Ever wonder what happens when someone wakes up and says, “Today, I’m cramming 500 horsepower into an innocent Wrangler?” Well, this Viper-powered Jeep is the answer. It’s loud, it’s ridiculous, and it just sold for $34,000—which, considering the engine alone is worth almost that much, makes it one of the wildest deals of the year.

The only thing missing? A custom name and graphics to match. Might I suggest: Whitesnake. Think about it—this build is arena rock excess on wheels. It’s flashy, over-the-top, and leans fully into the cocaine-chic aesthetic. The only way to improve it? Program it to blast “Here I go AGAIN, on my OWN!” every time you turn the key.

The mullet of Wranglers is all “Viper” in the front, all “Jeep” in the back

This Jeep doesn’t care about logic. Or balance. Or off-road ability. It’s a rolling middle finger to moderation.

“This thing is beastly,” said BJ Cornell of Cross Chrysler Jeep, the dealer that sold it. No argument here. Under the hood sits an 8.3-liter Viper V10, “just crammed in there,” and making nearly Hellcat horsepower.

Outside, the pearl white paint and red accents scream rock-star energy. Cornell called it “very pretty”, but let’s be honest—this Jeep doesn’t want to be pretty. It wants to steal your girlfriend, park on your lawn, and leave burnout marks shaped like a mullet.

More metal than a Def Leppard concert

Inside, the custom roll cage, black-and-red leather interior, and humongous Boston Acoustics amps keep the glam energy cranked to 11.

“This was the stuff back in the day,” Cornell said of the sound system. Damn right it was. This thing was built for Whitesnake and White Claws, equally likely to blast Still of the Night or terrify pedestrians.

More horsepower than common sense

But let’s be real—this Jeep wasn’t built for Moab. With a front-heavy weight balance that would make a 90s muscle band jealous, it’s not exactly rock-crawling material. That didn’t stop the internet from loving it. “This much power in a little ol’ Jeep seems stupid. But man, stupid is FUN!!!”

Another summed it up: “The answer to a question nobody asked. But the answer is HELL YEAH!!”

Considering a third-gen Dodge Viper averages $56,000, and a Jeep Wrangler TJ runs up to $19,000, this thing was a backstage-pass bargain.

Final verdict: Viper-Jeep built for the drag strip, not the trail. And that’s OK

Would this Jeep survive an off-road adventure? Probably not. Would it absolutely annihilate a set of rear tires? Absolutely. It’s a custom-built, fire-breathing, glam-metal Frankenstein—more Whitesnake than Wrangler.

So crank up the volume, tease your hair, and get ready for one hell of a ride. The new owner of White Snake just scored the ultimate 80s rockstar Jeep. And if they’re not blasting Here I Go Again at full volume at every red light… they’re just not doing it right. ?
