Dodge Viper | Super Car or Garbage Truck?

We review and discuss the 2009 Gen 4 Dodge Viper with 600HP and 560TQ V10. We talked about the evolution, development, and all of the technical details on why you would want to buy one of the few modern American Super Cars. We don't hold back and show the good and bad of this generation.
With Hellcats and now the Ram TRX roaming the street, the Viper is still the FCA king.

The Viper engine is not based on the truck V10; it's the other way around. Viper came out in 1992, first V10 truck was 1994. Both started as an extra cylinder on the LA-block V8 with a longer stroke, but beyond this concept, the two diverge. The Viper V10 really torched a lot of its V8 roots in the aluminum conversion, whereas the Magnum tried to use 5.9/5.2 parts wherever possible. In the end, basically nothing can be swapped between the two. But still, the Viper did it first.

These things (ACR, especially) were competing with cars 2-3x the price on the track. And it crushed most of them. Ditching luxuries for average Chrysler interior quality of the time was perfectly excusable. There is a reason the gen 5 was so much more expensive (gen 4s also had decent discounts off sticker when new).

Ok, but Corvettes and Vipers are not bargains, it's just German and Italian sport cars are overpriced by design for "exclusivity" which is very important for the douchebags who buy them and drive then 500 miles a year.

@matrinezkevin11492 2 жыл бұрын

@@truantray 100% true. Though Vipers and, to a lesser degree, Vettes are engineered by people with extensive racing experience. You can build some pretty damn wild home made autocross rides but FCA and GM are so far the only ones offering you that experience, with a warranty at a comparably affordable price. If track days are your reason to get a high performance car, skip the poser stuff like the Huracan or McLaren and grow a pair and drive an ACR. There's a reason every time a former race car driver drives a gen 5 ACR they gush about them unlike any other production car out there. They were designed by pro racers to tick all the boxes a pro racer would want in a street legal car.

@hickyricky5913 2 жыл бұрын

If you compare the gen 5, even the ACR, to what they've beaten on tracks, its incredible. Sure, the Viper ACR 5th gen is in the 6 figures, but its near the bottom of the barrel levels of cost. Vettes are a close second, but remember... the ACR is beating the shit out of what the Vettes can barely compete against... which is not to say anything against the Vettes, in fact, it just proves Vettes are insane value for performance and arguably better in terms of interiors and drivability. If anything, the ACR is what a Vette would be if Dodge's tunnel-vision was the mindset behind the engineering of a car for the purpose. Think about it, the Challenger is the last true Muscle Car standing, where it does not give a fuck about corners, while the Vipers of any generation, trim, what have you, are meant to be driven seriously around corners and does not give a damn about the driver's comfort, let alone safety (in fact, sitting in one is so unbearable as it forces you to sit in an awkward fashion).

I just bought a 2001 Viper GTS and drove it 425 miles home from where I picked it up. So, I have some saddle time. I appreciate what these guys are saying about the Viper with respect to the interior and what have you. Offset pedals? Try driving a Pantera or 1960s Lamborghini. Objectionable interior? Same with many performance cars, like an F40. You just accept or forgive those omissions for what the car delivers. So, I do not share the overly harsh criticism, but understand where it comes from. Want cup holders, blah, blah, blah... buy a Corvette. Hey, nothing wrong with Corvettes!

I drove one during a Skip Barber school at Road America more than 10 years ago. Very difficult car to drive fast. Rear end wanted to rotate worse than an mid 80's 911. I am in awe of any driver that can drive one fast on track.

I’ve always been amazed how quiet the Viper V10 is, especially compared to a Corvette V8. It’s like the “imbalanced” firing order of the V10 is inherently smoother than a small block V8. It doesn’t scream, hardly even shouts.

I just wanted to say that videos like these are just so cool and the review on the super high performance older cars that I can potentially actually own at some point is exactly the kind of stuff I want to watch. Loved the 09 CTSV review and you guys are spot on with what it is and also how absolutely atrocious the automatic transmission is but I still enjoy it thanks guys!

My favorite car since my childhood, it's so nineties and it's gorgeous. My dad even gave me a 1:18 scale model, that blue one with the white stripes on the top. Thanks a lot for the video Geese.

I love driving my Gen 1 every weekend. I also drove it from CT to western NY in one day and it was perfectly comfortable. It's a blast, with no downside other than the gas mileage (which it doesn't have). ;)

Fantastic video as always guys. Loved watching this. Never knew about the pedal box arrangement. I think I could forgive its one dimension approach if the engine sounded better. Easily the most interesting suspension up on the rack to not see subframes.

I learned performance driving in the Viper with the Skip Barber Program! They used the Vipers for years to instruct with and they were quite the handful as no ABS, no Traction or Stability, just you. It was probably the best car to learn in as it was always ready to swap ends with power on oversteer. Great times were had with this car.

Loved it! Definitely looked at these before I bought my C5Z. Either way, both would have been regrets. 90s/early2000s cars are just full of electronic gremlins! Your 392 scatpack challenger video popped up after this one, and now to me, after selling my C5Z, looks like the next affordable American Sports Car I would like to own! Loved the purple on the 392, too. My dad's family owned a purple 1970 Dodge Challenger back in the day, they bought it brand new off the showroom floor. A couple years later my Aunt's boyfriend totaled it when he was drunk (luckily noone was hurt). That car is worth 2 million $USD today, too bad it was destroyed!

Every car has a certain niche of people that enjoy it for what it is. When someone who is not a fan evaluates it based on a personal criteria it will not measure up. If I needed soft leather to comfort my ass and paddle shifters to move my car then spending 3X more seems to be the right thing to do. There are more Lambo people doing car shows and weekend driving than tracking. IMHO.
