Backing up the 2006 Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coupe’s good looks is an 8.3-liter, 510-horsepower engine with 535-lb.-ft. of tire smoking torque. Capable of 0-60 mph acceleration in less than four seconds, the Viper tops out, if you dare, at 190 miles per hour. You know you’re in for a thrill ride just from the sound of the idle. Rumbling like a custom Harley, the Viper begs to move forward, bucking like a wild bronco if you try and baby it. Once in motion, the car is docile until you press the go pedal. Torque takes over and your insides feel like they are two blocks behind you. Let off the gas, and the Viper SRT-10 cracks, pops and rumbles like a racecar running straight pipes.
