Gotta say this is a bad *** car! After people put a few miles on a 2015 then sell so its actually affordable this might have to be my next car.

Damn I just looked it up wow!

Dodge also made a Charger Hellcat as well. Pretty crazy those cars make more power than the Viper.

It's an impressive engine no doubt, but its still a massive vehicle. Their curb weight is 1000 LBS more than a 370. It's going to be a different vehicle entirely.

From the reviews I've watch so far, seems to handle really well for such a heavy car. But we both know its a straight line car. For only 60k, its a lot of performance for the money.

It's also a Dodge. I can't speak for the entire nation here but Dodge in the south I'd the cheap people car. The dodges down here might see 5-8 years on the road at best. Infact, the Dodge magnums and chargers are almost non existent. Never see them anymore but when they first came out I'd see 60 of them a hour

I would take a Viper any day of the week, I don't care if it is a Dodge. And Dodge/Chrysler has really stepped it up lately, just as Chevy has.

It's a personal perference, and personally mine says stay away from dodge. I'd take a 370z over a Viper or Hell Cat all day

On the smoking tire they said it pulled similar numbers handling wise as the Alpha 4C which if that's true is pretty incredible.

All the cop cars are chargers way down south.

Which is a good thing. Jefferson Parish started first then New Orleans picked them up. Won't see many of them left in 5-6 years.

the viper is my dream car... pure muscle and love the looks... i was at the auto show last march... was there for 3 hours... walked around the viper for 45 minutes of that time... sweet a$$ car

I think a Charger or Challenger Hellcat needs to be added to my stable sometime in the future... I like.

I wonder what some tuning would net out of that beast?

****, although my preference is for one in black, I'd rock the radioactive waste green one. That is a proper muscle car.

The new Viper's ECU is locked, can't tune it or anything. Bunch of pissed off Viper owners over in the forums... I'm wondering if they did the same thing with the Hellcat?
