I hate everything about the front clip, from the grille/bumper openings to the Audi-esque headlights. As far as the hood, it's like they couldn't make up their mind between the old hood and a these new heat-extractors, so they said "**** it, more is better, right!?"
Aside from that though, I dig it a lot. Even the interior looks good, being a Viper. Side profile looks great; looks like the front fender & door line were raised some.
Performance and weight numbers send a shiver down my spine. 130 traps maybe!? Can't wait to see these around

I haven't drooled over a Viper this bad in a decade. When they went to the new body style, I was sickened by how horrible it looked, Now it has redeemed itself. The headlights are my only iffy part, but other then that, to keep that 96-2001 Body style, thank you...
Also, they just unveiled teh GTS-R  and is coming to ALMS, so move over Corvettes, thanks for keeping the seat warm since 2000, the Viper will take over from here.

Almost spot on. Vette is 100 pounds heavier, though.

1) Front looks too Audi/Ferrari-ish.
2) Nav screen is huge
3) They tried to make one of the crudest cars in America elegant looking

I know, that's what I was thinking of. And I know that, but it can still be styled differently, it doesn't have to look like it's cousin.

Audi? Because of the LED accent lights? EVERY car has that now.
Reading this thread makes me want to break something.

I can definitely see the Ferrari similarities, but at first glance my though was that it looked like a mix of the old GTS Coupe and a C6.

I think this may be one of those "gotta see it in person" cars. Photographs often accentuate body lines more drastically than the naked eye does. Heck, I remember hating the CTS-V(2) front clip when the first pictures were leaked. That quickly changed when I saw them in person though.
