    If more downforce is needed.

    However, you have to brake more often, which builds up heat in the brake pads and rotors, causing them to fade after a few hot laps. Not to mention the loss of high-speed stability incurred by giving up the wings. It will use whatever it needs to use to meet its parameters at the appropriate...

    2013 dealers list for the sale of SRT Viper??

    I'd say the 25k is to prevent dealers from getting ahold of one just to bring in crowds.

    Completely Objective Post on Pricing... Inflation calculations...

    It's really hard to calculate inflation on an item that's not really simple like food or water or gasoline.

    Motor Trend 1st drive in new Viper

    I wonder how a body-color pinstriping would look on the split crosshair grill.

    AUTOWEEK First Gen 5 drive posted on their Website

    The 6th gear in previous vipers existed solely for increasing highway mpg. Now that they've replaced 6th gear with a shorter ratio, the fuel economy suffers. TANSTAAFL

    Pic of SRT Hood

    I dare anybody on this forum to come up with a design that's 100% original and highly functional.

    Nurburgring predictions-

    haha you mean not sanctioned at all? And hopefully the 10mm wider tires will translate into a wider contact patch and softer rubber. Remember the tires they developed even have different compounds from front to back, specifically designed for this car.

    My personal impressions of the Gen V

    Is the ride height on the GTS static, or does it change with the different suspension modes?

    Gen V Viper in blue from Motortrend

    The next big lighting technology will probably be OLEDS that can be made into any shape. I'm sure there will be people complaining, "where are all the little light bulbs!" and "these OLED thingys are just a fad."

    Gen V Viper in blue from Motortrend

    I see black rubber wheels on every four door sedan, japanese import, etc... so apparently your point is just because some technology is used in an unappealing fashion on mass-produced vehicles, it doesn't have any place on a Viper. And as far as LEDs being a fad, they are no more fad than...

    Gen V Viper in blue from Motortrend

    You gonna replace them with carbide lamps? The only people I hear complaining about the LEDs are just too damn old to appreciate the technology... You're the same people who complain the bright light button isn't still on the floorboard "where it belongs."

    Gen V Viper in blue from Motortrend

    When will you guys quit complaining about LED lights? The integrated units the Gen V uses are much lighter than the previous setup... I thought you guys were all about function over form? Next thing you know, you'll be complaining about those silly pneumatic tires, or those flashy 4-wheel disc...

    Gen V Viper Top Gear Test Track

    It will still try to kill them, maybe a little more subtly with the nannies, but 600 lb-ft of torque is enough to put anybody in the hospital if they don't know how to use it properly.

    Some time has passed - these are my IMOs

    Chuck, it seems like your problem lies with government regulation, not the Gen V itself. Maybe you're displacing your anger a bit.

    Anybody else worried about 1st year production issues?

    I'm pretty sure I remember someone stating that the window regulators had been redesigned for the new gen.

    Actually....

    Glad SRT decided to offer separate models instead of a supeposition of the 2. I'm gonna guess the ACR will have the ammenities of the base Viper, with options for even less inside.

    Gen V Motor Trend Article

    From Motor Authority: "We also learned that the Viper team hasn't taken the new snake to the Nurburgring, yet. But they expect to beat the old Viper's time without a problem when they head back to the 'Ring either in the fall or early spring next year"...
