The 645-hp Dodge Viper ACR -- TEST/DRIVE

Matt Farah tests out the insane Dodge Viper ACR at Thunderhill raceway in California.

Stopping production of this car is a mistake.

There has always been something about a Viper that I have liked better than a Corvette. It's a shame that more people don't prefer it.

[coreyscarrepairs]

Ah, Matt. No politics, really kills the vibe.

[JDGillis]

Go Trump!!! Hillary would ban all fun cars and force everyone in to a POS Prius.

[MusicToADream]

Good lord, shut up about politics people. Just enjoy this beauty of a car.

[ge]

The ACR is just a giant middle finger to the entire automotive world.

[realtalk]

Damn-it Dodge, just raise the price, reduce the numbers built and add 100 horses. Sell it like a p1 or ferrari. It deserves to live and rule. All hail the King.

[omaralghamdi]

Matt you triggered so many with just one sentence, almost like they need their own safe space.

[DanielD]

*Watches video*. Nice video, the ACR is a monster of a car! Let's see what the comments section has to say!

*Reads comments section... Slowly backs away.*

[RamyWarda]

I wouldn't mind Trump as a president, nor would I mind dailying this thing. Absolute beauty

VIPER ACR/HELLCAT 2016! MAKE AMERICA FAST AGAIN!

[anonymouswombat]

Don’t say anything about politics on a car channel. Bad for business

[MrSlowestD]

Wish we didn't have to bring up that stupid election here :-\. This is a place to get away from that BS!

Anyway..
I also wish the viper wasn't going away. I have no idea why people don't like it, I'm obsessed with it. I loved it ever since I was a little boy and now that the new one is out I want it 2x as much. Unfortunately like most cars out of the 10k range, I can't afford it. I'd love to get my hands on an old GTS or similar for like 20-30k though, I love the simplicity of the old one, but even coming up with that much is a bit difficult. Maybe someday I'll have one of these new ones, love them so much... As cool as the ACR is, though, I think I'd get the regular, maybe TA?

This comment section needs to be disabled before shit gets dumb

[Chrisfragger]

He's in THIS line of work and he is Anti-Trump? LMAO.... That's kinda unexpected.

[SteveC-Shaman]

I used to race on Kumhos and did well on them, too.

[Maverick_Van_Traveller]

LOL @ the amount of butthurt in these comments. Remember 2015, when Harambe was still alive and the idea of President Trump was laughable? I miss those simpler times.

[danne]

Butt hurt in here is epic, great review Matt.

[PatrickGSR]

Everyone who thinks Matt's jab at Trump = support for HRC is *flat out ignorant*. Maybe go look up who is actually running in this presidential race, and try to make some informed decisions next Tuesday instead of BLINDLY voting all red, all blue, etc.

The only thing faster than a Viper ACR is a Viper ACR being driven by Donald Trump. Believe me, he is a tremendous driver, everyone says so. He also has normal sized hands and has a solid understanding of geopolitics. But I digress.
