Awesome, thanks for sharing! On another note, the red with white stripes have usually been for final editions right? First one I've seen on the 2013's, pretty cool :)

Also, looks like your stripes are just a bit narrower on the front bumper than the Red/White GTS Hood car behind you?

Thanks everyone, I am stoked.

These are all now 2014s not 13s. That is the same red that was offered on the 2013

It does look like my stripes taper a bit more that the red one but could be just the angle of the picture, not sure.

I'm waiting for some better pictures. I think I like them as well. Will post when I get them.
I also think the hood is more aggressive, glad I waited for it.

On cars where the stripes are a contrasting color with the body straight looks just a little off somehow, like they don't flow with the rest of the lines of the car. But this, this is great! And it gives me inspiration that white stripes could look good on my car.

The Gen V is absolutely beautiful and 640hp is fine for most of us. The style and interior are gorgeous. My 2010 Gen 4 is also a super car and if I had the extra cash i would trade it in a minute for the new one.
I appreciate all you guys buying the new Viper so they keep making them when I have the extra dough to get one.
Thank you to everybody that bought one.

I misspoke when I said 2013, meant to say Gen V. Also the Red body/white stripe combo seems to be reserved for Final edition GTS/VCA edition Gen III, kind of like the blue body/white stripe combo is used for 96 GTS, First Edition 2006 Gen III and the 2013 Launch edition cars.

Cool they've decided to allow that on normal cars now.

They are on the line. I think 2 came off today. Silver one is my favorite color and looks great when coupled with red seats.

Beautiful car! Congrats!

As a side note, I've noticed that the panel gaps have been largely improved for the 2014s. Much closer fit, and much more consistent.

Dying to see some new pics of GTS-R blue and silver!

Nice!!!! Gotta say that Bumble Bee is gonna be bad to the bone. That red/white is lookin good as well. The guy in the first shot looks like he should be building Vipers.

Aggressive, striknig, in your face! IMO, yellow doesn't look great on most cars, but on Viper it is BadAss.

Thanks, that means a lot coming from a guy with such a fine custom like yours. I did get to spend some time at Prefix and it was a great experience, in fact Eric told me what was involved in your custom paint job, they do beyond excellent IMHO
