Default Viper Powered Devon GTX

Monterey 2009: 2010 Devon GTX — Autoblog

Nice looking car. Built to go head to head with Europes finest.


I cant wait to read some reviews on it. 650hp and a 6pd manual alone make it worth the look.

Other than the motor is shares nothing with a Viper. This is one of those "if you have the money" type of things. Price aside its a neat car.

Looks more like a modern Shelby Daytona Coupe.

It was designed and hand built in california. Justin Bell also helped develop the car. Weight is not mentioned in the article, but I'd guestimate around 3000-3150lbs.

I usually don't find these fanboy super cars very amusing but this thing looks nice. the interior fails hardcore though. looks like an 80's car. outside is pretty.

wow... a 2009 VERT viper weights: Curb Weight MT 3440
and its cost 1/4 the price? this fails.

I'm all in for American super cars but priced that high is not going to happen.

I just noticed that all the controls are touch screen things, not buttons.

And you sure do like to bitch about prices.
