Don't you dare call this a Dodge. This is the SRT Viper, the only model currently in Chrysler's performance sub-brand lineup (the upcoming Barracuda is coming later). It is my favorite Chrysler product that is currently on the market today. Power comes from a naturally-aspirated 8.4-liter V10 making 640 HP and 600 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual. Lately, Viper sales haven't been very strong and as a result, Chrysler has decided to lay off employees at the Viper's production facility in Detroit. Sure, the Viper is fast, good-looking, and has one of the largest engine displacements in the U.S., but it isn't as great of an all-around sports car as the Corvette Stingray in my opinion.
