The 2017 Dodge Viper Commemorates 25 Years With One Final Lap

After owning the asphalt for 25 years running, the Dodge Viper will roar one final time with the 2017 model — the final year of production for the legendary supercar. Dodge is celebrating the milestone with five exclusive limited-edition models designed to highlight several of the most iconic special-edition Vipers.

2017 Dodge Viper Revs Its Engine

In keeping with 25 years of tradition, the 2017 Dodge Viper is built to do more than perform — it’s handcrafted in Detroit to leave the competition in the dust. All 2017 Dodge Vipers are powered by an all-aluminum 8.4-liter V-10 engine that delivers 645 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque.

For 2017, the Detroit-built supercar that redefined speed and performance for the past quarter century returns with the record-breaking ACR package. With more track records than any production car in the world — 13 road course lap records as certified by the Sports Car Club of America — the Dodge Viper ACR will live on as the fastest street-legal Viper track car ever.

The 2017 Dodge Viper and these special editions will be available for order starting June 24, 2016. Check out all the details on the five special-edition models below:

Five Limited-Edition 2017 Dodge Viper Models

2017 Dodge Viper Customization and Personalization

When it comes to customization and personalization, your Viper is guaranteed to be unique. Each limited-edition Viper model features a serialized instrument panel badge with the model name that can be customized with the customer’s name.

And with more than 50 million unique build configurations, including the ACR package, available through the “1 of 1” customization program, the 2017 Dodge Viper is truly one-of-a-kind snake.

No two customers can order the same configuration, including color, in the same model year, which means your Viper will stand out in any crowd … even in a Viper den.
