Yeah, it's just the ACR. It says it on the fender. It's not one of a kind but it's the fastest production consumer vehicle around the Nurburgring, beating both the ZR-1 and GT-R V-Spec.

Dodge Viper business turned over to Fiat

Chrysler has been trying to sell its Dodge Viper sports car business since late last year but according to the struggling automaker, the once prominent brand couldn’t even muster up offers of $10 million. In fact, Chrysler insisted that it had received only one bid of $5.5 million from Devon Motorworks, which planned to use the Viper platform for its own GTX supercar.
It has since been revealed that several group had made offers of up to $35 million but these were before Chrysler’s bankruptcy, though there were reportedly knocked back for having insufficient financing.
Fast forward to today, and Chrysler, now out of bankruptcy and in bed with Fiat, has announced that it has turned over all the Viper assets, including rights to the name, to the Italian auto giant. It’s now up to Fiat to decide whether it still wants to sell the Viper business or phase out altogether, reports Edmunds. Phasing out the brand, as dreadful as it sounds, is a possibility that’s gaining credence as there are fears that the Viper range is a competitor for the Ferrari and Maserati brands.
The brand's sale, or death, would mark the end of a 17-year run of the Viper at Chrysler, with the first model having debuted in the 1992 model year. The company just produced its 25,000th Viper in March of this year, and celebrated the event with festivities that included the launch of the track-focused Viper SRT10 ACR.

he was at mission drags a few weeks ago, it's an ACR viper.... crazy ass car no doubt..
it's supposed to be able to do a flat 11 in quarter mile, but the car was very new, just a little over 1000k on it, so the owner was taking it easy..

could be but vanity plates arent all that hard to get ahold of. plus how many arc vipers are in bc? seems to be a fairly rare car.
Damn...that thing's a beast!!

You're correct Timpo, Fiat does get Viper but a few other companies were interested in purchasing the brand. Some offered as low as $5.5 million, lol.
