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 Viper was my favorite car growing up back in the 90’s. Love the way it look and sound. One day I will drive one. There isn’t anything like it in the world.
The viper was worth 200k or more, it gutted aventadors and other supercars and held the most production track records of any vehicle in history, even three years after it went out of production
Viper....epic....legendary.....Hey, just purchased a magnaflow system.....I am stoked!..... Can't wait for that bad boy to be thrown on! Thx for the inspiration!
if you dont want the attention this not the car for you i have a 14 red stryker gts with Laguna interior!fun car to drive the gears a very tall i can hit 60 in first gear!!i put a arrow pcm in mine love it!the 355s still slides around alot!no traction at all
Street presence is second to none in any year Viper. Straight line acceleation is impressive and yes there are faster cars out there BUT the Viper was never made to dominate the 1/4 mile. It HAS and still does dominate the race track!!
The old Viper is actually mid engine. Putting the engine in the back, I don't see how it could keep the same iconic look without looking backwards. If they decide to do one, they need to give it a different snake name!
They're not worth the price as every Tom Dick and Harry that has a hellcat or a trackhawk with even as much as a pulley done to it is going to walk this thing like a dog.... Best looking Mopar might be the better term
I'm only 6 numbers away in this weeks Lottery from owning a Viper! I know the Chevy and Porsche guys were not happy that the Viper ACR took 1st in Motor Trend's comparison test back in 2016. My guess is that -- IF -- there ever is another Viper we'll hear a whir sound instead of a V10.
Dude, do some research on the car before reviewing it. The entire hood is carbon. The venom on the engine and brakes clearly are not factory. Between this and not knowing they were factory wheels, you lost me. You’re better than this, man.
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.
I can see why you would think this as it is kind of a wild card. I feel like it's always been the dodges version of the corvette. Either way very sad to see them go.
@@JayRSwan Carroll Shelby help dodge make a sportcar that resulted the original viper in the 90s which was in fact a successor of the Cobra and Dodge can’t call it a cobra so they decided to name it another serpent, the Viper.
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.
"Is the 5th Gen Viper the badest Mopar ever"? you ask. Well, I have a 4th Gen Viper with full bolt ons and 3.55 gears with Mopar race tune that is a "badder" and faster than the 5th Gen Viper. Just saying.
My only complaint with gen V was that the SRT model didn’t come with a back up camera. Other then that it’s a damn good car to me. All the other models got the back up camera
Out of every car I’ve seen from lambos to ferraris and gtrs corvettes mk4 Supra hellcats all over here never once in my life have I seen a viper and I’m waiting for the day
I can vouch for that. I bought a gen V 3 years ago when values tanked. A launch edition with 500mi and now I have a second gen V that was 30k more. Excellent car, highly recommend! Viper lives matter
Wow man! Good job on finding one of these to shoot, the viper has always had a soft spot in my heart. Wish they weren’t so damn expensive maybe 1 day. Good video man love the content it’s good to see your channel grow you deserve it man.
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!
Love this channel! Anyway you could do a comparison between dodge charger R/T and Scat Pack or review or the charger scat pack?? I really want to pull the trigger on one of the two but still undecided!! Thanks!
What are they asking for that Viper X? At least a ballpark figure? Thanks for your post X. I have lusted for a Viper since they came out. It would make a nice piece for the collection. WWG1WGA
Such a cool car, a guy around the corner has a blue one with white stripes in the garage I see it when I’m riding my bicycle, oh yeah, congratulations on your state opening up 100%, the rest of the country should follow,I’m hoping one day to move to Texas, maybe bayou who knows
Nice.....this video took me back to when I was a kid building dicast models. The 2014 viper t/a is on my bucket list to own 1 day. Car meets and charity drives, would be my main goal with this car.....ontop of just having fun 👍
Viper has been my dream car as a child but I can’t drive a manual so guess it’s hellcat red eye for me but still can’t complain. I will never forget late early in the morning about 3am I seen some chick driving a ACR viper. Nobody else was around and I was statstruck. I was like damn there goes my bucket list car lol. I didn’t wanna be a creeper and follow but it’d def be for the car and not the woman driving. It’s one of those things you forget about everything else in the world when you see one.
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
I really don’t know why some people who drive a viper say the pedals are weird. I never drove a viper and bought a Gen 5 and drove it and it wasn’t no big difference to me then any other manual car. And for a car that’s at least 4 years older then a lot of your zl1 , vettes ,Hellcats etc it still smokes the stock majority of them.
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.
No other car is even remotely similar to the feel of driving a Viper.
Except my geo metro
This is true 🔥
How bout the Shelby corba
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!
It’s a Monster. Really one of the best looking cars ever made
I agree 🔥
one of the best looking american cars

Hey X, you need to buy that viper, can't wait to see the review of that madmax truck.that thing is badass looking.
You'll help make payments?
@@wileecoyote5749 probably not brother lol.
Love the Viper but I have a few others at the top of my list
@@RacerX9 which cars are above the viper?😁
@@FighterOfTheGoodFight Something he can afford probably lol
I. LOVE. my 2013 Viper GTS Stryker Red
Viper....epic....legendary.....Hey, just purchased a magnaflow system.....I am stoked!..... Can't wait for that bad boy to be thrown on! Thx for the inspiration!
The cool thing is whatever iteration you choose , it's still the same motor producing the same power. Each version has its purpose.
Always liked the Viper, at the end of the video I was looking at the GO Green Challenger same color as my Scat, another great video X keep it up
my 1993 viper is brutal and i love it, you can have those mass produced hell cats
if you dont want the attention this not the car for you i have a 14 red stryker gts with Laguna interior!fun car to drive the gears a very tall i can hit 60 in first gear!!i put a arrow pcm in mine love it!the 355s still slides around alot!no traction at all

It might not be the fastest, or most power, but that car has the most reputation of any car, and makes a bold statement with that roaring V10.
the need to come out with a mid/rear engine Viper in the future.
The old Viper is actually mid engine. Putting the engine in the back, I don't see how it could keep the same iconic look without looking backwards. If they decide to do one, they need to give it a different snake name!
I AGREE, VIPER IS THE BEST CAR EVER MADE !!!!!!!
I’d for sure say yes, you can respectfully call this a supercar. IMHO!
I certainly consider it a supercar
That's a all carbon fiber hood and is about 18k to replace
BTW, those wheels are Factory wheels, but the tires are not.
Had a 2014 and loved it. Regret selling it everyday. I sold it for $79000 with 6k miles and bought a new Z06. Bad move.
I was seriously considering the C7 Zo6. I thought it was more refined but that little voice kept telling me Gen 5. Glad I listened to it.
IT HAS 355’S 😭😭 whattttt
Crazy isn't it
@@RacerX9 makes my heart happy 🤣❣️ such a beauty!

Best looking Mopar out there‼️ Such a WICKED looking car as you see one coming towards you and a neck snapper as you turn to watch it go by‼️💯😮😯😲
The gen 2&5 Viper coupes are simply timeless designs. I will never sell my B&W UGR TT 1996 Viper GTS!
I’ve always loved the viper and still want to get one ,I don’t see them that often corvettes you see all day long I really think the viper is KING

Damn I love the Viper!! What’s the reason they pulled the plug? Sales??
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Despite aftermarket mods being really expensive for vipers, they are some of the fastest streetcars/daily-drivable out there.
Seen a viper acr on the road few months back and damn that thing was awesome looking!
Yes the ACR is legit
I would love to see dodge bring them back.
It’s a really awesome car, definition of badass
It’s a wicked machine for sure
3:53 *No, they aren't. Those are stock viper GTS wheels*
Also the R888R it has only come in 345, but yes 355 is the factory width.
@@cplbulletsponge righto my boy
And those we're the stock Viper wheels on that GTS my friend
Yes understood.. I mispoke .. I was actually refering to the tires and not the wheels themselves.
Viper is definitely the baddest mopar ever. It was technically the modern reincarnation of the Shelby Cobra.
I can see why you would think this as it is kind of a wild card. I feel like it's always been the dodges version of the corvette. Either way very sad to see them go.

Just saying.
It's crazy they still go for 100k+
The rare VIPER Gen. 4 Convertible is the best Mopar ever! Wiki it. Drive it. And you'll see.....
I beg to defer, my Dodge Journey is the best most ever.
This viper is nothing compared to it.
The important michael hisologically suggest because pants accordantly heat without a purring good-bye. married, thirsty ink
My only complaint with gen V was that the SRT model didn’t come with a back up camera. Other then that it’s a damn good car to me. All the other models got the back up camera
The armored up looking truck makes me think of the MRAPS I rode around in while working in Iraq lol.
if you know you know but Lil Uzi Vert has that Truck
Nothing dodge has produced touches the viper.. the hellcats can’t do anything but go straight. The viper is a pure track car with straight power.
I can say one thing. It is A Head Turner. (Neck Breaker)
Plus look at spec that is actually my dream spec white black stripes
Out of every car I’ve seen from lambos to ferraris and gtrs corvettes mk4 Supra hellcats all over here never once in my life have I seen a viper and I’m waiting for the day

Cool car, but there is NOTHING like a 60's AC Cobra.
You should buy a viper
I really hope that Florida treat's you well you have had lots of great content and been a bit slow after your move that I am going thru old posts
Great video RacerX. 5th gen Viper is one of my dream cars. I want one in Adrenaline Red.
The real issue with the viper, and it's a big one is that every other cars are "tasteless" to me now... it's kinda sad.
i should of been there i will maby saturday
She's a Beauty! Too bad Dodge isn't making them anymore, a Classic!
The Viper has always been one of my favorite cars. Just so over the top and badass! 💪🔥💪
Wow man! Good job on finding one of these to shoot, the viper has always had a soft spot in my heart. Wish they weren’t so damn expensive maybe 1 day. Good video man love the content it’s good to see your channel grow you deserve it man.
the new 2022 BRZ hind of looks like a baby viper
Bought my hellcat from Jimmy at hurst autoplex.
TRX SUCKS. Top speed 118. NUFF SAID
I just bought a 2015 white gt. I can't wait to get her home
If I can’t get a 5 gen I will settle with a 1st gen Audi R8.
Those are stock "rattler" wheels not aftermarket
I think he was talking about the tires,not wheels
Could the New Dodge EV logo be the Viper Logo
Sounds like a honda big turn off
Not after market, those are factory wheels.
Was watching until he called the factory Rattler wheels aftermarket.
Sacrilege
What models come with the 6 vent hood??
Id rather have a carol shelby 427
yes, yes, yes it is 100% worth the price.
Those are factory Rattler wheels.
Those are the standard wheels on the GenV

If your buying used there usaully a lil less price range on a rt is 5k or 4k less and scat pack hits the 43k mark
I have actually done several videos comparing the two.. the last of which was just a few months ago 👍
The car is truly the best overall MOPAR ever built.
Yes I would tend to agree
I love my Viper TA
Def top 3 mopar ever
I'm all for the ACR. That thing is SICK! Great review Racer X! The Dodge Viper! The car inspired by Carroll Shelby's AC 427 Cobra!
