OSOLMIO Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/autos_content_landing_pages/1518/the-future-of-viper/ thoughts? i say hell yeah SURE if the stylists/designers don't get too stupid with the straight edge. Towards the end the Viper lost its curves and became more angular ala the VW designed Lamborghinis. Maybe it is because I am an old freak but I do like curves in some cars, like the Porsche and the Cayman model in particular. I like the old style wedges too like the Fiat X1/9 but more so the DeTomaso Pantera. But yes by all means bring it back and for me if I could afford it the coupe is my favorite body style of the two.

BrIaN EG2 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 i say no... not a viper fan, for the money you would pay for one you could make a track car that would be soo much quicker.. actually sport compact car magazine did that in a issue last year.. got a evo that had as much money as it would cost to buy a viper in it and it ran alot faster than a viper around a track.. i say the car is just a waste of money, they should just retire the car IMO..

diablo2dusk Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 brian, shut up, that applies to almost any supercar nowadays. i say go for it but for christ sake stop making them uglier and uglier!

Shanebot90 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 as far as i remember, the viper ACR is the fastest production car (on the track). I remember hearing about it holding the fastest track time in the nurburgring, beating that of the GTR, ZR-1, and any of the lambo's and ferrari's out there. Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.

Bravesball20 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 The new engine sounds sexy. I think they need to completely make over the viper or have a 20th anniversary viper in 2012 that looks the the first one. I do love the 3rd gen. Viper though. Maybe it's just because it was more around the time I really got into cars. Or just because it is a beautiful car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
