introduction:
In the 1990s, there were many classic models, and even some models can still be seen today, such as this 1996 Dodge Viper. Netizens encountered a handful of classic models in Shanghai, but this car has long been retired. Viper has the essence of an American sports car, which was after Chrysler acquired Dodge.
The sports car series was launched in 1989. Although it is difficult to encounter in real life, it can also be seen often in some racing blockbusters abroad. It's an authentic American sports car, and for those who love racing, the viper is like a lion ready to go. In the 1990s, people's lives were relatively poor, and there were very few families who could afford to buy a car. If there is an ordinary scooter, it has proved that the family has a certain economic strength.
The fact that the Dodge Viper family was able to open in the 1990s shows that it is either rich or expensive. See the rear of the car Shanghai A beginning, proper Shanghainese. Shanghai's economic strength has been reflected since the 1990s. Shanghai AZ is the earliest self-owned car license plate in Shanghai, perhaps everyone does not understand what is a self-owned car. That is, some manufacturers and enterprises and other units own vehicles, it seems that the owner of the dodge viper must be the big boss of the enterprise.
A brief introduction to the Dodge Viper
In 1989, the Dodge Viper series was officially launched, and the second generation of Viper was produced in 1996 and developed for a total of six years until it was discontinued in 2002. As a sports car, the power reserve is abundant, and the acceleration of this model to 100 kilometers takes only 4.5 seconds, and its maximum speed is 290 kilometers per hour. The current EMU trains are about 300 kilometers per hour. Equipped with an 8.0-liter v10 engine, the maximum torque can reach 661 Nm and the horsepower can reach up to 460 hp. In addition, it is also equipped with a six-speed manual transmission, which is sold for more than one million in China.
Vipers are expensive for reasons
The price of this model in foreign countries was not very high, at that time, the price was only 70,000 US dollars overseas, and it was imported into China. In the 1990s, there were no 4S stores in China, and if you wanted to buy imported models, the price could only be slaughtered. Moreover, you can't see the real car before buying a car, and there are very few promotional materials. Some car sellers can't even tell buyers the basic configuration and performance. Buying this car is more expensive than shanghai prices and requires risks. Of course, friends who can afford to buy a Dodge Viper must have enough grasp and relationship, and the price is more expensive to mention the car.
Quite Shanghai five suites
Now the number of sports cars in first-tier cities is gradually increasing, and it can often be seen on the road, so it is not surprising. But being able to witness a Million Luxury cars in the '90s also shows that you are very lucky. At that time, the house price in Shanghai was about 2,000 yuan a square, and the price of this viper was set at 1 million, which meant that 1 million could buy a house of 500 square meters. According to the calculation of 100 square meters, viper is equivalent to five suites in Shanghai. Nowadays, the housing prices in Shanghai have reached about 100,000, a total area of 500 square meters, which means that it has 50 million assets. You can imagine how rich the friends who could afford to buy this Dodge at that time were.
The owner also said that the car can not sell for a few dollars now, but it has also accompanied himself for decades, even if he wants to sell it, he has reluctance. Today, the car is still parked in the garage, a classic model that many of my racing friends went crazy about. The glory of the hero always has a moment of end, and the Dodge Viper is only collectible for the owner. Today's sports cars are more aggressive in terms of performance, and the streamlined body and angular details in appearance can better reflect the temperament of the sports car. The owner of the car said: Nowadays, he is ugly when he drives! When this car first came to you, it was also a brand new car.
