So I've heard that DC is already thinking about some other new colors to add (I guess these would be for the '09's?). I have a color suggestion. How about adding Lamborghini's 'Grigio Telesto'? This is the color that Lamborghini has shown the new LP640 in and can also be found on the Gallardo Superleggera. Below are a few pics of the color for anyone who doesnt know the color Im referring to.

I think they are trying to get away from dull colors. That color looks almost military rather than something that belongs on a sports car.

I have a picture of this color in different lighting and it has almost a blue/purple hue to it. Definitely a cool color. IMO, this color looks very aggressive and would the Viper image quite well.

Not sure Austin. Looks like a miss tint. I'm sure anything you put on a Lambo will look great though.

I saw a beautiful steel gray on a jeep about a year ago that would be the ****zs on a Viper. IMO

Normally I agree with your taste Austin, but not on that color. Maybe in person it looks better,but in pics it looks like primer.
If i had to vote, Id say bring back few colors, such as white for sure and maybe even silver. Then add a couple familar colors with a twist. I obviously like Copperhead, but to be different, that lambo Orange color would be a nice new Orange version.

I guess if I ever own a Viper I'll just have to paint it this color to show you guys. lol... I do agree that silver needs to be brought back.

Every year should have red, black, and a silver/gray, and then other colors rotate.
