if thats the car pictured....HUGE FAIL

The 9-speed automatic will follow an 8-speed gearbox for rear-wheel-drive cars due in 2011,
is there going to be a front wheel drive version ?

"Automatic"?

"Entry-level V8"??

It looks like some punk-ass Toyota Celica.

Wow...the Viper really is dead...:bur2:

"There are times when you are given the opportunity to give life to something which is so beautiful and unique, so just and equitable, that you pay a lot less attention to the numbers, to the financial reality that surrounds it." - Marchionne

Let's hope the design of the GenV Viper is as good as his talk. The man knows how to sell though.

Retro the GenII. Porsche kept the same style for 40 years and the changes they finally made were minimal. Why American companies are so compelled to invest in complete changes every 11 years, particularly for the GenI&II Viper which was such a huge hit, is beyond me.
