The Dodge Viper is a sports car that was manufactured by Dodge (by SRT for 2013 and 2014), a division of American car manufacturer FCA US LLC from 1992 through 2017, having taken a brief hiatus in 2007 and from 2010 to 2012. Production of the two-seat super car began at New Mack Assembly Plant in 1991 and moved to Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in October 1995.

Although Chrysler considered ending production because of serious financial problems, on September 14, 2010, the then chief executive Sergio Marchionne announced and previewed a new model of the Viper for 2012. In 2014, the Viper was named number 10 on the "Most American Cars" list, meaning 75% or more of its parts are manufactured in the U.S.

The Viper was ultimately discontinued in 2017 after being in production for just over twenty years.

1965 Shelby Cobra 427 1000 Miglia Burago Made In Italy












From Wikipedia:
El AC Cobra es un automóvil deportivo anglo-estadounidense construido en los años de 1962 a 1966 por el fabricante AC Cars. En contra de la creencia popular, no fue este el primer automóvil en utilizar un chasis ligero y una carrocería de aluminio europeos y un potente motor V8 estadounidense, pero posiblemente haya sido el más famoso.

Al igual que muchos fabricantes británicos, los automóviles AC usaban el suave y refinado motor Bristol de 6 cilindros en línea, de pequeño volumen de producción, incluido en el biplaza AC Ace. El motor era un diseño de BMW de antes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, por lo que la compañía lo consideró anticuado en los años 60. Bristol entonces tomó la decisión de cesar la producción de dicho motor y usar un Chrysler V8 de 313 plg³ (5,1 L). Aunque no sea cierto, comúnmente se cree que el expiloto estadounidense Carroll Shelby fue quien sacó de la supuesta bancarrota a la compañía AC, consiguiendo que se decidiera a usar el motor de 2,6 litros (159 plg³) del Ford Zephyr en todos sus coches.
