Incredible work. I'll set a Chop Shop up here momentarily.

Actually the old miscle cars were as good as, or better than the viper aerodynamically. The Daytona and Superbird had a Cd of 0.29 which was slicker than a great many cars today.

 

Compared to the Viper yes, but I'm not happy with the aerodynamics of it either and some Viper owners I know agree. It could be alot better.

Awesome work!! Although when I see that and think of what could have been..... sorry I just needed a moment.

As far as the retro styling, IT RULES!! Considering that 60's and early 70's muscle cars are setting records at auctions as of late, I don't think an auto manufacturer can go wrong designing and building one(based on that era). yeah, yeah, the PT , prowler, thunderbird yada yada was 40s/50s styling.

As far as the aerodynamics comment, which was rich coming from a Viper owner. Cannot/should not be applied to every car. Styling would pretty much have to take a back seat or at least be compromised for the sake of drag coefficient, and for what? So you can lay claim to a ridiculous top end?? Hardly useful for street duty. When Hennessy and other tuners put all the ground effect crap/spoilers etc on a Viper to clean up the aerodynamics so it could break 200mph, I thought great it's fast but looks like bird dung now. I'll sacrifice top end for some looks any day. JMHO.

Incredible. I'd trade in my magnum in a second if they offered something even close to that.

 

Burningman, just to be clear, my comment was with regards to the crosshair grill suggestion.

Your work is awesome. Great stuff. Great. That AAR one Rocks.

 

Thank you again guys..I do these for the fun of it (unless someone wants to pay me ) hehehe
and it's hearing you guys enjoying them and snaggin them for your wallpapers and such that makes it worth while. I really appreciate all the kind words and I listen carefully to the constucktive crits as well.

As for the crosshair grill well that is the one thing about Dodges that i can't stand personally. I'm just not a fan of that design cue. it was the only part of the Charger concept that i didn't like hehe but that's just me.

Anyway you guys make this worth while thank you
