"To put 23.5 mpg from a free-revving, 500hp V10 into perspective, the V10 Dodge Viper averages 12/20 city/highway."
You are also comparing a 8.4l to a (rumored) 5.0l, and the 8.4 has 600HP/580tq, easily tunable with mopar parts to 650+hp, AND meets federal Tier 2, Bin 5 and California's Low Emissions Vehicle (LEV) 2 mandates, and is expected to better the '07's 12/20mpg
Viper power curve:
RPM HP TQ
2400 225 495
3700 410 550
4800 524 570
6000 613 535
