We consider a neutrino dark energy model and study its implications for the neutrino superluminality reported recently by the OPERA collaboration. In our model the derivative couplings of the neutrino to the dark energy scalar result in a Lorentz violation in the neutrino sector. Furthermore, the coupling of the dark energy scalar field to the stress tensor of the Earth automatically leads to a nontrivial radial profile for the scalar which in turn yields a terrestrial neutrino v-c far above its value in interstellar space, so as to be simultaneously compatible OPERA, MINOS and SN1987A data upon fitting a single parameter.
