    And now...leaked Gen 5 hood molds?

    No doubt where SRTs influence came from. Wow @ the similarities F50GT and Mach7 Falcon

    And now...leaked Gen 5 hood molds?

    I can't stand the sides. The charger looks so goofy with the half indent. The Viper needs a full height indent, not something retarded and out of place. The gaping butthole in the rear also looks terrible. One thing is for certain, I have no idea what to expect...but based on the teasers...

    new viper hot wheels car

    Ummm I don't go to Corvette forums. Park a Gen III between two Ferraris and see which gets more attention? LOL you have got to be joking me. No one even looks at the SRT Vipers at local car shows except for Viper lovers. I've spent a lot of time driving a 98' GTS in 1999 and a 2005 SRT in...

    new viper hot wheels car

    Given your username I'm amazed that you are amazed. The Viper group is (was?) a passionate group who really cares about the fate of the car. You and SRT people should be happy so many people are so intimately involved. Positive or Negative. We've been hyped up over the past year with "you won't...

    new viper hot wheels car

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. For me, this illustrates what I am complaining about. Every time I see the ACR, I feel like the looks don't match the performance. It has no shape. Then I look at the Comp Coupe. It may be slower, but it sure as hell looks better. Had they produced...

    new viper hot wheels car

    Because it doesn't look exotic. It really does look like the Alfa 8C. Which is a terrible thing. I've seen one in person and it looks like an SLK or Audi TT competitor (girl car). The general public loved the Gen I/II Vipers. They hated the gen III/IV vipers. Only enthusiast liked the gen...

    new viper hot wheels car

    To be honest I don't care what's under the hood and inside if that's what the exterior looks like. I can buy a Subaru and make it Viper fast. I like the Viper because of it's exotic shape and look, even though the SRT models lost some of that appeal. If the new Viper really does look as gay as...

    new viper hot wheels car

    That's my single biggest concern and biggest complaint with the genIII/IV. Jeff Lemke did his best to fix it with the Street Serpent. The best example I have is a comp coupe. Look at pictures of it coming down a straight away at you and then the ACR. No comparison. The Viper needs those flares...

    Car and Driver 2013 Viper Photo

    "Chrysler's multi-displacement system (cylinder shutdown)" ?????? You better be joking. If they put that into the Viper I will personally donkey punch every member of the SRT team.

    new viper hot wheels car

    If this is the new Viper I'm calling it the biggest disappointment ever. It has straight sides and no fenders to speak of in the rear again. And what others have said, based on Ralph's "sexy girl on a beach" line, I'd expect this to be wide in the front (boobs), narrow in the doors (waist)...

    So I was surfing google...

    Isn't that Ralphie's signature on it? And I like the rear to an extent, well not the 8" exhaust pipes. The front is terrible.

    Another teaser photo posted by SRT on facebook?

    It looks to me like this teaser is of a digital rendering and not an actual car, thus the phony looking CF. That or they are using a different weave/pattern.

    I want the viper but it says 'you no fit'

    I just hope SRT creates a little more room in the Gen V. The GenIII is definitely smaller than the GenII, as far as the coupes are concerned.

    Gen III & IV Values Once 2013 is out?

    What are you talking about??? Your prices are way off. The Viper has never been viewed as a "pretty expensive rare supercar". You just described a Carrera GT, or a CLK GTR, or an Enzo. To anyone who knows the car hierarchy, the Viper has been viewed as an american muscle/american exotic. It...

    Gen III & IV Values Once 2013 is out?

    There is one major factor here you must consider. Modability. Chrysler has a long track record of being the only manufacturer that doesn't support the aftermarket. With each generation car, they make it harder and harder to mod. If they make the Gen V even less mod friendly I could see that...

    Gen III & IV Values Once 2013 is out?

    It was my understanding a full production ready Viper was going to be shown in April at the auto show, for everyone to see.

    Viper crashes into tree near Boca Raton

    I feel like I'm seeing a pattern here...That is it seems like most of these wrecked Vipers are people who bought them used, i.e. much more affordable. I feel like the people buying these new seem to have lot less of a crash rate. Why exactly this is I don't know..

    What about the REAR of the 2013 Viper??!?

    "Actually it was wider and more like a cross between an Aston Martin 77-One rear and a Viper GTS/SRT-10 Coupe. It definitely had a skin over skin look which made it look very wide and was just plain cool. The rear and front end on the VOI111 car were just plain mean and awesome looking as is...

    What about the REAR of the 2013 Viper??!?

    I hope you are wrong. The biggest weakness of the SRT coupe IMO was how tall and flat the rear was. The GTS had dramatic angle changes that made it look very exotic. The SRT seemed to go the vette route by making the largest butt possible. The front of the SRT was fine, it was the rear and the...

    2013 Concept Based on spy photo.

    Why would Porsche, arguably the most profitable car manufacturer on the planet, keep the 911 looking near the same for decades? Because it works. A car like the Viper needs to stick to its overall roots. You can add the modern touches like headlights, tail lights, etc. But overall you want to...

    I got bored....

    Nice that you are making a 3D model. Only thing I must say is the front is too bulky. That would be like a brick going down the road. Work on the front tapering down if you can

    My 2013 Viper Illustration

    Don't like it. And please take "super car" out of the title. Let's not go down that road. The Viper is one hell of a domestic exotic but it is no supercar. Let's leave that moniker for the real super cars.

    a little birdie says......

    Clearly you know nothing about the history of the Viper. The Viper has NEVER been an engineering marvel. The Viper has ALWAYS been the nemesis of engineering marvels such as Porsche. The Viper was almost a frankencar if you will, and it just so happened to be a great performer. The competition...

    a little birdie says......

    Exactly. I know I'll catch **** for this but the more affordable used Vipers have become, the more new people who don't understand the Viper have infiltrated the ranks. The Viper is not a true competitor to the corvette. The vette never has and never will be an exotic. It is a mass produced...
