    New SRT Viper Slowly Slithers Out of the Shadows

    Monday, 20th February, 2012

    Just last month Chrysler's SRT division served up their first teaser image of the upcoming all-new Viper, cloaked ominously in the shadows. Well, SRT now reckon the time is right to charm the big snake into the light and give us the first glimpse of its new, shiny skin.

    Okay, not exactly. While the Viper has finally slithered into the light, we're still just as much in the dark as we were before. What we can tell for sure from the newest teaser SRT just released over on their Facebook page is that we're looking at a scoop that's been crafted from carbon fiber. Since it is a carbon fiber scoop on a V-10-powered serpent, we can assume it probably directs cool air somewhere, maybe to the engine, maybe to the brakes. Oh, it’s also been painted red.

    We should know what sort of function the scoop serves in April at the New York Auto Show, where SRT is planning to officially pull the wraps off of the new Viper. Until then, we’re free to debate on what exactly we’re looking at and continue to wait out the next few weeks in slow agony.

    I so hate Facebook, what a worthless site. They continue to prove why I will never open an account. No image to see and they try to pushout pop up crap and say you need to join to see an image.

    So far this Snake is not winning any points with me. It still seems ugly and I for one am not impressed with this way of trying to get interest in their Halo Car.

    ok first of all that teaser has been out for about a month. and all it tells us is SRT can Photoshop. i wont even touch the last comment and how Facebook is useful in many many ways. but i am still excited about this car. ive seen other teasers of the car under the usual cloak. it looks really impressive. smaller then the last one too.

      Mercedez Benz News 2027 Mercedes-Benz VLE MPV: Electric Luxury Minivan With 434-Mile Range

      By smk4565 · Posted

      The VLE probably has better interior space for passengers than a GLS or Escalade, and can offer roomier seating like a big first class airline seats.  Better kid hauler too.  But this won't sell in the US.  Probably works in China.  I don't know what the price is going to be, but I feel like people won't pay it, they'll buy an SUV even if it doesn't suit their needs as well.

      Most of that is old stuff. M5 processor is out now and six of those devices are M3s, one is an M2 iPad.  The iPhone 15 Pro an Pro Max were not some of Apple's best work and we're on 17 now.  I just can't with 4-cylinder turbos on premium aiming products. No one has really fixed the NVH of these engines and they all sound terrible. I'd really rather a small displacement 6 cylinder, say 2.5 liters with a turbo for premium stuff. Buick to Benz, they all sound bad.

      I know. When I was talking about USC, I then went over to Mossimo and Lori Loughlin.  They participated in the bribed admissions snafu at USC for their daughters and did time.  I rechecked and those two are separated instead of divorced. As for Bezos and his arm candy, only time will tell what that will look like.

      Hmm....I was talking about Lauren Sanchez... they just got married last year.  Had been Bezo's girlfriend since 2018.  He divorced his first wife in 2019.

      USC grad and I believe a SoCal upbringing.  USC was once not that hard to get into.  I'm not commenting on her intellectual abilities (she's not a rocket scientist, that's for sure), just the statistics.  Admission percentages for freshmen at the best public universities in America have dropped like a lead balloon.  I don't know if I'd want to go to a school where Mossimo* and Lori Loughlin* had to swindle the system to get their daughters in.  It's also in a somewhat dangerous neighborhood. What it does is beg the question as to who and what she is thinking about when she's got her thighs wrapped around his waist.  I'm just calling a spade a spade.   * I just did a wiki on them. They got divorced last year.
