Top 10 Cars of the 2012 NY Auto Show

1. 2013 SRT Viper

Forgive us for being predictable, but no other car at the 2012 NY Auto Show even comes close to the all-new Viper. The hands-down star in the Big Apple, the bright red Viper is the fifth-generation of the American supercar and is also the new flagship vehicle for Chrysler corp’s SRT performance division.

Powered by a similar 8.4-liter V10 to the outgoing model, it makes 640 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque. It is, however, 100 lbs lighter than the previous car.

Other impressive upgrades include Italian-influenced styling outside, plus some very European interior upgrades with seriously premium leather and craftsmanship. There’s a carbon fiber hood, roof and truck, oh, and the new Viper also boasts 355 wide rear tires.
