I would like to say, "I told you so". Late last year and throughout this year I have posted here that Autoweek and Motor Trend have been reporting that the Viper would continue with some engineering help from Ferrari-I mistakenly called it the Lambo Viper a couple times but Italian is Italian right? Anyway, this is another reminder that the FIAT merger ain't all bad. The Viper would have been sold or cancelled outright if Merchionne and the boys hadn't come along. Now we're going to get a beast with a giant American engine and a chassis engineered from the king of F1 racing. So to all the hand-wringers I hope you enjoy the new logo, it's here because of FIAT, not in spite of it.

 

did i ever say that the viper was being killed off?

 

No. But many here did.

 

It will die for a model year and resurrect from the grave as the 2nd coming of the corvette killer.

 

I'm not a fan. I like the older one. But change is good I guess. Not like I own one. If I did, I'd swap the logo.

 

pretty dull/bland looking and corny..I mean Californy if thats even a word?...lol. Looks like chopped off snake head heading diving into a wave.
