Will370z Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Loved the viper but im really not sold on the look of the new one. Too much going on and not a fan of the front. From the side looks like 2 separate cars bolted together. http://www.evo.co.uk/news/evonews/28138 ... viper.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zugara Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Just ashame the seats look like mine in the Merc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hmm right. This coming from an original GTS viper fan, loved its looks, captured my little kiddy mind when I was young. Wasn't the best car in the world, interior wasn't particularly special but the shear presence of the thing and the pace. I think the GTS looked fantastic... http://www.nzmoparregistry.com/assets/m ... viper1.jpg That big 'pet elephant' syndrome.. you just would lol. The new one I see what you mean... its the front...theres something not quite right, I keep wanting to say its the height of the front bumper, looks as if it comes down too much, but I dunno. Bonnets a bit over done. The side and especially from the rear 3/4 view looks fantastic... http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2013-dod ... to-4940621 Autoblog have got a couple of vids and it looks better in the flesh. In all I think its still brilliant, it apes the original GTS ...WHICH IS GREAT.... cos the last one the SRT... was crap. Its looks weren't nice at all and just..dull. Well Done Dodge for bring it back properly I say! And... (not to be a big 26 yr old kid or that... forza 4 are bringing it out on DLC... not touched it in ages. That might change... lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 oh dear they have got it wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Noooo no they haven't... its the front bit only, just doesn't sit right somehow. I won't accept people saying the back and side of it is wrong.. cos its basically the same as the original lol (disgruntled viper fanlol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSet Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I'd like to see some proper photos, ones that aren't taken indoors with varying degrees of artificial lighting and possibly photoshoped. Does look good though Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 It's a fairly mean looking machine, especially when you ad into the equation those specs. But will probably still handle like a small boat. Just a shame the seats look like mine in the Merc Nice interior, but doesn't look as modern as most of the cars coming out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 hhhmmmm doesn't look quite right! in this pic looks liek it's been snapped and is sagging in the middle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmck13 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Wouldn't refuse one if you gave it to me, but just a tad over-designed in the body, too much roundy bits, if you know what I mean. I agree about the seats I have these in blue on my old SLK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Thats hideous. To be fair though, thats as nice an interior as I've seen on an American car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMT Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 No your not the only one! lol Its meant to sag in the middle! its apeing the original. And yes i do agree it seems overly designed. thats the thing nowadays (hes says being... 26) older cars looked great because there was hardly any mess and design in them, simple flowing lines. Now modern cars (especially if trying to copy an older one) have too much effort input, style overtime, angles here and there. They should have kept the rough design, proportions, but left out all the vents and fixed the front proportion a bit. I'm fine with the side and rear. ... I'm fighting a loosing battle. Good job I like Zeds... or use would all get it! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vik54 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I don't think you can judge anything by a photo really Its certainly a very aggressive stance - almost dragster-like I'm on the fence at the mo' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vik54 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Oooof hang on I'm not on the fence anymore 8.4 V10 ...but they've added ESP Play to the end - although they haven't been allowed to drive it you at least get to hear it started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 That's my next car. In black, with red interior highlights. I may have to grow a third testicle in order to have enough manliness to actually drive it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dblock Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I love it. Looks more euro/Ferrari than older models. How does a massive car like that with an 8.4litre V10. Weighless than a 350? It's American too!! Amazing cars though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK-Ultra Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 That's my next car. In black, with red interior highlights. I may have to grow a third testicle in order to have enough manliness to actually drive it, though. And then sell it in order to fill the tank every 10 miles!!! 8.4 litre V10 is going to be thirsty to say the least, but my god would it be an experiance to drive!!
