someone needs to check the IP on ICP, me thinks he knows more than he's letting on... :)

Design speculations!

The Orlando Viper, from what I gather was a hit. Case in point, Ralph stunned everyone and got the board immediate approval. This is like seeing the Mona Lisa painting for the first time, everyone was in awe!

SRT Viper design team excells at what it does. According to viewers, Viper DNA was written all over it....and rightly so, the credit should go where it belongs! :2tu:

I had a rotton couple days at work and come home and read this great news or at least solid rumor. I respectfully disagree with the V8 option. Like any other bait and switch, the base V8 Viper will probably be the same price as the current FE editions but the true V10 Viper will be priced much higher, possibly up to $150k or more. Watch into the future a couple years as Viper production ramps up and we see 4-5 V8 cars for every one V10 and they look the same. The Viper at this time ceases to be exotic. I am really amped about the rumored NA 700 hp and the Gen I - II styling cues.

I got the see the drawing a year ago, and I told a few VCA board memebrs that it was not only the most aggresive Viper syling I had ever seen, but simply the baddest ass Car I had even seen. The Viper Nation will be on its knees at VOI hailing Ralph Gilles as " were not morthy, were not worthy" for quite an ovation!

The anticipation to see the new car is unbelievable . I am so glad Ralph is at the helm !!! You had to have known if there was anything he could do to keep the Viper going he would . He has amazing design and vision. A true car guy , I am very excited for the details to be released !!!

As long as it doesn't look like that R&T photo I'm excited. That photo looks like a Viper crossed with a BMW Z4.

Don't you know those in the know are just laughing their asses off at all of this by those that don't know.

three questions for the cops around here who also own vipers.

1. who is going to VOI?

2. are any of you "police sketch artists"?

3. last question for the sketch artists - how good are you at drawing a car?

Steve if I may, I recall seeing a framed drawing of what could be a Gen V Viper that Ralph did. I remember it being a drawing from atop and the car was red white stripes and had the gen I/II 'hood speakers' on it. I have that picture saved somewhere.

At the 2009 Pocono CSD Ralph donated several posters of the GenV concept shown here. There are more pics of this concept. Some lucky VCA member won the raffle and has these drawings in their safe. :) Hopefully, the can post pics here.

I could go for that. Hood looks like a variant of one of the original 1992 concept drawings for consideration. The blue one with the partial black Mustang Mach III hood.

That would be George, our regions event's Coordinator. I believe he has them hanging on the wall in his house.

I'm surprised he hasn't posted a picture yet as well.
