Only 640 hp? WTF
Ferrari will always have the top ADVERTISED HP in FIAT, BUT look at the torque curve, both the shape and the area under the curve!!! It will clean Ferrari's clock. Look at the weight compared to Ferrari. Put them both on a dyno!!! Ferrari will be low, Viper will be high. Lastly, IMO there's...- I Bin Therbefor

F12 Benchmark for the Gen V?
There is no doubt that companies have limited performance of certain models to increase the sales of others. The Porsche Boxter being handicapped to favor the 911 is probably the prime exam ple. IMO, the Ferrari hp rating will be the tops for the FIAT company BUT that doesn't mean squat! In...- I Bin Therbefor

Viper Philosophy
I can't quantify this BUT I hold that the first gen Viper could be identified by one world "RAW." There was a rawness about the performance and styling. I suppose you could add the word brutal. A "brutal rawness." Like the early Ferrari street cars which were usually just rebodied racers that...- I Bin Therbefor

And now...leaked Gen 5 hood molds?
"You see, Zagato’s TZ3 Stradale is an Alfa Romeo bodied sports car based on the platform and mechanical hardware of the track-conquering Dodge Viper ACR, which features the same 600HP 8.4-liter V10 engine as the standard Viper SRT-10 along with a 6-speed manual gearbox and a race-spec...- I Bin Therbefor

If you look at the hood on the Alfa TZ3 Stradale (Viper powered) you can see the initial inspiration for the Viper hood shown here radiator exhausts and all.- I Bin Therbefor

new viper hot wheels car
IMO, the Hot Wheels Viper is exactly that, the Hot Wheels model of the new Viper. When Hot Wheels scales a car down to Hot Wheels size a lot of things happen. Materials require thickness of parts that is not a scale down of the "real thing". Example, the front splitter on the model. Scale...- I Bin Therbefor

2013 Gen5 Speculation... What We Know... What We Think ?
Viper persons; A few wishes: Take a look at the Ferrari FF awd arrangement. There is a simple, light weight, awd design in a front-mid chassis that would easily adapt to the Viper chassis. It would need considerable beefing to handle the torque, but would work quite nicely. Better...- I Bin Therbefor

Back after LOOONG Absence
IMO, as a halo car, the Viper's job is to generate LUST. Even if a person can't afford a Viper, you want them to LUST after a Viper; dream about owning a Viper. You want stands full of fans chanting, Viper! Viper! Viper! And that means an active and successful racing program. You want a physical...- I Bin Therbefor
