As has been said, Viper is a niche product. It is also the highest priced of it's direct competitors. Performance wise it is an equal, depending on who is driving and who is reviewing. I think pricing and the POOR (generally) dealer network - for an $100k+ car, will hamper it. Time will tell but, I can't see a "market" for more than 1200 cars a year. BTY, I've had six Vipers beginning with an 99 ACR thru the new TrakPac car I have in my garage now. Allan
Agreed with the max market of 1200 cars per year. The issues been beat and I don't enjoy stirring the *** any longer...but without something to blow people out of the water such as 700+HP, etc. at launch I don't see the Viper picking up much market share. It should still outsell the Gen III/IV. The quality upgrade is great but the reality is it was necessary to keep the brand ALIVE. It was not enough to launch the brand forward. Then again, time will tell.
