So Cerberus is abotu to gut Chrysler.

Viper could never survive as its own niche brand. Without a dealer network, the economy of scale of the Chrysler brand for marketing and R&D it is as absurd an idea as expecting TVR to ever amount to anything again.

Besides which, they barely sell 600 cars a year at $90,000 - they would sell 10 maybe 20 at $250,000+ each... which is what a boutique Viper would have to sell for.

When this goes dow, expect lots of people to park their Vipers, as the remaining ones will become parts donors for the guys needing spares
