The history of Dodge Viper
goes way back to,when a casual discussion between Robert A. Lutz,
Chrysler President, and Tom Gale, the chief of design, too place. Lutz
had the idea of trying to bring out a newer version of the Cobra.
Lutz wanted to bring out a sports car that was equipped with a modern
engine, a new type of transmission, a great suspension designed that was
supported by a computer and high quality tires. Although this new
sports car would have all the benefits of modern technology, it was not
going to be a car with high end gadgets or other high tech fittings. The
car was meant to have a rear wheel drive with a lot of power.
