Description

Few cars in the history of the autoverse have the power to elicit a visceral response from non-enthusiast passers-by. Typically reserved for Italian exotics and hypercars, only a handful of vehicles can turn heads and quicken heart rates just by the mere sight of them. All it takes is one look at this first-generation 1993 Dodge Viper, and it's easy to see that this swoopy, low-slung domestic supercar is on that very elite shortlist. With just 24,930 actual miles on its odometer, this sinewy slithering snake comes decked out in its original Viper red paint.

Inside, this venomous vehicle proudly shows off its Spartan ethos. A tall center console separates a pair of surprisingly comfy and very supportive grey leather bucket seats. A three-spoke airbag-less steering wheel sits just ahead of a white-faced 180 mph speedometer and 7,000 rpm tachometer. An AM/FM cassette player feeds sound to large central speakers mounted between the seats. While not factory-installed, this Neo-Cobra comes with air-conditioning installed sometime after it rolled off the assembly line, giving this Viper a rarely seen feature.

Under that massive front-hinged clamshell hood, we find an equally massive 8.0-liter overhead valve V-10 engine. Originally making 400 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque from the factory, which sounds incredible bellowing through those throwback side pipes. That big block power is funneled through a six-speed manual transmission before being sent out to the stock Viper rear end fitted with 3.07 rear gears that transfer that plethora of ponies to a set of three-spoke 17-inch Viper wheels shod in steamroller-sized 335/35ZR-17 Pilot Sport rubber, while a set of 275/40ZR-17 Michelins handles steering duties up front.

When it debuted, this 1993 Dodge Viper could sprint from 0-60 mph in a scant 4.5 seconds and rip through the quarter mile in 12.6 seconds at 114 mph on its way to a top speed of 165 mph. Riding on a fully independent suspension, this wicked whip sports coilovers at all four corners.
