"ONLY THOSE THINGS ARE BEAUTIFUL WHICH ARE INSPIRED BY MADNESS AND
WRITTEN BY REASON."
- Andre Gide
Coiled a mere 2.5 inches off the pavement, this snake would be
right at home in an OEM booth at a major auto show. Part of that
big-time appeal is by design, given the car's aggressive Copperhead
Orange paint, which, in 2006, was only applied to 51 coupes. That
surly pigment, inspired by the legendary Dodge concept car of the
same name, has been placed in the care of four meticulous owners
since new. Thanks in part to roughly $900 of 3M Clear Bra, that
2-stage still reflects a fantastic, wet-look finish. Naturally, fit
is exceptionally good, with composite body panels that show no
signs of age-related stress. And it all adds up to one seriously
capable supercar that'll show with the finest classics and run with
the fastest challengers!
Infusing the classic lines of Shelby's storied Cobra with the
modern flair of Dodge's svelte Stealth, the Viper has always
championed a revolutionary appearance. And with a few choice mods,
this ZB I coupe intensifies the profound. At the front of the car,
menacing Dodge crosshairs lead HID headlights, clear fog lamps and
an aggressive carbon fiber splitter. At the top of that grille, a
monochromatic Viper emblem fronts a functional Ram Air Hood that
features scale-like heat extractors. Behind that hood, pristine
glass, reflected in body-matched mirrors, caps aggressively
sculpted doors that are aligned with subtle cove stripes and
brilliant "VIPER SRT 10" badging. Beneath those doors, aftermarket
rockers, tailored to factory side-pipes, flow in to super wide
quarters that are dotted with a glossy fuel filler and smoked
marker lamps. And at the back of the car, smoked taillights split
the difference between a flush Hennessey diffuser and a big
Hennessey wing.
TEN IS BETTER THAN EIGHT
The monster rumbling under this Dodge's massive hood needs no
introduction. Displacing 8.3 liters, and rolling out of the factory
with an impressive 500 horsepower and 525 lb./ft. of torque, this
506 cubic inch beast is one of the most outrageous powerplants ever
created! That said, for a car that looks like it should represent
Fiat Chrysler at SEMA, that simply wasn't good enough. So, in 2009,
the big mill was subjected to a $16K overhaul at the hands of
Auburn Hills, Michigan's Arrow Racing Engines. That rebuild
followed a polished Paxton supercharger with Diamond pistons,
Crower roller rockers, Oliver Ultra Lite connecting rods and a
forged bottom-end. Those upgrades play well with a high performance
radiator, a Mopar Performance oil pan and high performance AEM
engine management. The juice is supplied by an upgraded fuel
system, which mixes RSI rails with twin 450LPH Walbro pumps and
1,000cc Injector Dynamics fuel injectors. Breathing is greatly
improved by Belanger Tri-Y headers. And tuning was performed by
Racing Solutions of Plano, Texas. Naturally, the car's tidy engine
bay looks immaculate, from its Copperhead valve covers to its
custom, lighted hood inlay. And, according to its seller, this
Dodge currently spins 861 rear-wheel horsepower into 801 lb./ft. of
torque.
LOW PRODUCTION, LOW STANCE
Crawl under the car and you'll find a virtually spotless chassis
that utilizes a Tremec T56 6-speed to spin a sturdy Dana
differential around mild, 3.07 gears. That proven drivetrain rolls
in a fully adjustable Penske suspension. Power rack-and-pinion
steering ensures turn-in is light and constantly engaging. At the
corners, Copperhead Orange calipers utilize factory power-assist to
clamp a quartet of vented rotors. Rowdy Corsa exhaust takes the
soundtrack from soothing to brutal with the stomp of a foot. And
power pounds the pavement via professionally powder-coated
H-spokes, which twist 275/35ZR18 Nitto Invos in front of 345/30ZR19
Nitto Invos.
CUSTOMIZED COMFORT
Over the years, the Viper has quietly grown its brash, bare bones
cockpit into a driving environment that's truly worthy of its
outrageous performance and incredible aesthetics. And inside this
coupe, that theme of conservative showmanship is elevated by choice
customization. Bolstered bucket seats complement 2-tone leather
with French-stitched Viper emblems. In front of those seats, a
silver-trimmed dash hangs white-face telemetry, complete with
Innovate Motorsports accessory gauges, above a Pioneer CD player
and adjustable foot pedals. Beneath that dash, a broad console
plants a B&M Short Shifter next to a leather-wrapped emergency
brake and switches for factory power windows. In front of the
driver, a Viper-branded steering wheel laps a tilting column that's
finished with a Valentine One radar locator. And those components
are framed in clean carpet, 2-tone door panels and a tight
headliner.
