Yeah, not too smooth at all... rather pixelated, I'd say.

I still think the scoop is in the c-pillar.

Default Double Post FTW!




It looks like they've reverted towards the curvaceousness of the first gen, and also brought back the arching fender vent.

So far, it's looking really damn good.

Overall looking good.. exept that front end from the lower bumper looks kinda like the Evora GTE... and doesnt feature the tradition "cross" from the previous gen vipers ( --|-- )

Dude this thing has THREE what appear to be functional hood vents. This thing is gonna be ridiculous as all hell.

This car is more Lamborghini than Lamborghini.

Lamborghini for a long time was all about audaciousness. It stood out and looked crazy and made you go, WOW! Look at that!

I will admit the new Eventtader is a slight return to the crazy ethos of past from the milk toast Lambos of modern times, but it's just not bat **** insane enough.

This new Viper looks to play that part awesomely. I would love to shake hands with a person who buys one...up until he stabs me for trying to steal his thoughts because he's obviously crazy as hell.

Yeah, I know what you meant...

So far, this represents everything the first gen Viper stood for... and that is awesome. I can't wait to see this go up against the next Corvette.

Holy hot damn if they are bringing back the fender vent from the first gen, I'll be in love.

Terrible quality....horrible..

Leave it to American car companies to make brutish engines with bad carbon footprints with terrible interior...

This reminds me of the time i was driving my vauxhall round the roundabout down in the shire.
