Gen 5 Dodge Viper

[Cowboys965]

Yeah. But there was nothing really special about the car other than that. If I were SRT, I would've made the first car a Special Carol Shelby Tribute Edition SRT Viper. And have it Blue with white stripes and maybe come with a Carol Shelby signed picture or something. It would be a tribute to the guy inspired and helped create the first Viper and it would've made it a very rare, one of a kind collector's car.

SRT also mentioned that the car at the show WASN'T car car being auctioned off. The auction was for the first buyable SRT Viper with the VIN # of 0001. Meaning whoever bought it, would have to weight until probably September/October for their car. Why they didn't have the actual car being auctioned off there, i don't know. It seems like that would've driven the price up a little bit, though.

I think that's better for a Ford. Not a Dodge/Chrysler/Ferrari/Fiat.

I need a NSFW warning before any more real Viper pics are posted please.

Looked through the thread for this picture but didn't find it. If it's a repost, sorry!

Posted from Motor Trend:

The pictures of the blue one running with the ACR looks great. And reading from previous posts, am I the only one who likes the second (or as it's called the third gen) Viper? Don't know why but I like that more than the first generation...

Damnit. Thanks for that photo. I now need to purchase a new pair of pants and a computer chair....

I don't care what anyone says- this is still a beautiful car. I have adjusted to it pretty easily. In no way do I see this as some sort of disappointment to the Viper from a style perspective. In fact, I've always seen the Viper as a stylish car. Maybe not European luxury car stylish, but stylish and mean to match its driving and performance character.

Keef's right.

In that first set of photos it looks quite low, in this new photo it looks almost too high.

 

[HELLAFLUSH240SX]

I love the interior of the new Viper, I love the way the tach lights up with the Viper when it's time to shift!

Its not that high in a certain game I play, maybe they have it like that for a reason?

I think the Car is Slamed because it probably has a Adaptive Suspension that lowers the car at HWY speeds plus the Active Areo sucking the car down to the ground.

Is it just me, or do those stupid LEDs look like rope lights from 1985's worst nightclub in Miami?

SRT Meeting:

"Thats a stupid idea. They look like rope lights from 1985's worst nightclub in Miami."

"...Well yeah, but... they had some leftovers from the 458. And Audi does it. They sell a bunch of cars..."

"Ah! You're right! Brilliant. Lets do it."

 

[CodeRedR51]

The whole LED thing going around right now bugs the hell out of me.

I think it's interesting that the absolute tackiest feature of 90's American cars is in vogue again.

Here's the GTS-R during testing at VIR:

EDIT: Also, Maisto has the 1:18th scale version of the 2013 Viper in Red and Black...I might have to pick one of them up.

Why is it supa dupa slammed?

Because photoshop. Look at the trees up top.

 

[SuperShouden]

Oh yeah...but doesn't that mean the blue 2013 Viper might not actually be in that photo, then? When in doubt, throw it out.

SRT-10? I think it looks great. Better than the original. Though the image on the last page with the ACR next to the new car makes the SRT-10 bumper look even bigger than it did already. The rear end on the new car is nearly perfect. And I think from behind the wheel, there's a good chance of it being perfect.

It also looks much, much better blue.

 

[Tornado]

Yeah. Blue seems to go along with the black strip on the back a lot better. Looks great.

Oh good grief....

I don't believe the Blue Viper is whats in question.

 

[SuperShouden]

I know. But if one aspect of a photo is photoshopped, why can't other aspects of the photo be shopped? To me, photoshopping a photo screws up the credibility of the photo.

Wow, I don't really like it in red. Looks like plastic.

The camera-phone definitely caused this.

Chrysler has been doing this with every car they release. Look at the Challenger.
