    Which Viper would you get if you had it to do over?

    I fell in love with the white/blue stripes although the blue/white GTS is my favorite. I've taken pictures twice now to sell the white/blue RT and buy a blue/white GTS but I just CAN'T. I love the open top feel that you just can't get with the GTS. Having said that, I would be happy with any...

    SRT vs Ford GT

    Vic, I think it would be ok as long as you aren't caught kneeling before it! :) LOL! I would do the GT in the blue/orange color scheme, it's just simply AMAZING! 2nd choice would be the with/blue stripes to match my viper! I actually would like to build a GT using a kit such as ERA, but...

    SRT vs Ford GT

    I too agree with Vic... Ford GT, hands down. I think the SRT has a better powerplant but the styling (or lack of) of the SRT does nothing for me. It's just like many other cars on the road now. The FORD GT, well that's something to drool over. It's beautiful, just like the Viper Gen I/II's...

    What the Gen III Coupe could've been & what the Gen IV should be

    Re: What the Gen III Coupe could\'ve been & what the Gen IV should be What the designers did to the Viper post GenII can never be considered "evolutionary" in my opinion. You're supposed to improve on a design. "Japalutionary" maybe, but not "evolutionary". Let's break it down. Muscle cars...

    Graffiti Artist strikes at VOI8! Hood Wasted!

    then again, I didn't see the hood, so maybe it stands out more in person. Maybe if it were my hood, I would feel the same way, dunno.

    Graffiti Artist strikes at VOI8! Hood Wasted!

    The title was HOOD WASTED. Seems a bit dramatic. I just don't think it's worth running someone's name through the mud when all they did was get a little excited and carried away. I don't think they were rude or are morons just because they did this. Careless and less thoughtful than they...

    Graffiti Artist strikes at VOI8! Hood Wasted!

    Looks like there was quite a few other "artists" that drew other things. I wouldn't single anyone out just for some heart they drew. Was there any sign that said, signatures ONLY please? Maybe Janni could be the signature police at the next event. I seriously doubt they meant to offend...

    NEW VIPER COUPE

    btw, if they need help in the design department, I can certainly whip up a new Viper design in 3D. This way we can see all angles rendered, not just photoshop hacks.

    NEW VIPER COUPE

    I'm a bit passionate about this so this may be an emotional outburst with little substance, but... I think the Viper model line may be in trouble. The Viper used to offer something you couldn't get anywhere else. Number one, a driving excitement like none other with raw, race car handling and...

    SRT-10 Coupe - new angle

    Coupe/SRT - you have to try hard to find an angle to make it look great. GTS/RT10 - you have to try hard to find an angle where it doesn't look great. I think one of the worst things to say about a design is, "it will grow on you". A great design doesn't have to grow on you. That should be...

    NEW VIPER COUPE

    No doubt however, that the folks representing the coupe are getting nothing but positive reviews. If I were there, I would probably be saying nice things to them too, like oh, nice car. Nice color, nice... blah blah blah. Same thing when I see people in SRT's. I don't want to hurt their...

    I showed some people the pics of the coupe concept and ....

    That was the reaction to all my friends when the SRT came out. I think the coupe is DEFINATELY better looking than the SRT, but it's got a long way to go to be in the same league (design wise) as the original RT/GTS. I look at the coupe concept and the SRT and see japanese, I look at the...

    Couple of other SRT-10 Coupe pics.

    You are right and you make my point. It's the rage these days. But what about tomorrow? I think the best designs are designs that stand the test of time. This will not because as you said, it seems to be today's fashion. I happen to think the BMW z4 design is a step backward from the z3...

    Couple of other SRT-10 Coupe pics.

    I for one am not impressed. I looked the pictures over and over trying to determine why I don't think it's a good design. Some of my thoughts... - Conflicting styles. The car has some nice curves but also abrupt and sharp angles. This doesn't work well. It looks like they tried to take...

    Put a modded GTS in it's place last night.

    Re: Put a modded GTS in it\'s place last night. A GTS doesn't need to be "put in it's place". A GTS already has it's place in history as perhaps one of the top 5 best looking cars of all time. Can't say that for the SRT in any stretch.

    The beginning of a very bad trend.

    Bottom line is that each generation has it's positives and negatives. (slightly revised) Gen I - Blows everyone away with it's beautiful styling and raw power. Driving one feels like being in a race car. Not everyone likes that and it's definately not a daily driver since there were no real...

    yes, I'm sorry, I should have stated that.

    The beginning of a very bad trend.

    GTS Bruce, you are right on the money, unfortunately. The new SRT is bland in comparison and the new z06 will probably be a better car with equal or even better styling than a srt. Can't say the same about the Gen I/II. They were timeless designs with raw, unmatched power. DC fell asleep at...

    Warning about Elite Motorsports

    It would be nice to hear the other side of the story. My thought is that there may not be another side of the story that the other side wants to tell. We certainly don't need another HENNE**** although this doesn't seem nearly as bad a problem. I hope Elite will take care of this and...

    A few pics from Viperdays...

    Remember, he's only in a vette, 140 is probably about right if Vipers are hitting 155-160.

    Viper body Kit pictures

    Vipermed, You're kit looks AWESOME! I too thought, "oh no, not a body kit, it will look like the infamous ********* kit". Fortunately, you're kit looks very nice. As a designer/artist, I always felt the Hennescrewed kit looked slapped on, not integrated to further enhance an already...

    Burned up SRT/10!

    Watch out for this car coming up on Ebay in the next 12 months as a "like new, slight previous damage car"!!! :) It will also have a clear title in carfax no doubt. Seriously though, hope occupants are ok.

    Viper vs Z06

    I guess I would discount them too if they didn't say what I wanted them to say. :( So... you even discount Justin Bell's comparison? If he was getting any kickbacks as you suggest it would be from GM, not DC... Even so, the Snake won and won handily. I'm a corvette fan since early...
