Now that I am spending yet another summer with the GTS, I have made the following observations on the car's "magnetism":
Here's who it attracts:
1. Teenage boys
2. Adolescents of all types
3. Car guys
4. The occasional woman, but it is very, very, very rare. And she usually has tats, a pack of smokes and leather skin.
Here's who it repulses:
1. Corvette owners (for obvious reasons that must be respected)
2. Anyone who is showing their car off and your Viper drives by and all the looks go away from their car.
3. Most women. And that's the part that *****.
Now I recognize, the really cool chicks "get it." But when I take the GTS out for a spin (sans the wifey), it would be a real nice bonus to have a pretty woman checking out the car, and perhaps the guy who is driving it. But instead the Viper magnetism seems to be more like an ice cream truck, every kid comes a-runnin', but where's the ladies?!?!?
This is obviously a pro-Viper biased forum (I mean,for one thing I am really biased to the Viper) so I think it is easy to argue pro-Viper and that I must be driving around towns here in NJ with blind women. But, honestly, have ya'll noticed the same thing? Doesn't it seem that most women aren't turning their heads for the Viper? Doesn't the Mercedes and the such, get more looks?
