2008 Viper ACR Priced Under $100,000
December 14th, 2007
When we first saw the 2008 Viper ACR we thought for sure that it would be given a price tag of $100,000 – but Chrysler assured us that they would price it lower. This week we noticed that they kept their word when we saw that the price tag was $98,110. They kept their word – but they came as close as they could to the high number.
The $12,000+ you spend over the base Viper coupe will get you a carbon fiber front splitter and adjustable rear wing, adjustable coilover suspension, a stiffer front anti-sway bar, lightweight 2-piece Stoptech brakes, and forged wheels wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
2008 Dodge Caliber
September 25th, 2007
Dodge is looking for ways to beef up their line by adding on the big macho grilles. One of the best ones that they have built is the 2008 Dodge Caliber. It may be a hatchback, but it is a tough, roomy, inexpensive, and fuel-efficient car.
Built on a global platform also used for the Jeep Compass SUV and midsize Dodge Avenger sedan, the tall-bodied Dodge Caliber comes only as a compact hatchback/wagon. The rear seats fold in a 60/40 split, increasing cargo space to a maximum of 48 cubic feet. The front passenger seat can fold forward to make room for longer items, such as ladders, skis or surfboards. The Caliber has decent headroom and legroom in the front and back, but it is still a small car, so don’t expect more than two adults to fit comfortably in the backseat.
2008 Dodge Viper SRT10

The new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 shows off more of what performance aficionados crave: throw-back-in-the-seat power, combined with benchmark braking, world-class ride and handling, a race-inspired interior and bold exterior styling. While most SRT vehicles offer balanced, overall performance, the heart and soul of the new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 is its standout powertrain.
“A legendary big-game hunter once said, “Bring enough gun!” and with the new 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10, we”ve created some very powerful artillery for sports-car enthusiasts,” said Kipp Owen, Director Street and Racing Technology (SRT) Engineering, Chrysler Group.
