Viper Marketing

That is utterly the ugliest, most disgusting, foul colors I've ever seen on any car. Ralph Gilles had too much moonshine

Been looking at pics of the the 5th gen recently. Performance disappointment/marketing disaster aside, it's a good looking car. And for sub $100K, not a bad price point. I've been pretty set on eventually getting a 7.2 GT3 as my next car, but even with a ton of miles, those are still selling for $120-130K+. Not looking to win any races, just a fun DD. Other option around that price would be one of the new Z06's. Good looking car, but still more $$ well optioned and not without being plagued by performance issues of it's own as of late. What am I missing about the new Viper?

You like the sound of flatulence. Check! You don't care that all gens look pretty much the same. Check!

Are you referring to the V10? Admittedly an acquired taste, but I don't dislike it

admittedly an acquired taste...

lmao!

Have you sat in one? You might be looking at the windshield header.

I have. Only for a few minutes on a dealer floor. Snug no doubt. Didn't pay much attention to outward visibility since I wasn't driving, but I've heard it has issues in that department.

I mean, come on. That looks good.

If that looks good to you, then, yeah...it looks good to you. On an exterior design success/fail matrix, this goes on the fail side for me.

Hey, isn't purgatory a better place to be than limbo? If I remember correctly, limbo is forever.

I think the Viper is a very good deal at the current street price. The car looks good and it seems to be finished very nicely. The paint is beautiful.

I'm 6' and I feel like I need to be hunched over to see properly.

I don't think either is for eternity. But I was referring to the dance with the stick. Love me a game of limbo! lol

Hmm. Guess I should sit in one again.
