Viper headlights come straight from the Koenigsegg Agera

[FR305]

Has anyone noticed the resemblance? I think SRT should have made the top leds light up the same as in the Agera headlights.

it looks good on the agera, but it doesn't look VIPER.

Agreed. Main thing I hate about it is the damn headlights.

 

[slysnake]

Ooo, that's a nice looking car....................... except for the headlights.

 

[Paul Hawker]

Those lights look like an angry girl with rhine stone eyelashes.

Like the Viper snakey look better. (but I see the similarities)

yes i noticed and said that in a thread here the day i saw the car in NYC.

good to know I am not the only one who sees it I was wondering why nobody had made the connection before

 

[phavyarden]

Completly agree i just hope in a couple of years a facelift with different headlights, this one's are too european 4 me

 

[05Commemorative]

I am just happy the cartoon headlights of the past are gone. I really like the new ones and they really have the snake look and add great presence to the car.

I said the same thing in another thread. Thought I was the only one that saw the eyelashes. It does add a bit of femininity that the previous gens didnt have imho. It does look much better on the Agera as it compliments its styling better..

Tell me this

Love the car overall but those lights remain a ***** in the armor for me. Imho they should give the SRT Viper and ACR the fogs from the GTSR version. Leave the GTS with this treatment as its the Grand Tourer. The Viper needs its mean grill back....

 

[BigDawg]

Yup. I was the first to say that (where's my cookie?)

The Viper remains a contradiction of styles. There's the grill that tries to blend in Dodge styling even though it's now an SRT. The hood has bulges and cavities. Window weatherstrip is still classic Viper, ie looks like crap. A Hyundai coupe does a better job. Headlights are too big and make the front look narrower. And the lack of fogs *****. And the overall design being curves with edges doesn't work IMHO.

Imagine if the internet existed from the early 1900s to the 1970s, when all head lights were typically round..

What edges are you speaking to? Seeing it in person, it is all curves so not following the edges you are seeing.

I do not believe that the Fed allows a car to have both LED and Fog lights. Could be wrong, but do not see fog lights on other led equiped cars such as Audi R8 and Agera

 

[jcaspar1]

Wish they would ditch the LED's. They are going to be as out of style in 5 years as the gold trim on a Lexus.

 

[VIPER PIT]

Yep. Give me my gen 1 gen 2 snake eyes back pleeeeeaaase!

 

[TonyCool]

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who hate the headlights. I hadn't notice the similarities to the Agera but I can definitely see it. In my opinion if the car had gen3/4 headlights and foglights and a less European front bumper it would look so much better. Also I like the six vents hood much better glad SRT is providing both. The rest of the car is really cool.

Yes, the headlights don't match the rest of the car to me. As far as imitation goes, it could be worse I suppose... *cough* corvette. Also, I don't know why some of you don't like the SRT style 03-10 headlights. I thought those looked really good. Perhaps I am biased as I have that Gen. Let's focus on the positives though. Overall, it's a beautiful car and I'm still going to get one, headlights be damned.

 

[TonyCool]

I love the new car but this might have worked better regarding the headlights and the fog lights.

Not the best edition work but you get the idea.

I'm thinking that lots of people actually like those "cartoon" headlights that you speak of.
