2013 Viper Poll

[BigDawg]

It's not at all ugly. It's just incomplete.

Seeing the pic of it next to the GTS-R on the track epitomizes what I am getting at. It looks tame, mundane, and watered down. There are a lot of great things about the new design, but no one can argue that this is considered an "aggressive" look. I like the side profile a lot. The rear end complete kills me. The shot from the back makes the car look narrow and tall. It doesn't flow right.

I think most people who aren't balding middle age men will agree with me, the GTS-R minus the extreme race stuff is how the street car should have looked. Those wider fenders just scream exotic. The car makes sense. I don't think Ralph is stupid. I think SRT purposely watered down the GTS so that they can sell a more expensive and extreme model in the future.

I think the car looks amazing as well as aggressive (btw I am under 30 and have all my hair ) Now just to get one out here on the west coast to go look at.

 

[ssjcreeper]

Yesterday, didn't care for it. Today, after soaking up more and more pix... love it! Just had to grow on me I guess.

 

[cpperhead1]

In Canada the GTS will cost $140 K plus 13 % tax .. Gulp
Think i'm Keeping my 2010 ACR and buy a used Ferrari instead !..
Additionally I just dont think a Ferrari or Maserati or Porche person will buy the new viper

 

[SnakeBitten]

That confused unviperlike front end and the super small looking front rim/tire compared to the rear rim/tire stops me from being in love with it. Everything else I like...ESPECIALLY the interior.

 

[slysnake]

I have to admit that I don't hate it. I wouldn't say that I love it either. Really would like to see it in person.

 

[Pythonpete]

it's a ****-@SS GTS...BTW the expected price is $137,000.00

There had better be $25K cash in the trunk for that price.

 

[PDCjonny]

it is definitely beautiful.
Is it intimidating?

 

[ACR steve]

$137,000 is fully loaded ..........thereare lots of options
The car is sick and the power to weight ratio is amazing . Ralph and the wholeSRT should be very proud to make this world leading car. It is amazing that wenow have a car that has a better power to weight ratio as a LamborghiniAventador and a Ferrari interior for between $100,000 - $140,000 depending on options.
Long Live The Viper

P.S. the ALMS car is one of the most amazing race cars I have ever seen.......and I have seen a lot

 

[ssjcreeper]

The ALMS car looked incredible. How about the next ACR carrying over much of the ALMS themes? That would make for one killer asp.

[killerviper]

sick, love the gen 2 cues on the side profile as well as the rear.

 

[PJ9454]

It looks too feminine. Park an ACR alongside it and the ACR will steal the show. The ACR has a mean front end with a splitter, canards, big hood louvers, wing, just an evil looking car. Then you look over at the 2013 Viper and Paris Hilton gets out of it with her dog in her purse. They need to "man" this car up before I will part with my ACR

 

[ExplorerThis]

Undecided. I was more of a gen3/4 guy soooo.


What do I know I sold my viper for a rustang!

 

[uvbnbit]

Voted "love it" , but more like "really like" it. But am blown away by the GTS-R. I'd like to have one of those

Why do you have to insult balding middle-aged men to make your point? I am not balding, but I am middle-aged. Does that mean I have lost my sense of "coolness" just because I have been around a few more years? I think the car has lost a little of the "muscle look" at least in pictures--I may change my mind in person (2D image vs. 3D).

Just remember two things my friend:

1. If it were not for balding middle-aged men this car would not be built because the majority of buyers fit that description (at least the middle-aged part).

2. Someday you will get older just like us and Karma can be a *****.

 

[SnakeBitten]

Hey Im middle aged but not balding. I know a few guys in there 20's that are balding lol. So the two arent necessarily linked

i do think the car got a bit feminized for the lack of a better word. But its only apparent to me from the much less aggressive and un-snakelike front end treatment.

 

[99 R/T 10]

Just got back from the unveil and the new Viper is really nice. Better in person than from the pictures. But OMG...the new GTSR is absolutely wicked, WICKED! IMO, it stole the show standing next to the new Viper. But the interior on the new Viper is stunning. Launch control, stability control, active suspension, and even electric adjustable seats up and down. Ralph said that the new Viper gains 3 more inches of seat travel to accomodate the taller folks. It's a stunning Viper in person. I love the Gen2-cues in the new Viper. I'm not a fan of the engine coverings...it does come across as plasticky-feeling to me. The crossbrace was a nice touch making this Viper 50% stiffer than the 2010! But that GTSR is sick, can't waint to see it racing in american lemans.

I hope they come out with an ACR option and add the GTS-R body effects and a boost in HP to 700...................................That would make this car a killer

Yep, I agree. If they do that...I will buy one.

 

[PDCjonny]

Yep, I agree. If they do that...I will buy one.

Could you imagine that!
First sub 7:00 'Ring time in a production car....

 

[ViperTony]

Is it intimidating?

With the GTSR next to it last night, no.

 

[shooter_t1]

Could you imagine that!
First sub 7:00 'Ring time in a production car....

Oh ya, I can imagine that

 

[ScrewDrvr]

its not ugly, but I just wasn't expecting a GTS with a body kit....

 

[Leojmcca]

Hey, there is a new generation of Vipers..that's enough for me.

Front view looks like a Ferarri 550. Would like the black out grille to go all the way down.
Side view is dead on GTS reborn to me.
Rear view looks like an Aston Martin

Overall, it's nice. so it doesn't have 700HP, I don't remember to many people complaining about how slow their Gen. IV's were.

 

[Red Mist Viper]

Love it, however looking forward to future upgrades to the body and 700hp.

 

[neo_rambo]

you need to show the image from the front and rear. The side clearly looks like the viper the front looks like a ferrari f12 and the rear of a aston martin. Absolutely hate it totally back asswards in design! They should have never listened to any owners and designed it how they thought fit. They designed the first viper and the gts without our input which turned out to be the best and most edgy design of it's time highly sought after even today. Why should they listen to owners now Big mistake!

 

[FastMatt]

Love everything but the 640hp, I realy wish it had been in the 700-750 range

 

[PDCjonny]

Overall, it's nice. so it doesn't have 700HP, I don't remember to many people complaining about how slow their Gen. IV's were.

True but with the 100HP leap from Gen 3 to Gen 4...and with the gossip...all indications were more.

 

[fred]

There had better be $25K cash in the trunk for that price.

And you know that many dealers will tack on $5 or $10,000 to the MSRP for the every popular "ADM" ( translate additional dealer margin )

 

[VIPER GTSR 91]

NOT sure on this model. Will have to see it when Tomball gets one. The interior is a 10 except the red color IMO. Was really hoping a model like Lee posted last week. The rumored 660 HP would of been better too but really like the brace over the motor. Styling is very questionable except the exhaust outlets which I really like. Pricing for the GTS is way too high. Probably will keep my 09 ACR.

 

[Fatboy 18]

Love it, Great to see the Viper and SRT making something like this in these times, well done.
There are a couple of things Im not too keen on, but overall its stunning

Sorry, I keep looking at the front nose and its reminding me of this!
