  Viper MAMBA Edition owner - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By David Z - January 14 - 3:16 am

  I have built supercharged camaros and nitros-fed builds as well. I have road raced and autocrossed all of my vehicles. The Viper is HANDS DOWN the best performing car I have ever driven and this also includes a supercharged C6 Vette. Fuel mileage is weaker when you race it and drive it hard. Otherwise, it has the fuel economy of a V8 in my opinion. It is comparable to my Camaro honestly. This car holds the road like nothing youll ever drive. The tires are actually wider than a Lamborghinis. I also work on the car myself and I have to say the build quality is superb. I am 62 so some more leg room would be nice, but oh well. PERFECT SPORTS CAR!!

  Torque...too much is almost enough - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Torque Lover - September 27 - 6:46 pm

  I have owned and driven my SRT-10 for one year now. I have owned and driven previous Vipers, Corvettes (Z06s included), Cobras, and supercharged F body vehicles. Without question, this vehicle wins hands down in every performance category imaginable. There is simply nothing better than feeling this cars 525 lb/ft of torque at your back. It is accentuated by the ability the vehicle has to actually grab the road. I have been more than impressed with build quality and interior design. Some of the SRTs flaws are undeniable: incredible heat flowing through the passenger cabin as well as a propensity to follow road surface flaws exactly. But I absolutely love my Viper.

  Car of my dreams - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Nei Stearns DMD - July 27 - 5:10 pm

  The most fun car Ive ever owned. I had a 2000 Corvette coupe and a 2002 Zo6 Vette.Both were great cars but felt like any normal car. The Viper give me the excitment and fun I was looking for! To drive this car makes you feel alive.This is a car that you have to drive and control. The power and acceleration reminds me of taking off on a jet airliner!

  Viper review - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By buckey - July 27 - 5:07 pm

  I purchased this auto after much consideration of whats available on the market for a superior performing and appearing, as well as convenient sports car. I also wanted a convertible to be able to have the open air feeling that accompanies that. This car has completely satisfied that objective and I can truthfully say that I have been completely happy with my choice.

  Love it - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Willard - June 18 - 1:55 am

  More power than you can imagine. A muscle car that needs no maintenance. It is truly a modern day hot rod. It is a mix of raw power and gut wrenching off the line thrust. Who would actually believe it gets over 20 miles per gallon on the highway? It does!

  This is an affordable exotic car. More power than you will ever know what to do with. So far, Ive had no troubles with the vehicle. It is truly a pleasure to drive, and will get you noticed everywhere you go.

  Kens Viper Review - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Ken - June 6 - 5:07 pm

  This is my second Viper. I had a 2002, the older body style convertible RT/10. Although I loved the 2002, the new Viper SRT/10 has some significant improvements, particularly in the exterior design and the interior. Performance, as with the 2002, is spine tingling.

  Itll knock your socks off! - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Ooomph - May 17 - 1:13 am

  Being a former Vette owner let me tell you there is NO comparison. This is a street legal race-car, period. Whether youre hunting TT Porsches, 360s or whatever, this car will easily even out the playing field. You want comfort? Buy a Caddy. If you want to make old ladies dive for the emergency lane as you pass at 65mph still in 1st gear, buy the Viper. This car may not be the fastest, quickest or slickest but it sure does rank high in all of those categories! How many other bone- stock American made cars will hit 160mph in 4th -- in less than a half- mile? I love my Bright Silver Metallic Viper SRT-10! (my wife hates it...jealousy!)

  Whooooa! - 2005 Dodge Viper
  By Brett - May 5 - 4:42 pm

  Ive owned my Dodge Viper SRT-10 for about 12 months now. Ive owned over 16 cars and this is by far the most powerful, awe-inspiring, attention getting, like you are at an amusement park fun to drive car I have ever experience. The value of this car when comparing price to performance is simply unbeatable. This in not an everyday driver, but is great fun on the weekends and coastal trips. For the automotive enthusiasts the Viper SRT-10 is a must have.
