That Viper is a HOT car!
I saw a new Viper on the freeway a couple of weeks ago...could not identify it from behind....the rounded out features and those huge rear meats that they run on the back. I like the looks and performance, but I still would prefer the Vette....it will always be the classic American sportscar....
