Imagine, you're driving along on a Sunday afternoon. Everyone you look at is looking back at you. As you pull up to a stop light, someone in the coffee shop on the corner stands up wide-eyed, and mouths "Wow!", knocking over his fat-free latte in the process and shorting out his Macbook Air, which emits a pleasing curl of white smoke.  A group of coeds stream out from the book store opposite.  When they notice you, they let out a whoop, and one of them shimmies seductively.  The tall one, all blonde hair and attitidude, lifts her shirt before strutting off around the corner, hips-a-wiggling to the astonished cries of her friends.  The light turns green, you shift into gear, and ease away.  You can feel dozens of eyes still watching you, but as you ease your foot ever so slightly down on the accelerator, the unforgettable sight of a topless young beauty is suddenly forgettable.  The rear tires fight for traction as the needle on the tachometer hits 1500 RPM.  You're hardly on the gas, but the engine jumps to life and it's all you can do to keep the car in a straight line.  But you've got it.  You ease down your right foot a touch more, balancing the urge of the rear tires to break loose and your own urge to send your charge at full speed down the road ahead.   Within seconds you've shifted from first to second, then third, and now fourth, your shifts crisp and clean, as you marshal the relentless tug-of-war between the huge motor and the mammouth rear tires.  Now you're on the open road, 100 MPH a distant memory, but the faster you drive, the more the car sticks to the road.  There's no danger, because the other cars pull to the side in reverent gesture to the beast that has been unleashed on the road they are not worthy to share...

Ok, I did say imagine.  It might not happen exactly like that (editor's note, the preceeding dream sequence was performed on a closed road by a professional driver), but if you were the proud owner of a 2008 Snakeskin Green Viper Coupe, wielding 600 HP and 560 ft/lbs of torque, you might be surprised at what you see, trust me on that ;-) and what you can do.  If your dreams consist of heading over to Home Depot and loading up the family vehicle with a year's supply of mulch and spackle, you'd better have a VERY small yard if the vehicle in question is a Dodge Viper.  And chances are, it's lack of fold-down rear seat and hoseable trunk mats will have already put you off.  Alternatively, if your idea of a green car has nothing to do with the color of the paint, the Viper's 8.4L V10 might just raise a red flag or two on your econometer.  So, the Viper is a special car.  It isn't practical.  It has only one cup holder, and a trunk barely big enough to hold a magnum of Champagne.  It's tires are so wide, even if you were foolish enough to take it to a car wash, it wouldn't fit on the tracks.  When you climb into a Viper, you need an instruction manual and a deep breath.  When you climb back out again, you need a plan and asbestos pants.  But I can assure you, it is all worth it.  I've had my fun.  I need to save some money so I have at least a 10% chance of retiring before I keel over at my desk while telling someone, for the very last time, that I think they are on mute because I can't hear them.  So, please, take me out of my misery.  Give a guy a chance to live a little more.  Buy my car...go on..do it!

Zombie cars roundup: Dodge has sold 3 new Vipers this year

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.   BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.   Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.   Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
