Dodge Viper

The Dodge Viper, introduced in 1993, is the American version of a Fantasy Car. Featuring the largest engine among the Car Evolution on this site, and one of the largest to be fitted in a production car ever, an 8.0lt unit producing more than 400bhp and a much more impressive amount of torque (662Nm).

The Viper has been praised for its direct race car feel and it surely is not a game to play with. How, anyway could a car with more than 400 bhp driving the rear wheels only and without any type of electronic help be a game to play with?

Viper's muscle car design is fully justified given that it is directed, primarily, for the American market. Various different versions have appeared during the last years after the initial RT/10 Model
