    Help Finding Thread

    When the latest generation was first introduced, someone posted a design of his version of the coupe. It was a profile shot. The design had a bit more curves than the actual car. I can't find the thread. Does this ring a bell with anyone.:confused:

    ATTENTION STEVE FERGUSON!! SRT COUPE SIGHTED!!!!

    Manny, I will personally start a petition to have you lead the design team for the Viper Street Coupe. There's more Viper in the picture you posted than all of the Gen III built to date including the Comp Coupe! Maybe a little adjustment here or there but you've got Viperness down cold.

    Startech SRT-10 to debut at Geneva

    Did they modify the front head lights? From the one picture, it appears that the insides of both lights are more pointed. That is, they appear to be sharper toward the hood. :confused:

    What is this man talking about?

    Last Superbird I saw was in New Wilmington Pa in the 70s. Guy wanted to sell it. I didn't buy as price was "too high". One of the many "I should ofs" in my life! Some day I'll tell one and all about the 429 ci single overhead cam Ford Mustang I passed up!

    What is this man talking about?

    "My friend is a regular at the MOPAR forum, and recently the President of Dodge wrote a letter on the forum explaining that Dodge is doing a full re-evaluation of their products, and lowering the price on their sports cars to make them affordable to the everyday consumer. Chances are that there...

    Eliminating noises we don't want... a tech question for you.

    Re: Eliminating noises we don\'t want... a tech question for you. The SU-27 is still in production and export in many variations. One of the best export products they have. India and China are two countries that fly them.

    Eliminating noises we don't want... a tech question for you.

    Re: Eliminating noises we don\'t want... a tech question for you. You will muck up the aerodynamics. Polishing the inside of the wheel wells is an old racers trick from the early salt flat days and NASCAR, still in use today. There's an awful lot of turblence in the wheel wells and some...

    Nov Car&Driver SRT road test... what did you think?

    This is a reply to the test. I haven't driven the car yet. First, there is absolutely no excuse for a modern car with tires specifically designed for it to exhibit bump steer. None! We know too much about suspension grometery and tire performance to let that happen. Second, the control of...

    Proposed Styling Test

    Tuesday, before the Nashville event, I saw a black SRT-10 in Nashville, top down going south on West End Avenue just before the 440 junction. I did not recognize the car until it had passed me going in the opposite direction. I propose the following test of styling. Take two red Viper...

    Got some info from a friend in PVO...

    Reminds me of many years ago when the "original" Mustang concept car was a mid-rear engined V-4. Ford looked at who liked it and said, these aren't the customers we want. Maybe the same thing is happening here. Maybe Dodge doesn't want the buyers who liked the Gen I and Gen II. Could be...

    Question for Steve

    "Boys, mark my words now, "the GT40 may be a small threat, but the real BIG threat will come from GM, and from the hands of the Viper creator."!!!!!!!!!! If all goes well, I will be reading a letter I already have at VOI, and I think you will then better understand why I am not as concerned...

    red srt-modified realistic through aftermarket.

    You need to modify the fender line for the rear. Take the peak just above the rear wheel and slope the line into the front door at about the hinge by the mirror. The present straight line from the front alll the way to a hump above the rear wheel throws the whole thing into a cocked hat...

    Here comes the coupe, here comes the coupe, everybody say here comes the coupe

    As I recall my schooling, the free enterprise system works like this. The producer brings an offering to the market. The consumer indicates his or her preference by buying or not buying the offering. The message to the producer is clear. If you like the Gen III, by all means buy it. If...
