    1 and 2: Sorry - it's too early to discuss performance numbers 3: Too soon to say. Suspension tuning is not yet finalized. 4: Yes, we considered it. Never say never. 5: Launch control is not adjustable. 6: The halfshafts might tolerate 1000 HP with a 1.5 final drive!

    Yes there will be a 2013 brochure and we will sell it on http://www.srtshop.com/welcome.asp. Thanks for the complement on the 2010 book. We actually won a national marketing award for that book.

    Less plastic and more high quality materials. Both the SRT and GTS will be hand wrapped. SRT will be wrapped in a high quality PUR and GTS will come in two different leather (Nappa and Laugna Soft leather) How will the SRT interior differ from the GTS interior? How will the Gen V appeal to...

    For the time being, development of the Pirelli tires was focused only on the Gen 5 Viper.

    1) Slightly more 2) Didn't measure the show car. Too soon to tell you. 3) Aftermarket height adjustable coilovers. 4) When Ralph says we can!

    F8L, We should never say never, but we have discussed this possibility and for now, this is not something we are planning. The VENOM controller does not use the same software or architecture as the rest of the company so it would be a significant project for now. We are however talking more...

    The certificate program was a really big problem for us in the past and is part of the reason why a lot of dealers decided to get out of the Viper business. What we are looking at doing is having VCA members put their up-to-date VCA number in their order, then we will move you to the front of...

    1. The battery is packaged in same same location but in the truck pan below a false floor. 2. The same plug are used as in gen 4 a re10 pmc5 champion plug which may last up to 100k miles.

    George, We've been very happy with the Visco-Lok introduced in the Gen IV. It hooks up when it needs to and gives good bite on corner exit. Best of all... It will never set a check engine light. We have done development with active diffs in the past and our Grand Cherokee uses one with...

    Bob, The Gen V intake will physically fit however the new Gen V cylinder heads have an additional machining operation for captured torque limiters that are needed to ensure the composite isn’t cracked or broken during installation. These limiters could be removed and the intake could be bolted...

    We have a new supplier for the paint. All the panels still come into the plant pre-painted. There are multiple wheels with multiple finishes. Depending on what you get, it can be powdered or liquid paint. Everything is cleared. We have very specific aero targets for handling performance. As...

    The Gen V window regulator has been updated with improvements to the cable, cable run, and slides. In addition, we have designed the door to make it easier to install at the plant, reducing the possibility of damage during installation. Also, we added flexibility in adjustment.

    1. The battery is located in the trunk compartment beneath a panel. Similar location to the Gen3/Gen4 but the battery is not exposed through the rear fascia opening anymore. BTW - it's 5 pounds lighter! 2. Single platinum tip plugs, should be good for 100k miles 3. Man, you guys have some...

    The previous, as you put it, "useless" 6th gear was for fuel economy. We increased the axle ratio and adjusted the trans ratios with tighter spacing. This put top speed in top gear, where God intended it!

    We are still finalizing the exhaust tuning on the Gen V. It will change from Gen 4 in a good way, which is a challenge considering pass-by noise requirements!

    1) We kept 18" wheels at the front to minimize rotating, unsprung mass 2) The large, plastic coil covers on the Gen V are actually lighter than the smaller, aluminum coil covers on the Gen IV. In addition, they isolate undesirable noises from the engine such as injector tick. Our goal was to...
