Goddamn. I'm not even a mopar guy, but hats off to SRT. If its really true the death of the viper is coming on 2017, im glad to see theyre going out on top. Even the snobbiest among us can take the time to appreciate the balls out-and-sparking-on-the-pavement ridiculousness of the viper
>inb4 this becomes a merifat v europoor or other troll thread
Lets all take a moment to 'murica as one, as this glorious beast of a car rages against the dying of the light.

Too bad chevy was too busy creating exploding vehicles to be successful.
>>13831246
the viper is italian tho
also thanks for the email
>>13831254
And Ferrari is American
See how that doesn't work?
>>13831254
Owned by an Italian? Sure. Designed and built by Italians? Nope.
Hell, the Honda Accord and NSX are pretty American too, seeing they're both built in Marysville Ohio.
Is that the response you were fishing for? If so, glad to help.

Laughing Hitler. Jpg

The originaly 8.0 V10 was casted by Lamborghini. The new 8.4 isn't very similar
>>13831312
except its the same engine, the only difference is the hemi inspired head and bigger bore and stroke

>>13831293
>the engine was made by lamborghini
>Production of the V10 engine started at Mound Road Engine before moving to Conner Avenue Assembly
>Prototype blocks were cast by Lamborghini, at the time a Chrysler division.

Are you some kind of moron?
>>13831349
>have to buy lamborghini in order to be able to make a proper engine
>20 years later italians have to buy the company because americans cant administrate it correctly
>>13831349
>moron logic
SRT is a FCA make now. Seems like they are italian after all :^) Just like lamborghini was american :^)
>>13831370
Well, to be fair, it's more like their products were roundly rejected by the marketplace because supply & demand and the free market works.
Chrysler was absolute garbage for decades, earning a TERRIBLE reputation domestically, so honestly, it's a good thing they're owned by the Italians now, because management had their heads so far up their own asses, it wasn't even funny. As far as I know, interior design quality, and general build quality has gone up significantly in the last couple years.
Great job murica, thank you for proving that ICE and manuels gearbox remain GOAT.
heh i left my email in. Send me your dirtiest HON HON HON HON HON HON HON HON HON HON HON HON

Don't be fucking rude.
>>13831450
Alphonse is one of them subhumans you might have heard about
>>13831450
>Largest Production Car Engine

>When you realise that a car with an ancient truck engine is faster than the newest hybrid-porsche full with electronics and assists
>>13831319
and several other internal differences to handle the increased power, yeah
>>13831346
I bought a Z/28 instead. Its... marginally more useful than the Viper would be.
Wife really wanted the Viper. Her dream car. Too bad!
New Viper has its shut together.

>having to buy Lamborghini to make proper V10
>not chopping two cylinders off a 5.9 and grafting them onto another 5.9 to make a V10 which is what actually happened
>>13835749
They did that, then sent it over to Lamborghini to get some decent power out of it.
>>13835645
>mu-muh RADICAL!!1

Isn't there a comparison image with what it looks like now floating around somewhere? I remember being pretty blown away by how much things have improved.
