If I was going to have a "fun fleet" (might be an interesting list to compile), I think I'd like to include a Viper. We can debate performance and handling, but I've always liked the look. Reminds me of my Hot Wheels collection when I was a kid

I've always loved the Viper and I would be sad to see it go. Some years ago, Chrysler created a concept for a sports car called the Firepower. It was based on the Viper and powered by a Hemi V-8 with luxury trim and features. It never went into production, but I always wondered how that car might have performed in the market place if it were priced competitively (perhaps below the Corvette to attract interest), and equipped with the right combination of luxury features, refinement, performance and handling.
