Wow! That car looks simply wicked! The pics and the write-up gave me a chub bro! It's going to be very interesting what the next GM finished product will look/perform like. I have to tell you, I'm not a dodge man, but that car is simply smokin hot looking.

Thank you for sharing...

Very glas they decided to bring this back. I'm looking forward to the coming years to see Dodge and Chevy compete back and forth. We are going to get some serious machines out of this

I guess im the only guy on the block that doesnt like it.
I honestly think your blue viper looks 10x better.
The wing and the graphics make me a little sick.

The difference is that ricers try to look like these road racing cars, but cars like this are the real deal. Ever watched any road racing events? Those cars surely aren't "ricer". Rice means to look fast, these cars are fast.

Not rice:

I'm with you. That wing looks brutal. Hopefully they tone it down a little.

Same thing can be said about any enthusiast car. Do we really need them, or do we simply want them? The price of a car is either cheap or expensive relative to your income, which makes it even more difficult to justify or not.
