While the Viper convertible roadster was introduced to the world in 1992, Dodge didn't add a hard-top coupe version until 1996.

The roof is often referred to as "double bubble" for the way it bulges out over the driver and passenger seats. The added comfort and security that it provides certainly help this all-out performance machine appeal to many more customers.

The Viper SRT10 coupe shares the convertible's mechanicals, which means the same fire-breathing 600-horsepower V10 engine under the big hood. It displaces 8.4 liters and also generates 560 pound-feet of torque.

The power is sent through a six-speed manual gear box and anti-spin differential to huge 19-by-13-inch rear wheels (18-by-10-inch wheels are up front).

Acceleration from zero to 60 miles per hour whizzes by in less than four seconds.

In either coupe or convertible form, the Viper's style is unmistakable and easily turns heads. It features a long hood with air ducts (new for 2008), a short deck lid with lip spoiler, deep-cut side scallops and sleek sloping roof line.

A trademark styling cue since day one, the dual exhaust pipes still exit at the side under the doors, although now not nearly as exposed.

The Viper's suspension and transmission were updated for 2008.

Unlike early Vipers, today's coupe includes most of the expected interior amenities such as suede seats with leather trim, air conditioning, a security system, power windows and seven-speaker stereo system with subwoofer and tweeters.
