Company Creates Dodge Viper Limo (Update)

I

f the Dodge Viper's standard two seats aren't enough for you, and you have more income than sense, perhaps the Dodge Viper limo is for you.

We think the term "limo" is stretching it—no pun intended—but we imagine that this particular limo handles pretty well.

Unique Movie Cars, a company which usually rents out cars used in movies and TV shows, brought one to the Sam's Town 300 NASCAR race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway a couple weekends back.

The car is based on a first-generation Viper RT/10 and was built off of a chassis from a Viper that was heavily damaged in a front-end collision.

We think the term "limo" is stretching it—no pun intended—but we imagine that this particular limo handles better than any Lincoln Town Car or stretched Caddy out there.

UPDATE: We just spoke with Michael Sciortino from Unique Movie Cars Las Vegas and he told us that the car was NOT wrecked, rather, a photo taken during the filming of a video shoot was misinterpreted by some journalists who visited the company's site looking for pictures. According to Sciortino, a different colored hood was placed on the car, and some people thought that the car was being reclaimed from a wreck. Also, the car is a second-generation Viper from 1988, not a first-generation car as we originally thought.
