They could have picked a worse looking car to base it on 8-)

Pretty car,well balanced,there's one round this way. It'll make a good Viper just so long as it doesn't suffer the corporate Fiat group build issues and parts bin raiding.

Sorry but- yuck! Doesn't work at all.
Wheel look like they're photoshopped- way too big. Front end looks grafted on from another car. Horrid.

What is the Viper supposed to look like? Ok its a good looking car alright (at least for one developed in the US but, there is sooo much room for improvement. European styling and technology would turn it from a brutish slugger into a sleek, fast capable missile I think.

That actually looks very like one of the clay models Plymouth made for the next version of the Barracuda back in the 70s before the E-body was canceled.

That Alfa (8C I think) is just stunning.
Possibly the best looking car I have ever seen. Trouble with basing a viper on it would be 'how on earth can you improve that?' - the americanization of a thing of beauty like that may be just too painful.
These things are subjective of course (I mean astons and porsches do NOTHING for me) but that Alfa. Man thats something else... =P~
