Re: Breaking news

Not selling well? Or are they just planning on replacing it with the Firepower?

Re: Breaking news

That ME412 can't possibly replace the Viper. IF it went into production, it would be in Veyron price range I'll bet. It'd be cool, but not at all something Chrysler can afford to do.

Re: Breaking news

I'd be willing to bet the Firepower is more in their gunsights.

Re: Breaking news

I would agree. They'd almost have to replace it with something. They can't give that whole niche to Chevy and Ford. They need a flagship.

Re: Breaking news

I like the Viper. Don't have the money for a new yet, but I like it just the same.

Re: Breaking news

I have heard that Chrysler was coming
out with something to compete against
the Z06 Vette. I had heard that the power
plant was going to be a 6.4L Hemi.
Well over 500hp and 500 trq. Just what
I heard. Who knows!
