2013 SRT Viper is Still Mean, Now Beautiful Too: 2012 NY Auto Show

[AutoGuide.com]

If there's one car that we've been looking forward to seeing at this year's New York Auto Show, more than any other, it's the next generation Viper. Very nearly sold off during Chrysler's turbulent years under Cerberus, like any great icon, it managed to endure.

Not only that, but even before the last fourth generation SRT 10 examples were rolling out the door, a plan was underway to introduce a new one; an American super car re-imagined for the 21st century. Now it's been revealed to the world for the first time.

Ralph Gilles, President and CEO of Chrysler's Street and Racing Technology Brand perhaps summed it up best. "Beyond being the flagship for the new SRT brand, the launch of the 2013 Viper proves that we simply would not let the performance icon of the Chrysler Group die," he said to raucous reception. Indeed.

[SRT-4 THE WIN]

I like it but the front end almost reminds me of a Maserati.

[gski4life]

The front reminds me off a Ferrari 599 and a kit car of some sort...and a viper center scoop......then the rear looks like a aston martin and a 2012 Mercedes CLS

Either way im waiting on the track and dyne results.....and the battle between it and the c6 or upcoming c7

Looks beautiful but what's the performance specifications..

[Vipercar93]

I like it! It has the sexy curves of the 96 GTS.

From what I have read it's an 8.4 liter that makes 640HP and 600ft-lbs. In the GTS-R spec they had to reduce the engine to 8 liters and had to run an intake restrictor to conform to racing specs.

Damn..that thing looks pretty bad ass

[jotajota9288]

It does have a Maserati look and I love the exhaust.

[srt-4um]

I can't wait to see one on the road, seeing pictures is good and all but nothing like seeing this beauty in person on the road

[Blood_Shot]

for sure waiting for the battle of the american supercars after this one hits the road

[Nafter]

The most torquiest naturally aspirated production car ever built.
That about sums it up, along with 333 wide tires.
