Back then the Viper was a true concept car for the street, hell, when first released it didn&#8217;t have door handles, windows or a roof.

The Viper captivates everything that we have come to love in an American super car. As a true performance machine the Viper is the stuff that little boys dream of. It&#8217;s a hooligan in every sense of the word and makes no bones about its persona. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ridelust.com\/2010-viper-final-edition-farewell-to-the-serpent\/viperfinal3\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-42850\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ridelust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ViperFinal3-500x730.jpg?resize=500%2C730\" alt=\"Viper Front\" title=\"ViperFinal3\" width=\"500\" height=\"730\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-42850\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It acted as a boost of pride when our auto industry was in the dumps and made it&#8217;s European rivals continually scratch their heads as they watched the Viper rack up victory after victory on racetracks around the world.
