Gen 5 Dodge Viper

I don't know what it is but it's made of carbon fiber so that's a good start.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Yeah I found it weird that they didn't even announce a teaser, they just posted it.

 

[RocZX]

It like like a hood scoop/vent.

 

[GTPorsche]

That just showed up on twitter from autoblog. Thought I was going to be posting something brand new.

 

[psntomaz]

It could be the Heat extractors that were on the GTS vipers with a lil view of the Air vents on top..


Or it could be a new feature like a air scoop on the Pillar with a view of the intergrated rear spoiler from the GTS cars.

 

[Omnis]

Bet it's a door handle.

 

[psntomaz]

Umm.. As you see thiers no Line where the Door could open.. Its a Rear Dif cooling Vent on the Passenger side B-Pillar... which has grown quite a bit

 

[Skython]

I agree that it's either a hood scoop or a Rear scoop at the rear infront of the rear spoiler. I first thought it was the side of the car, on the door but it seems as if it goes up more at the top left. I'd go with a rear scoop.

This is the first time Teasers have honestly teased me!

I'm going with brake duct on the front bumper.

 

[Keef]

It reminds me of the shape of those pillowy vents on 1st-gen hoods, except this is actually shaped like a vent. No idea what that anomoly in the corner is though.

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

Perhaps the hood is open and you're looking down at front bumper?

 

[Keef]

Ah, interesting thought. That seems to suggest a clamshell hood!

I believe that is fake. I mean since when did 1/43 hotwheels cars have front turning wheels?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Mainline Hotwheels are 1/64 scale anyway. (or close to)

But when they do a 'pre-render' of the car for it's packaging they will turn the front wheels like so:

It's a packaging render.

 

[GTPorsche]

More spy shots.

Damn, I keep seeing prototypes running around here but I can never manage to snag a photo. The test mules though looks really, really awkward but then again all the ones I've seen are a back half of the old one and the new one undercover much like the spyshots.

Thank you for that information.

Jalopnik

 

[G.T.Ace]

Looks like an SLS on steroids, not bad.

 

[eSZee]

Looks like a Vipette or a Corper.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Don't understand all the secrecy when we pretty much know it's going to look like cars from the past.

 

[Stavelot]

You sir do not understand hype and suspense.

 

[RocZX]

They have all the secrecy so people would talk about it more, how they think it would look, and when they show it at the auto show it will get more press coverage .

I love how they incorporated the first Viper's curved hood outlet in front of the doors. 👍👍

 

[ND4SPD]

Looks like an updated GTS. Because of this, it is instantly a win in my books!

 

[Spacegoat]

Based on that rendering, it looks like a return to the classic GTS design. I love it. 👍

You know what we all missed? The 30th birthday of the Viper...well, 30th birthday to the day it first went on sale, anyway. What's more it joins the Jaguar XJ220 in those 30 years. The Viper has been almost continuously produced from '92, and the Jag, hasn't, but the fact that these two share their birthday is quite cool.
