MotoeXotica Classic Cars is proud to present this 1995 Viper RT/10 Roadster. This example was made in Chrysler’s New Mack Avenue assembly plant in Detroit, Michigan then shipped to the Milwaukee, Wisconsin sales region.Finished in Viper Red, the car’s paint and trim are in overall very good order, with some minor blemishes visible upon close inspection. This Viper has had the same owner for the past five years! The windshield and rear window are in good condition, as are the car’s lights, which are intact. A soft-top cover is included and side curtains of fabric with clear plastic operated by zippers were inserted into the door and hand-bolted when needed. All of these decisions were made to reduce weight. The car shipped with a tonneau cover (the soft top is removable and folds to fit in the trunk).This snake rolls on new Michelin radials, size 275/40ZR17 in front and 335/35ZR17 in back. The tires are wrapped around gray, three-spoke factory wheels, which still look great. The car’s bodywork, a tubular steel frame with resin transfer molding (RTM) fiberglass panels, is straight and solid, the bumpers fit well to the car’s body, the car’s engine bay is tidy and the cargo area is in good shape. The battery is located in the sealed compartment over the rear wheels to increase rear-end weight and traction.Under that big, tilt-up hood is motor with a unique cylinder configuration. Lamborghini, then owned by Chrysler Corporation, designed the V-10 for the Viper by recasting the block and heads in an aluminum alloy, and was based on the Chrysler LA V-8 engine. A major contributor to the Viper since the beginning was Dick Winkles, the chief power engineer, who spent time in Italy.The V-10 engine weighed 711 pounds and produced 400 horsepower at 4600 rpm and 465 lbs-ft of torque at 3600 rpm. It completed a quarter mile in 12.6 seconds and had a maximum speed of more than 150 mph. Buttoned to this engine is a Tremec six-speed manual transmission with a 3.07:1 rear end with anti-spin.The Viper’s large tires allowed the car to average close to one lateral g in corners, placing it among the elite cars of its day. As a throwback to the old school of driving, the Viper eschewed modern safety aids such as traction control and anti-lock brakes. Driver convenience features on this model include air-conditioning, power rack-and-pinion steering, power four-wheel disc brakes and tilt steering column.Inside, the old-school line of thought continues with the car’s spartan cabin. The gray leather bucket seats, which offer inflatable lumbar support and are adjustable, are in good order, as is the black carpeting. The gray instrument panel, with its full instrumentation, is in one piece and looks fine. Facing the driver is a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel. The inner door panels, mirror glass, center console and shift lever are all in good shape. Completing the interior is a factory AM/FM stereo with cassette deck.New-for-1995 Viper features included a passenger assist handle, refined alignment specifications and seat cushion storage pockets. Many of the body panel rivets were removed for 1995 to lend the car a cleaner appearance.The first Viper prototype was tested in January 1989. It debuted in 1991 with two pre-production models as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500 that year and went on sale in January 1992 as the RT/10 Roadster.Competition to this Dodge in 1995 included Chevrolet’s Corvette Convertible, Ferrari’s F355 Spyder, Nissan’s 300ZX Convertible and Porsche’s 993 Convertible.This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 23,117 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, actual mileage Kansas title.
