I really hope that they don't change the car too much when it comes back, but borrowing from Ferrari concerns me. Vipers are supposed to be absent of any and all sophistication. They go fast through raw brute force and big cubes. They're the Neanderthals of the supercar world, and thats why I respect them so much.

If they plan on sharing things like braking and suspension, I'll be fine with it. But if they get into 'small' (relative to the 8.4L V10 that is) 9000+ rpm motors with a dual clutch transmission and a carbon fibre monocoque body ... well it just won't be a Viper.
