8.4 liters. 10 cylinders. 640 horsepower. 600 lb-ft of torque. 3297 pounds. It’s still a Viper.
Here’s the long awaited 2013 SRT Viper. There is only one choice, a 6 speed manual transmission. Weight is down while power is up. Stability control and an 8.4 inch touch screen are concessions to comfort, but there will be a track version that loses another 57 pounds. Sounds like the right concept. Execution will be an entirely different matter.

- Lou_BC Actuality a very reasonable question.
- Lou_BC Peak rocket esthetic in those taillights (last photo)
- Lou_BC A pickup for most people would be a safe used car bet. Hard use/ abuse is relatively easy to spot and most people do not come close to using their full capabilities.
- Lorenzo People don't want EVs, they want inexpensive vehicles. EVs are not that. To paraphrase the philosopher Yogi Berra: If people don't wanna buy 'em, how you gonna stop 'em?
- Ras815 Ok, you weren't kidding. That rear pillar window trick is freakin' awesome. Even in 2024.

Hood's too long
The Viper has always been a vulgar pig of a car, the thought that throwing horsepower at a problem somehow fixes it. And while you can throw a few aero kits on it and make it fast around a track and handle well, the street version of this thing will just kill you. And let's not forget what happens when some idiot puts this engine in a pickup truck.
