Dodge Viper SRT-10 (ZB I)

Template:InfoboxCar2The 2003 Dodge Viper SRT-10 is a sports car manufactured by Dodge and the successor to the Dodge Viper GTS.

In comparison to its predecessor, the Viper SRT-10 has a newly styled exterior and a larger and more powerful version of the previously utilised 8.0L V10. It reuses the double stripes and the roof shape of the GTS.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted

The Viper SRT-10 is unlocked upon defeating Ming, the sixth Blacklist racer, and has a $88,000 price tag.

The strongest aspect of the car is acceleration although it tends to oversteer very easily in corners due to a rear-wheel drive configuration and high torque. Its heavy weight makes it useful in Pursuit.

Need for Speed: Carbon

The Viper SRT-10 appears in Need for Speed: Carbon as a Tier 3 Muscle class vehicle with a $150,000 price tag. It can be unlocked by differing means depending on the player's starting vehicle:

• Exotic Career - Win the Speedtrap event of the Shady Pines territory in Silverton.
• Muscle Career - Take over the Neon Mile territory in Silverton.
• Tuner Career - Take over the Shady Pines territory in Silverton.

The acceleration of the Viper SRT-10 remained unchanged in the title. It is the most effective Tier 3 Muscle car in that field. The main drawback of the Viper SRT-10 is its loose handling, which is worse than the Chevrolet Corvette Z06.

A blue modified Viper SRT-10 must be driven in the gold tier Pursuit Evasion event of the Challenge Series in the Collector's Edition release.

Need for Speed: ProStreet

The Viper SRT-10 appears in Need for Speed: ProStreet as a Tier 3 vehicle with a $80,000 price tag. It is made available as an optional reward to the player upon them dominating the Super Promotion Challenge: Autobahnring.

It is a competitive Drag and Speed Challenge car with powerful acceleration, which comes at the cost of handling.

Need for Speed: Undercover

The Viper SRT-10 appears in Need for Speed: Undercover as a Tier 2 vehicle with a $195,000 price tag. It is unlocked upon reaching Wheelman Level 9.5. It appears in the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo Wii releases with a price tag of $78,000.

The SRT-10 is one of the fastest accelerating Tier 2 cars, being up to par with the Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG and 1967 Shelby GT500. Handling counts as one of its weaker traits. Top speed is 216 mph (347 km/h).

Special Variants

Brad "Nickel" Rogers drives a white Viper SRT-10 with black stripes, which is unlockable in the Boss Car Pack DLC. It has a high top speed of 245 mph (394 km/h), overwhelming acceleration and twitchy handling. It is competitive in any kind of game mode.

Trivia

• Need for Speed: Most Wanted is the only title in the series to feature the Viper SRT-10 without its double stripes.
