Only Six SRT Vipers to be Produced per Day Due to Low Demand...

The SRT Viper is gorgeous, fast, makes a good noise but no body wants to buy it. So far, the production of the 2014 SRT Viper was running at a daily rate of nine units. Unfortunately, due to low demand, the production will be decreased to 6 units per day. I don't think the Viper has anything to do with this. It's everything the fans wanted it to be. But the future doesn't look bright for our well loved V10 powered American sports car. Sad.
