Ah, thanks for the background info... I really do hope that they hit the monster home run!!! A Gen V ACR with GTS-R body would just be absolutely insane. I'm seriously on the fence now about waiting to see what the next ACR looks like instead of pulling the trigger right away on the GTS as I had...
Yah, I think the design effort is a solid one, but after seeing the GTS-R and Austin's renderings, it does leave room for something 'outrageous' as you pointed out... I really wish that the ACR was debuting at the same time. It seems like a lot of people are hoping for more power and a wider...
Thanks for sharing those pics! The close-ups of the 'go-live' car look great... that said, I'm a little concerned by how the body panels fit together. While I don't expect the test mules to look great, there are some clear places where the panels of the 'go-live' car do not quite align or the...
Being new to the Viper family, can someone fill me in on whether there is a thriving aftermarket for things like hoods, bumpers, etc.? It would suck to have to pay 'extra' to make the SRT/GTS look more like the GTSR, but I would at least be somewhat comforted knowing that there was an avenue to...
Re: Someone please forward this message to Ralph Giles and the rest of the SRT Team-A
Some random thoughts:
- Austin you are a complete bastard! I mean that in the nicest way... :2tu: I was super excited to get the new Viper until I saw your ACR PS... Now I'm debating whether I should wait...
Hehe, too funny!
Yah, I am definitely excited to see more coverage and some shoot-outs against other sport-cars... Definitely jonesing for more coverage! This interview was a great post... definitely a worth-while read.
Loved some of the interesting details like the Fiat Arbath steering wheel...
Hehe, great memory! Yah, you are the only one who has ever noticed - Garet Jax was a character from the book Wishsong of Shannara... He kicked ass and took names... Eventually brought down by the jachyra. He did take out the kraken tho!
I really envy you for seeing the car in person... I can't...
I really love that top down view of the car... As whole, it just screams labor of love, and it is really exciting to be on the waiting list for something that has so much passion behind its design. I also am a fan of the designers not trying to create a design that was all things to all...
After owning a BMW m3 with flappy paddles I can honestly say that, while the seamless shifts were really nice, I felt the overall driving experience to be somewhat dull... I got rid of the car 3 months after buying it. While I think paddles are an inevitable stepping-stone in the evolution of...
Thanks guys! Definitely looking forward to it... The dealer I placed a deposit with said that the ordering process begins in September with a targeted delivery of December, approximately... ugh, talk about a long wait!
As a former Porsche guy (x3), I'm really excited to have a deposit in on the new viper... It is so very evident that the Gen V was a labor of love, and I'm excited to own something with a little more soul than my 911 turbo, which while a complete beast, just lacked excitement. I really think the...
