Dodge Viper RT/10 Concept Car

Описание: At the 1989 Detroit North American International Auto Show, the first Dodge Viper RT/10 Concept Car was shown. Whether this is the one from 1989 or not, this design prototype - a red sporty Dodge Viper RT/10 Concept Car - could show off all its glory in these studio beauty shots. Caroll Shelby was still associated with Chrysler, and endorsed the Viper. By 1992 this new sports car, the Dodge Viper RT/10 was available to the public at a price tag of $55,630.

According to Edmunds Inside Line, "Right after it secured $1.2 billion in loans backed by the full faith and treasury of the United States government in 1979, Chrysler set about the serious business of building very lucrative and very uninteresting vehicles. First there were the original front-drive 1981 K-Cars (Dodge Aries and Plymouth Reliant) that were boxier than most boxes and so dull that even public utility fleet managers wished they had more pizzazz. Then came variations on the K-Car platform ranging from the revolutionary (the brilliant 1984 Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager minivans) to the agonizingly forgettable (1985 Plymouth Caravelle). Sure, Chrysler was able to rapidly pay back those loans and return to profitability, but the corporation was boring itself to death. Then came the Viper. . . . the Viper was everything the K-Cars weren't; sleek, ludicrously impractical, blatantly provocative and ridiculously fast thanks to a massive 8.0-liter overhead-valve V10." . . . The Viper Concept was nothing less than a sensation, with show crowds mesmerized by the sheer spectacle of a car so defiantly out of step with political correctness. This wasn't some sort of alternate-fuel vehicle pointing the way to a diminished future, but a beast looking to feast on fossil fuel and fry rubber."
