Car of the Month
2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 Convertible
When the first production Vipers arrived on showroom floors in 1992, the public took notice and were in awe of its 400 hp V10 power plant and aggressive looks. With Carroll Shelby’s involvement in its design and its raw power, it was compared to the Shelby 427 Cobra. A true muscle car with a sports car profile amazed some but intimidated others.
