Dodge is preparing to introduce its 2008 Viper SRT 10. This car has more muscle than ever before and is every speed junkies dream.The bigger muscle is primarily derived by the 8.4L pushrod V-10 engine which produces 600 horsepower for this monster snake.
The 2008 model keeps the classic 18" front alloy wheels, paired with the 19" rear alloy wheels, but features an improved suspension offering the best handling the Viper has yet seen. However this improved handling does have its drawbacks- there is no electronic stability control, so if you have too much throttle in a tight turn it is much easier for the tail to slide out causing you to at best spin out.
This car also looks very much like a race car as well it should. The SRT 10 performed the quarter mile in 11 sec. crossing the line at 123 miles per hour. The car also goes from 60 to 0 in 109 feet thanks to the new set of 4 disc brakes that hold a tight squeeze. Along with all this comes a race inspired cock- pit that even a race car driver would envy. Dodge has added a new element to the console- an optional navigation system in case you get lost on those hair- pin turns.
All this muscle could of course be yours for a price. That price being $83,995. That price, however, is well worth it seeing as this car is being hailed the baddest muscle car on the American Scene today.
