Besides the lower rear bumper, this car looks pretty mean and nice. Definitely has body lines very appealing and eye catching. ---

Yeah it was funny that you could not get near the Vette stand but you could walk up and climb on the Viper. I will skim the pictures and see if any are worth sharing. Most people that I talked to say it is even better in person. I am not one of them. It is a great looking car, but some people are making it sound like a take your breath away piece of art. ![http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/ronoversiii/2013%20Autoshow/IMG_1528.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/4/1/41abbd809586acb34b9aa1b1b85bc790cb6f8de7.jpeg) ![http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/ronoversiii/2013%20Autoshow/IMG_1525.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/8/d/8d8d618ec1638bc9ded107a9e48ac9c06d7702da.jpeg) Here are some iPhone pictures as well ![http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/ronoversiii/2013%20Autoshow/CF596CC0-B369-468C-8D21-950EA6BFF250-15138-00000FCD498386D2.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/d/a/da974d24c9ccc69fc26fd59a6a555ff38b797a06.jpeg) ![http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/ronoversiii/2013%20Autoshow/E2B8266C-AE77-4AF3-9DE3-7DD9D740AE0A-15138-00000FCD52077916.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/c/c/cc99fde16cec9e4ec4ded0ba2124bd12c42269f1.jpeg) ![http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc404/ronoversiii/2013%20Autoshow/E162CEF0-DECA-4EFC-BB72-7F885F074634-15138-00000FCD59915616.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/8/5/85cb497c341a6ea1cae1f80ad826f8c58a01893f.jpeg) ---

Everyone that I’ve talked to has been really excited about the new look. It will do well. Looks better than the viper after seeing both together in this thread. ---

I think black is the only color that will make the back end look good. I’m sure aftermarket rear bumpers will be something coming soon… along with the 2015 changing that look as well. Dont really know to many people that like it. ---

Bump! Just received my new Motor Trend and spent an hour on the shitter reading about the Viper and Vette ZR1 now holds the record for fastest Lap around Leguna Seca, beat out ACR by .2 Seconds, new Viper lost apparently to lousy brakes, steel rotors compared to ZR1’s carbon ceramic, which apparently stops like you hit a brick wall ---

> [@ubengineering](#): > > I don’t know the exact specs of the new Viper, but less power? I thought it went up 40 hp?[COLOR=“Silver”] You can’t find it anymore but Hennessy dyno’d it and it put down some really weak numbers. It is also heavier then the 2010 Viper. Hennessy got even less then Edmunds, but Dodge made him remove all videos and charts. ---
