    I remember once being at a Corvette meet and a Vipar rolled thru slowly , the car sounded like it had been camed and you could feel the thunder up thru the bottom of your shoes and this guy with a big grin and an occasional wave just gutted the place as he left and he had everyone’s attention, Damn it man!! Lol!

    The Gen 5 Viper was one of the best looking cars ever made and also one of the most underappreciated. I think this car is already starting to become one of those "I wish I had bought one when they were new" cars. The price was definitely an issue before Dodge dropped it by 15k and so was the fact that they made SRT a brand with this being the flagship. SRT Viper just doesn't roll off the tongue like Dodge Viper does. It's a shame too because the car was fantastic, it just got overshadowed by the less expensive C6 Corvette ZR1 and then when Dodge came out with the Hellcat in 2015, you could get a more powerful and more practical car for far less money. They shot themselves in the foot.

    If I had to choose between mopar I would say cuda, viper, demon. the viper can be really quick with 1 mod nitrous for the lower side of the rpm into high mph on a roll can be really formidable. Build the motors of one of these on a twin turbo and e85 and it’s a done deal for one to go Mclearen hunting.

    The slower acceleration is only partly due to the gearing, but the main reason is the crank weight is 20 pounds more then a small block V8 and the flywheel size and weight.

    Ah, one of the few American Supercars, much like yourself, these have intrigued me since my childhood. I always figure if I hit it big, I'll buy one. I've always found the fact that they're compromised a bit, part of the appeal, much like a Lambo or a Ferrari. They're supposed to be slightly uncomfortable and impractical. What a beast of a machine, here's hoping they decide to bring it back sooner rather than later!

    Oh man thats a tough one, because I like new & old school and also love the Vipers. My first car was a 68 Charger that I got in 82 when I was 17, and am currently building a Challenger SRT8. I look at it like this, Challenger demons or hellcats are my favorite modern muscle cars and the ACR Viper is the #1 road course machine ever built. Someone might freak out over that statement, but it is the facts and has more records than any other vehicle in automotive racing history with 13. In 2015, it set records at the top road courses in the country and isn't even a close second. Since that time, a ZL1 reset one of them at Laguna Seca and have a hell of a long ways to go before any of them match it. Don't know if you've ever heard of a channel on here titled woman driven, and has multiple machines. Including a challenger redeye and just recently got a gorgeous ACR to add to her collection of badass rides. She's also got a really sweet ZL1 Camaro and built 5.0 as well as GT-R and has a really good channel. The most impressive thing though is, she does most of her own work and is a better mechanic than most guys. She has her own shop and the best tools to work on them, so you should check her out sometime if you haven't already and will share a link to her vid on the Viper reveal for anyone that would like see what she's got going..ruclips.net/video/6Qndxft_YdM/видео.html
