Nice! IMO, those are the best looking Vipers ever made. They look so amazing in person (pictures do not do them justice)

I like the exterior design of this model better than the new vipers. The new ones look like the first gen, which I never liked.

Very nice viper, and great mods. I would like to own one some day I think.


For wheels I would do a set of HRE P40s.

nice car man.. question, how tall are you? I wonder if the ****pit is too big for me...im 5 10"... I drive a boxster.. love it, but i drove my stepdads boss 302 and loved that too, problem is the steering wheel and seats felt too big.

I debate jumping into a viper acr at some point... if it doesnt work I guess I'll stick with Porsche and go GT3

Im 6' Car was tight. But it was still relatively comfortable. Though I could never seem to get the steering wheel in the correct position maybe im too picky. I actually sold the viper last night. Wasnt a big fan, maybe it was just too raw. The interior just pained me to be in, cheap plastic and same setup as my moms Intrepid. Do yourself a favor and do the gt3.

Basically- Its just not a good overall drivers car. It only wants to run flat out all the time. The creeky plain plastic and brutal gearing wears on a guy whos coming from strictly german cars. The car sounds like a beast, but is by far the least defined sounding engine ever, its strictly just noise. If I was going to build up a 1/4 mile car, this would have been perfect that. Im sure there are people who love the Viper, just not I
