Dodge’s most successful, in your face American muscle car the Viper has sold 25,000 units since it’s launch about 17 years ago. Dodge has stated that the 25,000th Viper would roll out of it’s Conner Avenue assembly plant on 12th March along with festivities and some bubbly. NASCAR Sprint Cup driver Kurt Busch would be the lucky guy getting the keys to the factory fresh 2008 Viper SRT-10 ACR.

The Viper has carried on it’s shoulders the image of being a re-born American muscle car since its inception in 1991. Critics would tell you though that the Viper is one difficult car to take to the extreme and would bite your head off if you even blink more. What the Viper did give muscle car enthusiasts was raw power, lots of torque, straight line speed and looks to match, in a package which even today starts at $87,000, much lower than what a European car of comparison would cost.
