2013 Dodge Viper

The SRT Viper and Viper GTS both will have same new logo called ‘Stryker’ by the viper club of America. This new viper has been given the naturally aspirated  8.4 litre v10  which produces 640hp and 600lb torque. This engine also made a record as it has more torque then any other naturally aspirated  engine in the world. The new Viper is also 25 pound lighter then the old one, and tech that includes electronic mulitstage stability control, traction control and 4 way brakes.
The whole mess is linked to a 6-speed manual (manual) transmission with a shorter throw and closer gear ratios. While I am thrilled to hear that it's got a manual transmission, I'm ecstatic to learn that the shifting situation has been improved. No more icing my right shoulder after a stint in the driver's seat. There are two versions of the new Viper; the regular one and the GTS. They both got a much-needed interior upgrade, with nicer materials. See Interior of 2013 Dodge Viper.
The legendary manual gearbox is refreshed too and is 3.55 mili second faster then older one. The body is aluminum and interoir totally new .right now there is no information about it acceleration or top speed. The 640-hp V10 aluminum engine sticks around for the reincarnated Viper. It's got a bit more horsepower that the last version, and a bit less torque, at an even 600 lb-ft. See Engine of 2013 Dodge Viper.
The look of the Viper has become iconic in the past nearly two decades, and SRT didn't want to mess with that. There were rumors that new partner-via-Fiat Ferrari might have a hand in the new Viper's design, but the final product seems to have kept the brutish American look we've come to love. The ultra-high flow intake manifold is newly lightened, and there's an aluminum flywheel.
But like so many Americans, the Viper did need to lose some weight. This was achieved by using new carbon-fiber panels for the hood, roof, and decklid, plus aluminum door panels. Signature touches like the "gills" at the fenders that cool the engine and the double-bubble roofline that allows for more headroom were kept, while the headlights and taillights got the full LED treatment and a little snarly upgrade to their look.

  1. This car is absolutely unreal! I can only imagine how fast this thing goes, it looks like it flies! I really don't think Dodge gets enough credit for their sports cars, because this is a GREAT car.
