Is this a pic of the \'05 GenIII GTS?

I always hate to backpeddle, especially since I've been one fo the stronger critics of the GenIII RT design, but I have to say it looks Ok in mock-up GTS form. I think I would like it to be more agressive, but it's not TOO bad.

Of course, I made these pics in Photoshop. I took the roof off the GTS/R and put it on the GenIII RT/10 pics, and I tried to add stripes in the 2nd picture (they didn't come out so good

).

So, what does everyone think? I have to run for now, but maybe later I'll try to put some stripes on the existing GenIII RT/10 pictures.

Have to agree. It looks pretty good. The strips really say get out of the way. I understand the "orders" are already being placed for the 05. When it (and I believe the 03) comes out its going to be "hot" (word quoted from a well known car salesman).

Good job, it looks much better than the convertible they're passing off as the next Viper. I have never thought convertibles looked good. The current RT/10 is NOT a convertible it is a TRUE roadster. It has a sport bar very similar to the early 70s Vettes, which adds a lot to it's style. Looks like the GenIII GTS will finally surpass the RT/10 in the looks department.

Hey Mike - How come the stripes do not reflect in the water?

Joe,

What are you talking about? The stripes are right there!

Obviously your eyesight is failing! Please send me the keys to your ACR and stop driving it before you hurt someone. I will give it a good home next to my silver GTS.

Dang, Mike. You're hired. As soon as I get my new 2003, let's head over to Autoform and have em work up the new "hatchback hardtop". Your design looks VERY good. And, I especially like the new "prismatic ghost" stripes, which obviously are non-reflective in both mirrors and for police laser/radar!
