Review written on 3/1940.
Philadelphia Motors is in a unique position with the Copperhead. The Sports segment rules the Black Mamba market. While the Yeovil Donna is the worst vehicle in the segment. Where does the Copperhead fit between these two extremes? Should consumer celebrate Philadelphia Motors's new Sports? Or is this just another underachieving vehicle in the Sports segment?

I was giddy when I heard we were testing Philadelphia Motors Copperhead. On the track this thing is fast. How fast? Notice there are no pictures on this page? That fast! This is one of the fastest Sports I've ever been in. As impressive as that sounds, the 196 hp @ 3745RPMs 5970 cc V6 engine is even more impressive. Peddle to the metal, this baby will do 132 mph easily. And in a straight line we hit a 8.116s 0 to 60 mph! We found that with 220 lb-ft of torque this machine can tow an impressive 6843 lbs. The Philadelphia Motors Copperhead sticks to the road like burnt eggs on a frying pan. The handling characteristics of the Copperhead puts it in the top tier of Sports. Mommy can I keep it? Please?!

The Philadelphia Motors Copperhead reminds me of jail. The longer you're inside of it the less you want to be there. The interior is drab and non-existent. Devoid of form or functionality. There is nothing there. Nothing to write about. Just horrible, cold, nothingness. And that is how you can best describe the Copperhead's insides.

The Philadelphia Motors Copperhead's 20 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space is plenty for the typical consumer. It is certainly better than average for this type of vehicle. While there are some areas that could be improved all in all we think the Copperhead is good.

At first glance you might of thought it to be a cheap poorly made toy. Maybe it's one of those life sized cutouts? But no my friends, this is the real deal, this is the Philadelphia Motors Copperhead and it's has god awful quality.

The Philadelphia Motors Copperhead is not a particularly reliable car. In fact, it is quite downright bad. We suffered a catastrophic brake failure in just a couple of days testing a new car. While this might be a fluke, we wouldn't bet on it from the complaints we've heard.

Here is a pro-stock tip. If the Philadelphia Motors Copperhead sells any meaningful number of vehicles, be sure to buy fuel stocks! It's that bad! The Copperhead gets an abysmal 14.1 mpg! This is not the vehicle for trying to save money on fuel expenses.

With that said, I would not trust the Philadelphia Motors Copperhead with my kids. The risk adverse should avoid this vehicle due to its horrible safety features. This is probably why the dealership makes you sign a wavier before driving it.

In the end the Philadelphia Motors Copperhead provide decent value for the money. It's not the best car in the Sports segment, but it won't disappoint. You could do a lot worse. If this model appeals to you I see no reason to dissuade you from it.
