mo-i: +1 on everything.
It looks like they had a great concept idea a couple of years ago, but then rushed to get the details done. A lot of awkward forms and transitions. I do see more Lambo Aventador in the Vette’s surfacing though. A nice contrast to the slightly softer flowing Viper bodywork.
Plus, why a 7-speed manual? I want a four-on-the-floor. That used to be the reason one would buy a 6.2L V8. The torque negates the need for stirring the box too often.
