2003 Dodge Viper
The Dodge Viper is one of those cars that you really
don't have to say much about. It is America's high-performance
champ, the type of vehicle that mothers don't want their
sons driving. All you have to do is take a glance at
what results from the Viper's unbelievable 500-horsepower
engine: performance targets of 0-60 mph in less than
four seconds; a top speed of 190 mph; 60-0 braking in
less than 100 feet; 0-100-0 mph in 13.2 seconds and
1.15g lateral acceleration.
Every facet of the 2003 Viper follows the maxim of
high-octane performance. It features competition-tuned
independent suspension, huge tires and wheels for maximum
grip, oversized brakes for stopping power, a big-block
505 cubic-inch engine driving the rear wheels and a
two-seat cockpit. The 2003 Viper is available in a new
SRT-10 two-door convertible configuration.
Under the Hood
Without further ado, here are the specs. The engine
responsible for the Viper's ridiculous power is an 8.3-liter
V10 (yes, that's right - V10) that pumps the 500 horsepower
out at 5600 rpm and delivers 525 lb-ft of torque at
4200 rpm. 6-speed manual transmission lets drivers feel
the power surge up through their hands.
The 2003 Viper features a multitude of new features
to increase performance levels from last year. An aluminum
suspension system has been revised to give the Viper
a smoother ride, while its weight has been decreased
by 100 pounds. For safety, the Viper has dual front
airbags, antilock 4-wheel disc brakes and an emergency
inside trunk release.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
The 2003 Viper has a new roofline profile with an easy-to-operate
drop top. The clamshell top has a single center latch
to make it a true convertible. Comfort comes standard
with power, as the interior of the Viper is decked out
with an array of features. Air conditioning, power steering,
tilt leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-adjustable
pedals, leather/faux-suede upholstery, front bucket
seats, center console, power mirrors, windows and door
locks, remote keyless entry, AM/FM radio with 6-disc
CD changer, digital clock and tachometer are all provided.
The 2003 Dodge Viper also features a traditional push-button
starter that fires up the mammoth engine. Quite simply
one of the fastest vehicles you'll find on city streets,
the 2003 Dodge Viper has more power than you will ever
need.
