Limited Edition Dodge Vipers are Sold

It is the star of its own 90s television series, and holds the current production car lap record at the Laguna Seca Raceway with a time of 1:28.65. We are of course referring to the iconic Dodge Viper, which will not only celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2016, but also its final year of production.

To commemorate this bittersweet milestone, Dodge has released six limited-edition models that highlight several of the most iconic special edition Vipers.

According to Dodge, the VooDoo II Edition ACR, the Snakeskin Edition GTC, the GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACR, and a newly announced Snakeskin ACR Edition, all sold in just two days. All except for the 1:28 Edition ACR Viper, which sold out in just 40 minutes of its order books opening.

The 1:28 Edition ACR Viper “pays tribute to the current production car single lap record of 1:28.65 set by champion driver Randy Pobst in a 2016 Dodge Viper ACR at the historic Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Monterey, California, in October 2015.” The 1:28 Edition ACR features a black exterior, red ACR stripes, the Extreme Aero Package, Carbon Ceramic brakes, and a host of 1:28 Edition badges.

It’s incredible to think that Dodge has had such a hard time selling the V-10 powered supercar when almost 215 sold out in just a few days, although we admit that’s probably because collectors want the last cars before the order books close for good.

While we highly doubt that these strong sales will have Dodge see that the Viper is worth preserving, we do wish they would. The Viper is a special car, and a uniquely American beast. The automotive landscape will be a truly sadder place without its 8.4-liter V-10 engine growling at us or trying to put us backwards into a wall because we went too deep into the throttle.
