2013 SRT Viper, Porsche 918 Spyder Track Pack, 2013 Audi RS 5: Today’s Car News

The 2013 SRT Viper is continuing its track testing, sussing out its final production setup for suspension, tune, and electronics controls, and along the way, it has gotten a new paint job, this time with its trademark twin racing stripes on a field of bright red. Looking good, Viper.

The Porsche 918 Spyder may get a race-ready track package, according to a new report–as if this weren’t already the raciest, most seductively quick hybrid on deck for the near future.

And the 2013 Audi RS 5 is hitting dealers around the U.S., finally, after coming in a bit late on its «spring 2012» goals. Nevertheless, we’re happy it’s here. It will start at about $78,600 plus fees, says one San Diego dealer.
