Default Gen 2 Vipers

Anyone else like this body style better then the Gen 3 style?

Pics of Mike's Viper he just got detailed.










Tim has an 06 coupe that looks awesome (same color combo) but there is something about the Gen 2's.


Cheers
G

I love the style of them, hate the stock wheels though.
A favorite of mine was a dfw guy that was red (hate the color usually, i like blk and blue gen2s) with a set of kenesis wheels.

I totally agree with G-Z06 2nd Gen vipers are the baddest looking vipers, when they came out with the new body style I really hated the side exhaust and the new headlights, somthin about the 2nd gens just looks more exotic...

Yeah he owned the GT, he drove it to the course.

I like the new GTS Vipers much better, but those are still badass too.

Not to be picky, but is there normally that much gap between the hood and front fascia (next to the headlights)?
