      This is a cool car. I saw it at VOI9 in 2006. Chrysler should of built the Firepower car.

      It technically was “viper powered.” It was buily on the Vipers frame. I believe it was a way to get more use out of the viper platform.

      It does kinda look like the crossfire. I didn’t know a single person who got one of those that wasn’t a lemon. Occasionally you still see one on the road but I never see one with the rear spoiler still working.

      Short little story but worth the read. I didn’t know it was designed by the same guy as the ME-412 (supposedly there is one of those in private hands, but I’m not sure I believe that.)

      They say “Viper powered” but it is clearly sporting the 6.1 liter Hemi. Maybe that was the original idea? Anyone know?
