For 2008, the Dodge Viper
SRT will use an 8.4-liter aluminum V-10 engine that produces a full 600 horsepower and 560 lb.-ft. of torque. 0-60 times are under four seconds, 0-100-0 in under 12 seconds, and braking 60-0 comes in less than 100 feet. See how Dodge Vipers are built! ... See the new ACR model!
For “extended 2009” models (no 2010 Viper was in the press book), there will be four new exterior colors, will be used: GTS Blue Clear Coat, Snakeskin Green Pearl Coat, Viper Race Yellow Clear Coat, VOI X Edition Silver Clear Coat. New features include Premium Tan Interior Package, Nappa leather seats with perforated centers, black and tan two-tone trim, and a tan canvas convertible top (roadster only).
oh20 reported that the 2008 Viper Coupe and Convertible both averaged over 200 mph around the Transportation Research Center’s 7.5 mile oval test track in Ohio. The convertible even averaged 197 mph with the top down. Both have similar drag (aerodynamic) numbers, according to representatives of the SRT team.
The invoice price on the 2009 Viper SRT10 Coupe was $82,989 for the base car, which had an MSRP of $89,340; Customer Preferred Package 21B added $12,060 (MSRP $13,550). The gas guzzler tax adds $1,751 to the cost but Chrysler seems to subsidize that, charging owners a rounded-down $1,700. The destination charge of $930 is the same for the dealer and the buyer.
SRT powertrain engineers had to not only increase performance, but also comply with regulatory requirements such as federal Tier 2, Bin 5 and California’s Low Emissions Vehicle (LEV) 2 mandates. Working with specialists from McLaren Performance Technologies and Ricardo, Inc., SRT engineers began by following the racer’s basic formula for more power: bigger displacement, more efficient breathing and higher engine speed.Source URL: http://danger-radioactive.blogspot.com/2010/01/dodge-viper.html
