Viper’s use to be awesome, right? (12 HQ Photos)

Author: Rick | September 16, 2010 | In: Chrysler, Dodge, High-Res, Lemons

This reminds me of when the Firebird was replaced by Australia's GTO (Monaro, totally respect Aussies). What the f#@* happened to the car that was the representation of rock-star-gone-wild? No handling, just crazy. So here's the partnership with Fiat (still love Rossi) and the Ferrari engineers. Tell me I'm over re-acting. I'm all for American cars getting lighter and having elements of future design. Aerodynamics, great. But sometimes you need to have a sledge hammer. Nice interior.

Don't like it would rather have one of the old ones.
HUNK

To fancy. The exact opposite of what the Viper represents. If you want fancy and power you buy a Mercedes. Just scrap all the chrome like shiny surfaces.

WTF??…..nahh I like the old one better. i don't feel like a bad ass in this one.
El Conquistador

wow…Austin Martin remodeled the Viper?

vince

You mean Austin Powers or Astin Martin? Make up my mind….

Welde

Maybe he's talking about Aston Marten ? Anybody's guess this one !

Welde

I did some googling and came to the conclusion that he ought to be talking about Aston Martin !

Timmah

Don't get it either. That is clearly the Aston Martin emblem, so where is the viper….

Ruffestneckaround

It's a Chrysler emblem…

kenneth

agree it is a Chrysler so dodge just turned it over to their sister company

terrible redesign. haven't they ever heard "if it isn't broken, don't fix it."
Northman

It is "used to" not "use to" .. Get it right. Or better yet, pay me to do it for you.

vegasruel

You are wrong douche nozzle.
Rick

I stand corrected, thank you…enjoy the boobs

FuckOff

Ewww Chrysler badges all over the f'ing thing, gross. Is this supposed to reinvigorate Chrysler as a brand?! Somehow I don't think a brand that sells shitbox PT cruisers has the consumer market for this vehicle. The Crossfire certainly didn't sell well, nor did it help them avoid bankruptcy. All this is gonna do is make the viper enthusiasts run to another brand.
yobo

You have pics of the 2005 Chrysler Firepower concept car, more closely related to the Chrysler Crossfire.
#6 & #12 are the new 2012 viper….
very confusing post here….
Locode

*Vipers used to be awesome*
Scott

That is a Chrysler Firepower, not a Viper. It is a concept vehicle based on the Viper chassis, not the next Viper, unless they really changed plans. http://modificationsportcar.blogspot.com/2010_08_…

Nateb123

I was gonna say. Way to go the Throttle for taking the info right from AutoBlog while not noticing the concept that's been around for 3 years.
Eric

yea it looks more like a "Crossfire" on crack. but, I feel if they do anything to the viper it would be to retire it. not make it look pretty.

Vipers aside….WTF did you do to Hayden in #8

Nateb123

If Hayden looked like that, the world would implode from her hotness. Looks like the FHM picture of Anne Lindfjeld. Google it for your own sake

MiPo1977

I did…I found the untouched photo photo of Hayden…..Anne L is also smokin

IMAYADATTY

Ity looks like a stretched Crossfire..lame

Doesn't the chick with ink look like Hayden Panettiere?

crankenstein

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's just a weird photoshop making a "rocker babe" out of her. Lame.

IMAYADATTY

I think it looks better than she does regularly…she needs to give it a shot….but then again I have a thing for dirty girls!!!

Warpedone

As other's have said that's the Firepower! concept, not the new Viper. Which will have an 8.4L V10 and a Prius disintegrator mounted in the nose.
Griswold

Thats no Viper. They aren't putting out a new Viper for 2011…..they are trying to build hype for the new Viper in 2012-2013.

Adriana Lima FTW.
Dreamy

This post confused me much.

Chris

DISLIKE!!!
Rob

they broke the viper :'(
And thanks for recognising OUR car! top gear didn't… they called it a vauxhall!! >:(
mikewiseshowinterns

thats a crossfire……what is wrong with you. has no one seen chrysler insignia….body lines….interior…..ENTIRE FRONT FASCIA
Ogglr

Stupid to showcase an old concept car as the new Viper.
greg_wire

while i wouldn't mind having this in my possession, i would still rather have the old one i've wanted since i was a kid!
Ross

Nope, new Viper = Fail. That car just looks like a dozen other cars out there, there was no mistaking the old Viper.
Frankie

Please find out who # 8 is and make a post all of her
Alp

they want to call that a viper? it doesnt even have the dodge logo on it! someone was smoking something funny when they came up with that one.

2 door k car

Sadly, you’ve given him a reason to gloat. That’s the worst sin of all here in the blooesphgre. We prefer a humiliated, FAIL-laden Viper.But way to go above and beyond with some solid miles to make a game of it!
