Dodge Viper (SR I) values & price trends, in the free CarClimb App

The Dodge Viper (SR I, 1992–1995) is a raw, unapologetic American supercar—now commanding serious attention as a modern classic with strong investment potential.

Born from a bold vision to revive the spirit of the Shelby Cobra, the first-generation Viper delivered brute force and minimalism in equal measure.
With its massive 8.0L V10 engine, six-speed manual transmission, and no electronic aids, the SR I Viper offered a visceral driving experience unlike anything else of its time. Its aggressive styling, side-exit exhausts, and open-air roadster design made it an instant icon. Early production numbers were low, and as the years pass, original examples—especially low-mileage or unmodified cars—are becoming increasingly rare.
As collectors shift focus to 1990s performance legends, the SR I Viper stands out for its purity, pedigree, and presence. For enthusiasts and investors, it represents a unique opportunity to own a milestone American supercar with rising collectability and long-term value growth.
