For those who love cars this car can't help but put a smile on your face. It's exhilarating but also something that needs to be respected. If you make a mistake in this car, it will sure let you know it.
The Viper was probably the one car in particular that got me liking muscle cars the first place. As a 10 yr old, it looked very sharp and cool. It still is!
I don't even need to finish this video to know that I'm gonna need this Viper in my life and on my driveway!!! But for tge TH-cam algorithm I'll watch the entire video!! Awesome car, every single gen was epic and this one absolutely looks the part!!! Catching up on the weekend videos here. Man, Joe, you and Lori and Steven sure know how to crank out videos like no one else!!!
We all can pick these vipers up for 50-65k. This dealership is ridiculous. These cars are all low mileage. No one drove or drives these type of cars more than 2-3,000 miles a year on average. Especially if they are owned outside of Texas, California and Florida. My neighbor has a RT10 from 1996. It has 68,000 miles. We’re in NY so he doesn’t take it out of the garage 7 months out of the year. Tell your friends at the dealership they’re lucky there’s still pandemic pricing for cars. ie a 2023 civic type R that sells for 70K. Nice video as always
You clearly don’t know anything about the Viper market… you are delusional lol. Find me a 3rd or 4th gen with under 5k miles for under 80k. Most are going for 90-100k with more miles than this one. And yes people put miles on vipers. (2 time viper owner) this isn’t news, vipers have been rising since summer of 2019. And they’ll stay there!
@@Youcallthesebagels_ you are in a class by yourself bro. You and your circle of friends are not the entire USA Population. Remember that. There are plenty of vipers at 50-65K pre covid. Don’t compare todays and yesterdays numbers. A fukn Civic Type R 2023 is selling for 70K.
Completely disagree... Its basically selling for a discount considering the low miles and inflation! Just the 10% from this year would put the car @ 100k.
This had always been my dream car as a kid, and was wondering if you'd ever do a video on one. You happened to do my exact favorite color, and everything. Thank you Sir!
That statement you made is so true. Any car show that I have been to with exotics the Viper always seems to get the most attention. When you see it you know it's a Viper.
Someone in my neighborhood has one exactly like this. It's such a beautiful car. My personal favorite is the first gen coupe GTS in red with the racing stripes and gold wheels.
He’s right about your frontal cortex melting. Bought a gen 1, 1993 after a red eye flight back from Vegas probably still drunk on a whim. Amazing experience but not very functional with no door handles, windows or a roof. I regret selling it though.
Viper's have an insane amount of grip. Grip is not the issue, people who have no idea how to drive 400, 500, 600hp cars without electronic systems holding your hand is the problem.
I just got rid of my 21' Supra a few months ago too buy a 2006 Viper vert. Yes it told a story of when cars didn't feel like rolling computers. It just felt sooo good to drive.
i had a 2019 dodge charger scat pack. when i first bought it i was terrified of it for about 2 months. i never really got used to just how fast that car was. and this viper is even scarier. completely understand lol. 👍🏻🇺🇸
There were some good deals on these on the used market, but in the last 6 years they have exploded in value and will continue to do so. The ultimate alpha vehicle, manual trans, massive torque, no frills interior.
Yeah it was crazy. Gen 2 and 3s were in the 30s/40s and gen 1s in the 20s for a long time. Glad I snagged mine when I did because they were way undervalued for too long.
Cue the my muscle theme from NFS Carbon,where the C6 Z06 and the Viper SRT-10 were the best cars in the muscle category. I was snacking while the on throttle action was going on and boy oh boy this viper makes my heart pitter patter of joy,and joes on throttle reactions are just the icing on this SRT-10 Cake. Amazing review and amazing camera work as always Steven and just like always;I’ll see you on the next ride. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
The Dodge Viper is my all-time favorite car (specifically the 4th and 5th generations). Its reputation makes it special, just like the Porsche Carrera GT.
These Vipers are just insanely beautiful but the dealer upcharges are unacceptable. Just buying a brand new cars without paying for a 5K-10K markup is just ridiculous (but in a bad way). I love how this Viper looks like so far, Joe! Joe, you should definitely consider getting a Viper if you can!
Thank you for bringing us the true sports car amazing review you inspire me to get back into the car scene your reviews are like no others Very respectfully FromMr Robert
I had a 95 rt/10 it was a last 300 side exhaust car. Had borla exhaust, 19/20 inch hre 3pc forged aluminum wheels, smooth tubes and ported heads. Was an animal. Wish I never sold it
Would be real nice to own both the Viper and Z06. But if I had to choose one it would be the Z06. Weighs less, faster quarter, faster 0-60, better interior
You're not wrong with the statistics. But here is one you may not be aware of. In 2017 alone, there were more Corvettes made than in the entire 25 year production history of the Viper. I mean, if you WANT to be like everyone else... Personally, I didn't.
Gotta love watching your videos where 3 pedals are involved. I would like to see if you're able to review a 340i with a manual, there's not too many out there but i think they're bargains right now since they're basically baby M3s
It's one of the best-looking sports cars ever made. I've acquired a taste for curves lately, and only a few designs pull it off well. Porsches, Audis and VWs from a couple of generations ago, A/C Cobras, and of course the Viper to name a few. Curves stand the test of time.
Vipers are timeless classics and legendary for their stock performance. Won't see anything like them built again. They're the Terminator Cobra of the Dodge brand
I've always wanted a 96' GTS, I'd totally pet this 3rd gen snake wearing the best Viper livery ever. This gen is looking better and better in time. I'm sure this livery is pulling a price premium over comparable snakes.
I've rented 40-50 vipers in my life drove them all like I stole them never put a scratch on one deff love vipers but ultimately I went for a b7 rs4 audi instead for the reason it does everything unreal and is insane rare as well but dodge viper rule for what they are!!!!!
Great review you talk with such pride for the viper but I'm sorry to correct you the 2006 Dodge viper is the only year for the Gen 3 vipers that has 510 horsepower and 535 lb foot of torque which makes the 2006 the most unique
I owned that exact car. I lived in central Pennsylvania at the time and I found a dealer in Ohio that had one. Only 200 were produced in blue with white stripes. I paid somewhere around $85000 for it.
I enjoy your commentary on the Dodge viper but I must inform you as a Dodge viper owner I must correct you the 2006 Dodge viper is the last year of the 3rd generation and it's the only year that has 510 horsepower and 535i foot pounds of torque the prior Year's in gen 3 with 500 horsepower would 525 ft lb of torque that's what makes the 2006 very unique.
Love me some viper! Never got to ride in one, but I did get to ride in a C6 Z06 with a pro driver during the chevy power tour if anyone remembers that, and what a blast! (I was nowhere near winning the autocross in those cobalt SS's)
Hey Joe just wanted to say I’ve been a follower since you had around 30k subs. Lemme be the first to congratulate you on your way to 1 MILLION subscribers. We Love You and Lori! 💜🌹🔥☘️🇺🇸☝️
Carroll Shelby had actually nothing to do with the Viper aside with being persuaded to help pitch the idea to Iacocca. The Viper was the baby of Bob Lutz and Tom Gale along Dick Winkles, Roy Sjoberg, Francois Castaing, and 21 others with the requirement of racing experience. It was not originally sanctioned by Chrysler/Iacocca, it was developed in secret with ~$50 million dollar budget, which is absurd compared to what companies will spend on R&D on new and even updated existing models.
If it wasn't for the availability of the automatic transmission on the Z06,I'd be hard-pressed to choose a favorite. As it stands,there's just no comparison between these two. Price is also a factor, as you can find a Z06 from $30,000. Hey Joe,since we're going back in time just a bit for comparison,could you please do a comparison between the 2020 Buick Regal GS and the more recent Kia Stinger GT?
Wow Joe, this is a dandy of a car but while it lacks in technology by modern standards this is truely the Apostle to the American muscle cars but 5500 miles, child's play.
LOL, I love how happy Joe is On-Throttle in this thing! Brings a smile to all of our faces.
I really appreciate you letting me share it with you!
On Throttle is Joe's Therapy 😂
And I don't blame him.

not nearly as deserving of respect as a +1000cc sportsbike but sure, its always best to take precautions
@@DanFromIran I ride too and know what that's like.
This VIPER is wonderful....when they came out I remember the VIPER being so powerful, it was almost dangerous.....Thanks Joe.

Not a chance😂😂
The most collectible muscle car will be the Honda Civic 👌🏾
It will. Considering history and future plans, it keeps going up. People like you need omega 3s.

No replacement for displacement!! Great video great car Joe and Lori!
You better believe it Eric!
It's called forced induction. That is the replacement
Joe your energy and enthusiasm was on another level in this video!
This is by far my favourite generation of viper. The early-mid 2000s feel is just something else
Trust me I totally get it!
@hey it's pete *my* favourite. Also, this generation actually felt more like muscle than the others did

The Big time issue with these is the rain and overall grip and control you have to be on your game when driving this beast

And it was this one at that same color with stripes! Such a cool looking car!
3:45. Supreme Chad moment! We love you Joe!!
Thanks man!
Love how you set us up for the MPG and said if that’s our concern you have a nice RAV4 prime you can show us … LOL
Keep up the great work man!
All that power and no "oh sh*t" handle? lol
I’m going to have one before they make them illegal 😂

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one Brian!
Beautiful car. Beautiful color.
I like how most of the V10 engine is behind
the front axle. Good for the balance.
Needs a different exhaust though. 😉
I fell in love with the viper since the late 90s when I used to select this car on gran turismo 1

One of the greatest Mopars of all time. Had it continued today it would have had a Hellcat version.
That would be such a beast. First an ACR, then a hellcat would be 🤌
It is one of the greatest cars of all time.
No
Lol if the neon was back out would have a hellcat.. remember when they had the srt4s not bad back then

Carroll Shelby had actually nothing to do with the Viper aside with being persuaded to help pitch the idea to Iacocca. The Viper was the baby of Bob Lutz and Tom Gale along Dick Winkles, Roy Sjoberg, Francois Castaing, and 21 others with the requirement of racing experience. It was not originally sanctioned by Chrysler/Iacocca, it was developed in secret with ~$50 million dollar budget, which is absurd compared to what companies will spend on R&D on new and even updated existing models.
We need a Saleen S7 review!!
If it wasn't for the availability of the automatic transmission on the Z06,I'd be hard-pressed to choose a favorite. As it stands,there's just no comparison between these two. Price is also a factor, as you can find a Z06 from $30,000.
Hey Joe,since we're going back in time just a bit for comparison,could you please do a comparison between the 2020 Buick Regal GS and the more recent Kia Stinger GT?
C6 Z06 generation (2006-2013) is 6 speed manual only. They also put down significantly faster lap times than this gen viper those days
Wow Joe, this is a dandy of a car but while it lacks in technology by modern standards this is truely the Apostle to the American muscle cars but 5500 miles, child's play.
