Why viper is the best car? And why you fags don't appreciate it?
Because Dodge is a failure of a company, worse than Ford and Chevy.
>>14773213
Because it needs the hellcat engine and an optional flappy paddle to sell.
Would sound better and be even faster while using less fuel and costing less to maintain.
Or, you know, keep using a lolnorevs V10 and just keep increasing the stroke forever.
>>14773251
Fiat wouldn't allow the Viper to be better than the F12
>>14773251
Why ruin one of last driver's car with paddles?
Smaller v10 with higher revs would be sweet thou
>>14773269
Because it needs to sell, bro.
Keep the manual as the standard, make a nice 7 speed flappy paddle a $1000 extra.
Drop the engine back to an 8L so it can now rev to 7,500
>>14773278
>so it can now rev to 7,500
What's the point in that

Fuel saving
>>14773213
I appreciate it as being one of the last true drivers cars that opted to stay true to it roots rather than follow the meta of lolflappy paddles and hybrid motors. Sure it could be faster, sure it could have been changed to fit what the modern rich fuck who only drives to cars n coffee on a sunday wants to spend money on but it wasn't. Some how the Viper in 2016 was able to stay at the least remotely close to what it originally was which was a horrible loud overheating dangerous motor on wheels that had no real purpose for existing besides saying fuck you. The car will always be one of my favorites ever made.
Oh, lets not forget in ACR trim it's fast as fuck an laughs at million dollar hybrid super cars.

More revs = more gud
Would also use less fuel and be overall capable of more power.
>>14773289
And if it had the hellcat engine and a 7-speed flappy paddle it would be much, much faster.
>>14773255
this is exactly why there's no hellcat viper, ferrari still ruining something despite not even being involved
>>14773297
Yeah, and make another v8 super car with paddles.
New supercars are boring. Design with rich fags in mind who doesn't really care about driving. They care only about "potential". "Muh car is faster on paper "
>>14773297
>be overall capable of more power.
That's not how it works. If that were true for every engine design we'd be seeing 1 liter engine revving to 20,000. Power starts to fall off at the top of the rev range because the engine doesn't get enough air during the intake stroke and so compression decreases.
>>14773251
Doesn't need the Hellcat engine, and besides, it wouldn't fit under the bonnet. What it needs is a Hemi-based V10 instead of one based on the old Magnum V10. Apply cam-in-cam and combine it with the Hmi's excellent airflow, and it'd surely make over 707hp.
Flappy paddles would absolutely detract from the Viper's percieved rawness. A dogbox sequential would be better.
>>14773303
No, it's because you can't fit a supercharged engine below the Viper's bonnet.
>>14773278
There's no decent DCT, not even outside of FCA's portfolio, that'll handle Viper power cheaply.
And the engine doesn't need revs. Being torquey is it's entire character.
>>14773288
>>14773297
More piston speed = more fuel savings
Wat
>>14773297
Modern engines are limited by airflow, not RPM, ya doofus. Having the Viper rev higher would only decrease torque down low, it wouldn't increase power because the piston speed would be through the roof.
VIper isn't about being rational. It's about being irrational and setting good times while doing so.

Maybe in a straight line.

not with that attitude
Its not appreciated, simply because compared to European Sports cars such as TVR, Lotus, Ferrari, lambo and such, and it's not all about price. Its a complete piece of shit.
>>14773552
Twin turbo's simply fit better. Why add aero drag if you don't have to?

>instead of one based on the old Magnum V10
The Viper's engine hasn't been based on the old Magnum in years. It's its own engine entirely.
I like it. Much torque and downforce.
Over here it's pretty fucking expensive too though, then again it's nowhere close to the sticker for the cars that it's said to match on track. Pretty sick.
But for that pricetag you could also get a radical or similar.
>>14773213
I like to think that snekposters with bad grammar are severely retarded from launching vipers too hard.
