I like the new Viper badge. Beside that it's truly a tease. Judging by that picture alone the car could be excellent or awful. It's gonna be a long wait till April.
 
Its gona look like a Snake no matter what!! The Viper is probably the only Car that resemebles its name the most.. 2nd before last Gen Firebird came close
 
I just want more now. Though I don't like the shape of that double bubble personally. But even then it must stay because since we haven't seen an entire car yet. It could suit this sharp edge. Back to the GTS days we go! But with a modern spin!
 
It looks very wide eyed, very much like Skython's avatar now that I look at it!
 
Hey, congratulations... 10,000 likes!

Now, if they get another 10,000 likes, maybe they'll add three or four more lines to that picture!

Seriously... all that build-up for a picture that probably took all of half-an-hour to draw...
 
I just meant wide, or broad in general. A bug eyed Viper would be very strange.

I'd prefer a GTS body shape to an RT/10 as well, personally.
 
Maybe a modernized version. Let's be honest, the GTS was one of the schmexiest cars to ever hit the road. The hips on that thing...mmm.

Spot. On.

It can even pull off double white stripes.

I'm so happy to see that the official teaser seems to look nothing like so many of the impressions out there - the Viper WILL still be amazing after all!

Too bad about the April release though - the Toronto auto show is in February so I won't get to see it. :grumpy:
 
Am i the only one who thinks that those headlights look like two eyes :odd:

Still, pretty sick, can't wait to see the full version!

HID projectors and it probably have an LED bar along the bottom of the light.

A nod to the Chrysler 300, I assume. As long as it isn't there just to be like Audi, I'm fine with it.

I'm glad they're starting out with the coupe. Nothing against the convertible, it is after all the way the Viper began from the start, but the coupe has always been the best-looking of the models.

Vipers always look like more modernized versions of the old one.
 
The new logo, Stryker, does nothing more than reinforce the assertion that they're returning to where it all began: The RT/10 and GTS.

I like it, no, I love it. A lot.

I always thought Sneaky Pete was so fitting for the original Vipers, esp. the GTS. You'd have a smug-looking emblem to go with the smug-face you'd have when you drive one. :P

:lol:

You know what would be awesome? If Dodge went the additional mile and remade "Viper". That is, after all, one of the major contributors to the Viper's fame.


That logo is awesome.
Isn't it?

I love how just the emblem implies "Don't you even dare."

That'd be an interesting attempt. But, I think the past decade has shown that car-oriented shows are just unpopular. It didn't help when that terrible remake of "KITT" barely paid any sort of homage to the original.
 
New Viper logo is definitely last place, though I could live with a GTS inspired car. The performance is what really matters though. I want to see a weight number, and hopefully some downforce even in non ACR form (and I really hope for an even crazier ACR).
 
There was a post on Autoblog a day or two ago about how similar the new logo looks to the Flying Lizard Porsche team logo.
 
I just love the name "Sneaky Pete", considering it's impossible to sneak up on anything in a Viper. Kinda funny.

It's more than possible, so long as the thing you are sneaking up on is also a Dodge Viper... or a redneck's truck.:sly:
 
The new Stryker logo is a big improvemnt over Fangs in my opinion, but nothing can ever match the awesome Sneaky Pete logo.
