Advanced aerodynamics package

[2006red/whitecoupe]

Not in the loop here, I was pricing out a '13 at edmunds and they list this option [late availability] carbon fiber front splitter and carbon fiber rear spoiler.....any one know what this is? if there is a photo or thread on this i missed it.

There was a video of the Yellow Mule at Sema with it installed. Gives you a look of the splitter and the spoiler.

As per Viper Smith. See www.driveSRT.com and look at pricing for 2013 viper. Will not be available until the first quarter of 2013 or later.

One additional note, I am not sure this improves performance to a significant degree. No data out there. Improves downforce......but not like a ACR wing.

And on that note, here is some info I recall.

Stock Gen IV coupe - 100 pounds of downforce @150mph
Gen IV Aero coupe - 600 pounds of downforce @ 150mph
Gen IV ACR coupe - 1000 pounds of downforce @ 150mph
Stock Gen V coupe - ??? pounds of downforce @ 150mph
Gen V Aero coupe - 300 pounds of (additional?) downforce @ 150mph and 500 pounds @ top speed

Id have to think the stock Gen V would have more downforce than the stock Gen IV coupe. Everything else I have read and seen mentioned a Gen V will be better on the track than a Gen IV, including tweets from Ralph.

Gen IV ACR advantage? I am curious if the (sole?) advantage downforce, is enough to make up for all the other advantages the Gen V has.. Weight, power, driveline, gearing, driver aids and suspension.

With that, I still think the Gen IV ACR is the most bad ass looking Viper to roll off the line yet!
