A Look at the Painting of the 2014 SRT Viper

SRT Vipers are expensive cars.  With that obvious observation out of the way, the reason behind that is more than just the raw power included in the Viper supercar, it is also in the care it takes to make one.  USA Today has a fascinating look at the what it takes to get a SRT Viper painted at a small plant.

Imagine what it looks like when a car is on the assembly line.  We all have an expectation when we think of that.  The car’s body making it’s way down as workers and machines work on various bits and parts while sparks fly around.  A Viper’s production has a major difference from that.  When it comes time to put on the finishing paint job, an average vehicle gets put underneath the sprayers and comes out with a fresh coat.  With a Viper, the paint is applied by hand.

Vipers are special and are treated as such.  For this reason, it takes much longer for a Viper to get out of the plant and into the buyers hands.  The average paint time for a vehicle at a mass-production plant is 8 hours, but here, a Viper can take up to 120 hours to paint.

The attention to detail is incredible to see.  It is clear after reading this article that the care put into making sure the image of the Viper is top-of-the-line for those willing to invest is impressive.  One of the most difficult things for the painters, aside from the actual painting itself, is finding the right colors to make the Viper pop.  Not just any color will do, it has to be something that accentuates the curves and design.  That is one of the reasons why it only  has certain colors available to choose from.  At the Detroit Auto Show, SRT put out an all-new color for the 2014 SRT Viper, Stryker Green.
