Wouldn't be too shocked if they take the V10 out the Viper and drop this in instead, with a slight tune of course.
Wouldn't be a viper without the V10.

I wouldn't be surprised if they bolt the supercharger on top of the viper V10 though.

Well, it's hardly trying to be a stripped out track special.

Mmm, Sublime Green.

Me too.
Likewise, but even the American mags reckon it's a dragster with limited ability to get you 'round a corner! biggrin

Love it, it sticks two fingers up to anything conventional. Its in a shouty green, weighs as much as a boat and can spin its wheels above 60. What's not to like? cool

We have had the Germans doing their power one one-upmanship for a while, but cant remember anything starting with a seven for bhp available, especially when that may be pessimistic.

If anything nine secs to 100 seems slightly underwhelming for that much power, I know a GTR is a different beast but it manages six something with 550 bhp, I bet it is actually quicker than nine secs to 100.

It is ages since a power output made me raise an eyebrow.

David Charles? more like Ray Charles.

Big car with big supercharged engine is heavy shocker.

This and the Viper ant the 2 american cars that I really like.

Indeed. They have already said that the Hellcat motor won't fit in the viper.

My dear wife has a sublime Challenger SRT, but only the 480 (US) hp version. Fun, but not the most reliable of beasts. As a result I get emails from Dodge - for those who might be interested, there's a Hellcat telephone ringtone available for download here:
