Completely redesigned in 2002-3, the Dodge Viper continues its quest to symbolize extreme performance. Blending brute power from its thunderous V-ten 500 bhp engine with classic, yet outrageous styling, the Dodge Viper SRT-10 retains its title as the ultimate American sports car, and the icon of the Dodge brand.
A car with style and class
The Dodge Viper SRT-10’s stylish cues include lowered hood lines, swept back fenders, and deep cut side scallops. These features are reminiscent of the original, yet give it a more refined look when compared to other supercars.
Body panels feature extensive use of some of lightweight materials, including resin injected molded and sheet molded composite panels, which comprise the windshield frame, cowl panel, rear quarter panels, front fenders, doors, hood, deck lid, and front and rear fascia.
Viewing this bad boy from the inside
From behind the wheel of this sports car’s race derived, two seat cockpit the driver looks out over a highly functional, performance oriented instrument panel. A bold center mounted tachometer and a 220-mph speedometer help to round out the cockpit.
What is visible on the outside and from the cockpit is only a small part of the ultimate sports car package; the Viper SRT-10’s true performance is defined beneath the skin.
Amazingly scary power at your fingertips
The Viper is powered by an aluminum block, V-10 engine that packs 500 bhp and an incredible 525 lb ft of torque! What's more, a whopping 90% of the torque is delivered all the way from 1,500 to 5,600 rpm. In other words, it doesn't matter what gear you're in the Viper will throw you back in the seat just as soon as you prod the loud pedal.
Taking corners with a powerhouse
This supercar features aluminum, four wheel suspension, complete with lightweight aluminum control arms and knuckles, as well as dampers with aluminum bodies front and rear. These cars travel really fast, yet they amazingly take turns and corners with the greatest of ease.
The car of the future
When you look at this nifty supercar up close and personal, you will realize that you have a car few models can match. The Viper is very fast, very stylish, and very hard to keep under wraps. Costing a mere $79,000, the Viper is more than worth the price.
