The Dodge Viper was undoubtedly one of America’s greatest performance cars. Going through five generations of the V-10 powered snake, Dodge hand-built Vipers for 25 model years, before calling it quits in 2017. To help close out the Viper’s historic life, Dodge//SRT released five exclusive limited-edition models for collectors. Among them was GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACR.
The 2017 Dodge Viper GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACR was designed to pay tribute to one of the most distinguishable and iconic Viper paint schemes of all time – the white and blue combination of the 1998 Viper GTS-R GT2 Championship Edition. The car featured a Pearl White exterior with Blue Pearl GTS stripes, Extreme Aero Package, Carbon Ceramic brakes, Exterior Carbon Package, unique red Stryker badge decal, GTS-R exterior sill decals, USA flag B-pillar decals, ACR interior with red accent stitching, Header Red seat belts, serialized instrument panel GTS-R badge and a custom car cover that matched the exterior paint scheme and showcased the customer name above the driver’s side door.
Like the 1998 Viper GTS-R GTS Championship Edition, only 100 units were produced of the 2017 Dodge Viper GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACR. All 100 units sold out within two ordering days.
One of these limited-edition Vipers, recently was up for grabs on the popular automotive auction site, Bring A Trailer. This particular was serialized as #33/100 and only had 531 miles on the odometer since it was brought home.
