It's not a car, it's a lifestyle. The first time you drive one you'll learn what SRT® Viper owners already know. It's a consuming passion. You'll find yourself standing in the garage just staring at it. Your eyes follow the curves and character lines right into the driver's seat again. So you drive. And the world seems right again

It will capture your soul.

It's love at first bite. The legendary SRT® Viper is back with enough raw emotion and power that it will capture your soul.

The newly updated V-10 engine produces a heart-pumping 640 horsepower at 6,150 rpm and 600 pound-feet of torque at 4,950 rpm, the most of any naturally aspirated sports car in the world. The venerable Tremec TR6060 close-ratio six-speed manual transmission is standard on both the SRT Viper and SRT Viper GTS with closer gear ratios for better response. Shift throws have been reduced by 12.5 percent to improve performance, and a final-drive gear ratio of 3.55 to 1 produces new levels of top-speed performance.

Take the ride of your life.

The 2013 SRT® Viper is leaner, meaner and powers through corners with the precision of, well, a snake. Viper keeps a near-perfect 50/50 weight balance front to back and features a new, lighter and stiffer space-frame structure.

Stability control is a first on SRT Viper with four modes available on the GTS model: full on, sport, track and full off. SRT Viper produces sledgehammer launches with new standard steering-wheel-mounted launch control. Maximum acceleration with the push of a button.

Performance coil springs and two mode gas-charged aluminum body Bilstein® dampers with both a “Sport” mode and a “track" mode.
