McLaren Venom in the Dodge Viper

Monday, 29 January 2007 Written by Tim Beggs

McLaren tuned Dodge Viper

One of the least viewed and more alluring cars back at the January auto show in Detroit was the Diamondback Viper coupe, crafted by American Specialty Cars & powered by a 650hp V10 tuned by McLaren Performance Technologies. The possibility of ASC building the concept car is quite strong and the reception by Mopar fans will likely be one of open arms. After all, who wouldn't like more power (tuned V10), better looks (vented hood), and less weight (85 pounds)? If money is plentiful, who wouldn't want a car that would be at 60mph from a stop in 3.5 seconds or less? Sign me up. Check out more of the Diamondback over at AutoWeek.
