I haven't completely warmed up to the front end yet, but I know I will. God vipers are some bad ass cars. Drove a 2006 Viper SRT-10 and it was fun as hell, I can only imagine what this one would be like.

2013 SRT Viper...wow.

This thing bad ass. The interior alone makes me want one. SRT worked with Ferrari to design it. No cheap AC delco junk in this thing. I'm a Chevy guy but if I could choose between this and a ZR1, I would pick this.
What do you guys think?

I'd pick the ZR1 over it any day of the week.

I think Vipers aren't even in the same league as Camaros, they're like 3 times the price of a ZL1 too.... this is really off topic but I love Vipers yeah... and ice cream too.

This car is no doubt incredible!

Love everything about it...except the front end is going to have to grow on me.

But you also posted it in the forum specific to "General 5th generation Camaro topics not covered by other subforums."

This probably should have been posted in the General Automotive + Other Car Discussions forum down at the bottom.

Agreed. Not really impressed with the body. The inside looked pretty, but wouldn't sway me away from a vett.

Looks like every other Viper. Nice, but the shape is familiar. Likely ridiculously overpriced.

IMO the original Viper lived and died with the first generation that did not have opening doors, or a roof. This is another luxury sports coupe with a big motor.
