Dodge Viper ACR (2016-17)



 The 2016-17 ACR is the fastest and last Dodge Viper model ever made. Its engine specs are identical to those of the fifth-gen Viper base, GTS, GTC, and TA models, with a 8.4-liter V10 producing 645 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque. Each 2013 and newer Viper model launches from 0 to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds and can reach a top speed of 177 mph. All fifth-gen Vipers came equipped with six-speed manual transmissions. An aerodynamic kit sets the ACR apart from the other Viper trim levels, consisting of a prominent fixed rear wing, front fender cutouts, and a larger front splitter. While the 2016-17 Viper ACR was in production, it shattered lap records at various racetracks such as the Nurburgring and Laguna Seca. Unfortunately, FCA had to give the Viper the axe due to mediocre sales and its lack of side curtain airbags. Regardless, this snake is one of the most impressive Chrysler products in existence, despite now getting outshined by the Challenger Hellcat/Demon and Charger Hellcat. In terms of the competition, I would rather have the C7 Corvette, especially the Z06 and ZR1, because the Vette is more exhilarating and usable on a regular basis.
