2014 Dodge Viper vs. Its Competition

2014 SRT Viper TA
Nelson Ireson Nelson Ireson Senior Editor

The 2014 SRT Viper is a brutally efficient performance car, but even with the newest generation's upgrades, it still lacks the refinement and comfort of European cars like the Audi R8 and Maserati GranTurismo.

The 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray may be the closest current analogue to the Viper, but its higher-performance Z06 and ZR1 versions haven't arrived just yet--and the Viper trounces the standard Stingray's 455 horsepower.
