A "vipervette" - the worst of both worlds: a corvette without the style and a viper without the engine.

It's not bad looking but... why not just buy a Viper if that's what you want??? Somehow I doubt you would save any money going this route, unless maybe you are a professional bodyman and do all the work yourself.

New paint with exotic wheels, and it would not be that bad.

Why? Would love to have a Viper, but I'm not ashamed of my Vette.

Can't afford to buy a BMW Z3?

Buy a Miata and get this body kit.
