Recently picked up a 2010 Snakeskin Green Viper ARC, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!
Sorry about the typo in my subject line ACR (not ARC) Lol.
I recently bought a 2010 Snakeskin Green ACR, with black tapered stripes in front, 1 of only 4 made, and I could not be happier with this bad azz machine, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!! After the A8 trans. on my 2016 Corvette Z06 had a catastrophic failure and was replaced with a brand new trans., I lost confidence in the C7 Z and traded it for my new Viper. I have to admit compared to the Viper that C7 Z was also boring with the auto A8 trans. M7 is the trans. to get in C7 Z, makes driving SO MUCH funner and less likely to fail!
This is my second Gen IV Viper as I traded in a 2009 VOI Viper Coupe for the C7 Z06 (big mistake) but everything happens for a reason, as that ultimately led to me getting behind the wheel of my ALL TIME favorite Viper, the 2010 Snakeskin Green ACR that I just bought! The car I bought was PERFECTLY modded by Viper Guru Dan Cragin current owner of Specialty Performance. I am a hardcore go fast guy and my new baby is a complete animal with the following go fast mods. with ZERO nanny controls that has been perfectly modified by Viper Guru Dan Cragin.
1. Belanger Headers and High Flow Cats.
2. Ported and Polished Cylinder Heads
3. Ported Intake Manifold
4. Ram Air Carbon Fiber Kit with K&N Filter
5. Mopar Performance Computer
6. Last but not least rear end ratio upgraded from stock 3.07 to 3.73 gears (simply outrageous).
7. Another great bonus is car was upgraded to an awesome Alpine Stereo system with kick azz speakers and blue tooth which sounds incredible (when I am not just listening to that V 10 engine purring).
This car is a complete beast and incredible looking, puts a HUGE smile on my face whenever I drive it.
Now only if it wasant December in the suburbs of Chicago with 7 inches of fresh snow on the ground with sub-zero temps.
Just 3.5 months though until April 1st when the Snakeskin Green Venom Machine will be back out hunting on a full time basis!

Nice! I was trying to find a viper over a vette when I picked up my c6 just couldn't find one with low miles in the 30k range that I liked!
I do plan on going with a viper next time around tho
Love that color only thing I change is wheels and take the stripes off

Your name fits again! Congrats! Now if someone would buy my Viper hah
Your ACR looks great and I'm sure it sounds amazing. People always say they hate the way a Viper sounds, but after hearing mine, I love it.

LOL, that's great and the color is almost dead on.
What kind of snake is that (anyone)?
Thanks for the kind words guys.

Awesome car Jimmy! I personally think you, Boba and Whiteout have the three baddest looking cars on the forum. The new Z06 looks great, the the Viper ACR's and obviously the Murcielago are on another level.
