> The standard ACR is 40 pounds lighter than the regular Viper coupe. An optional “Hard Core” pack saves an extra 40 pounds through the removal of the audio system, underhood silencer pad, trunk carpet, and tire inflator. The radio is replaced by a lightweight cover that can be configured to mount the lap timer that comes with the package. Hard-core, indeed.

:thumb Pretty cool.

I disagree, this is by far the sexiest Viper to be produced…
