More venomous eye candy, and in the case of the new SRT Viper, you can never get enough visual poison. Chrysler has announced pricing: US$97,395 (RM300k) for the bottom-rung model. The range-topping Viper GTS, however, goes for US$120,395 (RM371k).
Both the Viper and Viper GTS have an 8.4 litre all-aluminium V10 engine under the hood that churns out 640 hp and a tyre-shredding 814 Nm of twist. SRT (short for Street and Racing Technology), Chrysler’s performance arm, claims the torque figure is the highest among naturally-aspirated sports cars. A six-speed stick shift is standard, as is a speed-sensitive limited-slip differential.
The Viper GTS gets several enhancements such as active suspension and forged aluminium ‘Venom’ rims to set it apart from the base car.
Viper production is set to begin in November at Detroit’s Conner Avenue Assembly Plant (the Viper’s home since its first generation in 1995), and order books will open in mid-November.
Chrysler wants to make SRT a separate brand, so expect to see more ‘SRT Viper’ than the ‘Dodge Viper’ we grew up with. Then again, what’s in a name when you’ve got this much power and torque?
Go ahead and check out the pictures (the GTS is the blue one with racing stripes). Just look at those hood louvres!
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Well for a 8400 cc car..the horses are realy low…but the look kinda nice tough…
And the light at the back looks maseratish..
and the wheels are round…like the ones found on a kancil…
Well then~ it has always looked that way ever since the first iteration. Just enhanced and evolved over time. It’s made out of metal just like a kancil too
they did say for naturally aspirated engine, the horsepower figure is quite high.. turbos and supercharged ones don’t count
yeah..but still its way too high for a car..
LOL at the 300K price. If it ever comes here, sure the price will go 1-2M.
and what does 300k buys us in Malaysia? hmm let me see, ah a 2.0 liter Audi A4. fly to usa and for the same money you can get a 8.4 liter supercar. Life is so fair.
Get a life bro. Work hard and dont waste yr time. Jerk!
Go and migrate to USA then.. infact u can’t even afford to buy an Audi A4 or even a plane ticket to the US, that’s why ure still stuck in here and keep complaining.. hahaa
i drive an e92 335 and i still complain. what logic do you have in your reply? you are simply judging a person without a single spec of knowledge of the person.
work hard? there are company owners here who are still complaining. the only diff is they buy cars under company yearly to get tax benefits.
who’s the idiot here? yeah most probably you. why have i not move out? simple. family.
why am i not using caps? because i’m talking to you.
Just wait and see what Hennessey has in store for this.
everyone complains on how low power it has considering the 8.4 litres. but think again, besides hino trucks, there arent much other cars with 8.4 litre engine.
