It is known that despite his strong love of sophisticated European sports cars, Chris Harris also has a fondness for American muscle cars mainly because they are such horsepower bargains. Mustangs and Camaros and Corvettes, Harris has driven them all liked them, but what does he think of the wildest Yankee-mobile of them all, Dodge Viper ACR?
You may remember this blue Dodge Viper ACR from the first episode of the new and failed Top Gear. Well, only now we get to see Chris’s take on it, and it’s a very short take sadly. But hey, you don’t need more than four minutes to decide if you like the ACR or not.
