More burned pant legs and scorched skin with side mounted exhaust. Get the lawyers on the line...
Oh yeah how can you not be proud of this car? I love it more every time I see it
Ralph looks so happy and proud of this car. He should be, it is amazing. Congratulations to him and his team, and thank you Sergio for allowing SRT to flourish.
@Nick Cars these days need these things for safety reasons, to be able to be road legal.
Maybe if it were a real Viper I would see why he kissed it; traction control, abs, and ESP made this car a real joke. The Viper seems to have lost it's will to kill.
@domi if dodge worked there ass off, wouldn't they want to put there name on it?
There is NO, I repeat, NO resemblances to corvette or crap agera. This is Viper all the way. If you grew up seeing and loving this car, it is unmistakably and uniquely a mixture of old and fresh design!
It's obvious dodge worked their ass off and had so much dedication towards the viper, it's a legend!
I've loved all the vipers accept this one... I like the front, but they sooooo copies the agera's lights, and the backs weird... I think it's the lights but idk
Really like from the doors back. Really not liking the way the headlights/hood scoop/front bumper makes the car look. I dont know how to describe, just not my cup of tea.
IMO the design team has done a great job. The car looks up to date, has a sprinkle of Italian finesse, and is still instantly recognizable as the Hammer that it is, a Vipor. Nice work..
@Matt the first gen viper was all American. This one is based off of gen 1 and 2 which again is all American design. What are you smoking? Much be some strong shit. This doesn't remind me of euro design at all.
Who cares if It looks like a maserati? 1. A maserati is so rare, will any "normal" person tell u it looks like one? And 2. If it has better quality, faster and American(only applying to people of the u.s/Canada,) who gives a damn?*cough only fanboys*
IMO I think this car is bringing back the aura & style of the original Dodge Viper
I'm really a huge Viper fan, and this is a beautiful car, but I really don't like the fact that this almost looks more like a Maserati than a Viper.
USDM cars need to stop trying to make their cars look European. This Viper is fugly.
This is the GTS and uses more carbon. The entry level or "core" viper as they are calling it, will have a color matched taillight surround.
Ya, they needed to put the back-up lights in the middle of the tailights, then put the viper logo in the middle of that, so when you back-up the viper lights up white :)
The lights look odd with the space in te middle of them... They have a nice shape to them, I just don't like how they're like hollowed out if u know what I mean.
I just had an epiphany. Blue Chrome wrap with chrome American racing stripes.
Didn't they say in the video that it could be painted? He said it when he was showing the taillights.
I am willing to bet that if you buy one you can get it with the carbon fiber painted to match.
I'm really adjusting to like the back. But i'd still prefer it to be all red
Yeah and turbo lag? Its a 6.2 with pushrods it could be a 90 and there would be no lag it aint some weak forein modular 4.0 v8
i was going to defend the supercharger but Alanda intelligently did that for me.
8.4 liter!!!?? What the
The ZR1 does not have a weight or balance issue...so the weight of a supercharger is to no effect. Besides...turbos aren't feather weight either. Don't forget all the plumbing and waste gates, etc. that go with it. Turbos are just another component waiting to go bad.
76mm!? Talk about severe turbo lag.
America needs turbo v8's. A zr1 would be lighter, faster, and more fuel efficient with a single 76mm turbo. 50lbs taken from up high on the front end would improve handling as well. It already has a heavy heat exchanger so an intercooler is no prob
I want to see this car at the barrett-Jackson auto auction, that is freaking fun!!!
philosophy. And I actually tend to agree with them. There is no replacement for displacement.
That's a horrible idea. The engine makes what the engine makes regardless of whether or not it uses forced induction. You could easily supercharge a Viper. But the reason they gave it such a large disp. is so you don't have to. This is their
The Viper ACR beat the zr1 in just about everything besides a drag race. The ACR was developed to carve those corners. zr1 lap: 7:19ish ACR lap: 7:11ish ACRX lap: 7:03ish
BTW I realize the GTR is NOT supercharged, I was referring to FI. Before anyone takes a huge crap in their pants after looking at my commen
Hahahaha Simeon then you better start crossing a lot of crap off your list. Start with the GTR.
Isn't the Zr1 super charged?? Idk but to me that is cowardly. Races should have cars that are all raw power, only what the motor produces.
the only record the agera r broke was top speed, not lap time
@Brad the Zr-1 did not beat a Viper at the track. The 2010 Viper STILL held the Nur. record until the Agera R just beat it.
If we are talking straight line speed well the act was built to be able to take the track and drive! The wings on the acr add over a thousand pounds of downforce. Which will bring down the speed.
It always seemed that the viper had too much torque for it to handle, it always wheel spun, if you can valence out the horsepower to torque ratio, it should be fine
Well I hope it is faster but when the 10 viper acr srt10 was out it was blown away by the zr1. Even with the extra power. The zr1 is $130,000 the viper acr was $120,000ish before
Plus dodge new it's target and priced the viper accordingly. They probably had a zr1 as a benchmark while developing the viper just like Nissan had a 996/7 turbo Porsche along while developing the r35.
This gts is definitely faster than a zl1. 49/51 balance 650hp 600tq 3300lbs 355's in the back Zr1: 52/48 638hp 604tq 3258lbs 335/25/20 rears. More weight up front, less grip out back, recipe for slower lap times.
I'm a viper fan I'm just wishing they upped the performance and looks. 600hp is a lot but the zr1 is still faster. Like I said they have a v10 platform to play with they could've easily made it faster
Agreed at best looking viper. Disappointed under the hood. They stalled the viper for one year to re do it to compete with the zr1. It's always been corvette vs viper. Now the viper is remodeled but the srt10 acr is still slower then the zr1.
