Well why would they have a huge party at the plant and make a big deal about the last Viper if they were still going to make them?

I’d say your Mag is wrong, but I’m sure Final GTS will know for sure.

They also did these:

> As part of its “Dealer Exclusive Program,” Dodge has created three special editions specifically for the dealers who’ve sold the most Vipers across the country. The first is the Viper SRT10 ACR Roadster, commissioned by Woodhouse Dodge of Blair, Nebraska, in yellow with black; followed by the “Reverse SRT10 ACR” in green over black for Texas’ Tomball Dodge; and finally Roanoke Dodge of Roanoke, Illinois’ Black SRT10 Coupe with a split purple stripe up the middle.

Here is a video discussing the possibility of making a track only Viper available:

> He did acknowledge that demand for the 2010s has been surprisingly robust, particularly the limited edition ACR-X. As a result, Dodge is considering building an additional batch of the track-only models.
