Which aspect of the Viper design element do you like the most? All generations included. For example, i love the side profile of the Viper, especially how the curvaceousness of the front fender leaves such a big openning that you get to see a glimpse (albeit a small one) of what's underneath the hood. Thanks!

"Clam shell hood" of the Gen 1 & 2
The Gen III engine compartment is much easier to get at, but I wish they had made it with a clam shell hood.

What the hell is covering the vent grills on the blue / white in the above pictures?
So so many. Two things among many that I love.
1. The way the hood opens on a GEN 1 or 2.
I think they look so KEWL with the unique shape of the hood, and the front pivot point.
Like nothing else. You can tell thats a Viper a mile away. Reminds me of a bat wing.
2. The double bubble roofline on the GTS. Often times when sitting at a light and I glance in the mirror, I can see the people behind me making a hand gesture simulating the bubble roof line, while describing it to someone in the car. Very distinctive and unique.
Edit: Oh well, I see Andrew beat me to it as I was uploading the pic....

Don't know, That was Jay's SS Viper at Moroso. He runs with Chuck a lot at Sebring and Homestead. He may know.

coming & going. I love the looks of a GTS with stripes coming at you, and I love the rear view of it slithering away...

Hood, curves (especially GTS), and just the overall rawness of a Gen I & II.

Vipers have a huge emotional whallop, hits you in the gut. Its a very **** machine.
Only a few Gen3s hit me that same way. (apologies in advance)

The rear view of my 93 without the top on; wiiiide and looooow augmented by those super wiiiide tires.

I like the rear fender/roof panel part line, follow from the end of the spoiler over the fender, down the door from back to front then into the hood/front fender swoop cut-out. From a rear three quarter view, it can't be beat.

I like that they are built for the track: Pre tapped for 5 point harnesses, sport shims and adjustable shocks (wish the last was a bit easier!).

I gotta say the wide, low stance. Even with all of the other elements that make it amazing (the gills, the hood, the side sills, the curved doors and the roadster aspect of the RT/10) if it wasn't low and wide, it would not look exotic.
