VS

Critical Review

"HORRIBLE!"

Absolutely horrible experience owning a GEN V Viper. Purchased it brand new and from day one it was nothing but problems! Paint bubbled and blistered before even hitting the 200 mile mark. Front hood and side sills all needed to be replaced. Then rear diff and engine had issues and needed to be replaced. All this before even 1000 miles. FCA and their dealerships were a NIGHTMARE to deal with! They wouldn’t cover anything under warranty! NEVER BUYING ANOTHER DODGE OR FCA PRODUCT AGAIN! Complete trash build quality. Sold it and moved on. Lesson learned.

V-8 Engine
Pros

Small trunk space, stereo system

Cons

Terrible experience, Overrated cars

Quick car and a nice rumbling exhaust system. Yes it's a fun car, but there are a few problems. Gas mileage is really terrible, and this car feels really heavy. Sold the car, it's just pointless. There not a popular choice car for the money.

Fun car
Pros

Styling

Cons

Not as fun as I thought, Value is low

Gas mileage is terrible at 12 miles to a gallon. I, thought this car would be fun as weekend cruiser. It's not as fun as I thought. It's an older car, really pricey and expensive on repairs.

BAD MISTAKE
Pros

Seats, body design

Cons

Market value is terrible, Car problems

Should of never bought this car. I'm having the worst time trying to sale it without taking a huge loss from it. A lot of places don't want to pay the high dollar value. This car has super low mileage. It's not an everyday driver. Market value is beyond terrible right now. These cars are absolutely garbage, and it's a fact not a guess. Crazy everything, and the economy.
