Overview

The 2016 Dodge Viper makes for an excellent contender in the midsize coupe. With 5 trims on offer, the Dodge Viper coupe has a base MSRP of $87,895, with prices going all the way up to MSRP $118,795, competing directly with the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. As things are, the Viper proposes a very unique offering from the American carmaker’s stable. To match this kind of performance, one has to sheel out more for the likes of the Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe and the Jaguar F-type R. Only an 8.4L V10 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. Together, they produce 646 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 3.6 seconds, the Viper maintains a combined fuel economy of 15 MPG. Dodge offers the Viper in 14 stunning colors, with the Stryker Orange Tri-Coat Pearl being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

If you're looking for value when purchasing the 2016 Dodge Viper, we suggest you pick the Viper GT trim that adds improved features such as upgraded brake rotors, two-mode driver-adjustable dampers, a six-way power driver seat, and many other features not including the optional features.
