Vehicle Overview
The SRT Viper returned last year following a brief hiatus. A complete redesign, it packs a massive 8.4-liter V-10 engine that makes 640 horsepower and 600 pounds-feet of torque. This rear-wheel-drive exotic sports car comes only with a six-speed manual transmission and is offered in base and GTS trim levels. The Viper is offered as a coupe only and competes with the Chevrolet Corvette, Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R.
New for 2014
A new TA Special Edition Package for the base model includes an aero kit, carbon fiber trim, orange stitching in the cabin, a two-mode suspension with unique tuning, unique Brembo-brand brakes, lightweight wheels and a carbon fiber brace. A new Anodized Carbon Edition Package for the GTS includes matte-black paint, carbon fiber trim, gloss- and satin-black accents, orange brake calipers, Alcantara interior trim and orange accent stitching. Meanwhile, the electronic stability system gains a Rain mode.
