It could be worse I guess. The older ones still look better IMO. I see the stupid crosshairs grill is there along with those '06 Chargeresque headlights, and the rear end looks too much like a Vette. Other than that I suppose I wouldn't kick it out of the garage, but I wouldn't mortgage the house to buy one either.

I defiantly like the old ones better. My best friend has a 99, and I like the looks of his a lot better than this body style.

I agree, the previous body style looked meaner/cooler.

Looks a little vette-ish to me.  I like the old body style better.

I agree the old body style looks better than the new one, but the thought of e-baying all of these rust bucket projects I own and plunking the resulting cash down as a down payment on 600 HP with a warranty is appealing.

What will the '08 Viper sell for... $90K?

well...     i like the 600HP....      and i actually like this body style better...    then again im more into the sharper lines

The 600HP sounds good,dont like the wheels but the engine looks sweet! 
I have always thought that GM copied the Viper in alot of the newer vettes styling.

The Vette started looking like a Viper before the Viper started looking like a Vette.

The Vette started looking like a Viper before the Viper started looking like a Vette.

I think they were both going for that "Euro-trash" look....ashamed to be American Super Cars? 

btw, those are some butt-ass-ugly wheels on that car.

Older ones look better IMO. Rather keep my cobra and it's cheaper than one of those mortgage payment Vettes.
