Gen V Dodge Viper ACR

Dodge is getting its act together. Carbon ceramic brakes on this one, and that checkered suede is badass

I also like the subtle checkered seats.

Ever since I drove the 06 srt10 I have hated vipers ever since and I have test drove the new one and got the same feeling. And they are so bloodly slow for what they are. They look good though

I love the checkered suede - I absolutely cannot stand that wing, even if it does have some functionality.

Very nice machine but they probably still won't sell for shit as compared to the Corvette.

Great car. For the money, it's C7 ZO6 all day, though. (Price for the ZO6 has yet to be officially released, right?)

If it's heads you want to turn, the Viper does that 100 to 1 over any Corvette. Most people don't see a ZR1 and get excited, they don't understand. A Viper has that ability, to get nearly everyone excited.

Viper gets more looks than Lamborghini. Fact

**allbaugh_04** · 10-28-2014, 05:07 PM

It doesn't look like a fuckin lamborghini

Who said that?

**theorangeguy** · 10-28-2014, 06:02 PM

I think it looks exactly like a Lamborghini...except for the fact that one is a snake and one is a bull...one is mid engine and one is not...one is Italian and one is 'merican...

Mine was a joke...I'm smart enough to understand that you said it gets more attention than a lambo...it was a sarcastic remark for the other guy who said "it doesn't look anything like a lambo"...

It probably does possess about the same level of reliability as a Lamborghini.

It was never meant to. That being said, the new one has been somewhat of a disappointment, even with current viper owners. They're not selling at all

sales went up 140% when they dropped the price to more realistic levels to compete with the GTR's and Z06's of the world...granted, that means they only sold 106 vs like 40 or something like that but people did take note of the price drop. With that said, the viper has never been a big seller anyway...its never been a knock it out of the park type of car when its comes to volume which is one of the reasons they hold value so well. Not many people own them.

**5.0THIS** · 10-29-2014, 10:34 AM

106? lol. There's probably more Bugatti Veyrons running around than that.

Bugatti only sold 47 cars last year vs 106 vipers in a month so I find that one unlikely as well.

I find it hilarious that you actually took the time to go look that up. You didn't really prove me wrong though. I never said Bugatti sold more Veyrons in the same period. I said there were probably more of them running around than new Vipers. I guess you missed the sarcasm of the comparison I suggested though. I should surely hope that Dodge can sell more 130,000$ Vipers than Bugatti can sell 1-2 million dollar veyrons.

I type 140 words a minute...took me like 5 seconds and google.

I got your sarcasm...just can't pass up an opportunity to give you a hard time.

Dodge needs to 1) give that V10 a legitimate power bump 2) offer carbon ceramic breaks on GTS/TA models and 3) keep prices in the same realm as the Corvettes.
