Which One of Our Custom Dodge Vipers Do You Like the Most?
It’s no secret that the new Viper hasn’t sold well.
Now Dodge is searching for ways to make the hand-built sports car attractive to more buyers. Enter the Viper GTC.
This car can be built in 25-million different unique combinations thanks to 8,000 hand-painted exterior colors, 24,000 hand-painted custom stripes, 11 wheel options, 16 interior trims, seven aero packages, three brake packages, four suspension options and a collection of standalone parts.

So naturally, when the configurator went live, we here at the AutoGuide.com office couldn’t help but put together some custom Vipers. Some chose to make the sexiest combination they could, while others went the opposite route, using the endless possibilities to try and hinder the car’s gorgeous design with clashing color combos.
Check out our custom Vipers below. Let us know which one you think is the best, or, build your own and submit it in the comments section.
Stephen Elmer, News Editor – “A classic combo: puke green and fuschia. I set out to make the worst looking Viper I could, but quickly realized that even crazy color combos don’t take away the Snake’s fangs. The Viper still manages to look sexy with these clashing colors. On the performance end, my car is the Viper TA 2.0 package, to make sure it’s ready to hit the race track on the weekend.”
Mike Schlee, Road Test Editor -“I built my Viper to look similar to my favorite Viper of all time, the original GTS. Of course it had to be blue with white stripes. To modernize it a bit, I’ve added some tasteful aero and a set of black wheels.”
Jason Siu, News Editor – “When it comes to building a customer Dodge Viper, I believe you have “go loud or go home.” That’s why I chose the two-tone color scheme matched with the aggressive carbon styling and massive rear spoiler. Let’s face it, the Viper is an iconic American sports car and there’s just no reason to keep it subtle.”
Craig Cole, Associate Editor – “I opted for subtlety with my Viper, well, as under-the-radar as a 645-hp beast can be. This means there’s no gaudy spoiler or brightly painted brake calipers, just clean simplicity.
Sami Haj-Assaad, Features Editor – “Don’t call it beige, that’s a tan beauty right there, just like yours truly. To help it stand out, I opted for some cyan blue stripes. They add a nice visual pop to keep things interesting and contrast nicely with the orange Brembo brake calipers outfitted to my Viper. Rounding out the exterior design, I chose the advanced aerodynamics package and exterior carbon fiber package, both of which spice things up. Just check out that trunk-lid spoiler! Finally, since my Viper looks so loud, I’d opt for the Harman-Kardon 18-speaker system so I can hear my music in all its funky glory.”
