    Next Viper Going To Be Less Rough

    The Dodge Viper is undergoing it’s final stretch of development time before being launched sometime in 2012. During the past year, Dodge has been releasing little bits of information about the next Viper.

    Now, a little more information has come out about the next Viper. Automotive News spoke with Dodge boss Reid Bigland at the Los Angeles auto show this week. Bigland said the redesigned Viper "will appeal to a broader segment of the market."

    "It was a little crude in the past, and to a certain extent that was its appeal because you really needed to have your wits about you when you got behind the wheel to keep that thing on the road. And that thrill of driving a Viper was kind of unlike any other. I think it still will be a thrilling ride with respect to the new one but offer a few more creature comforts that people come to expect in a high-performance vehicle today," Bigland said.

    If this worries any Viper fans, Bigland says don’t worry,

    "Those who were attracted to the Viper in the past will certainly be attracted to this new Viper. Guaranteed!"

    • Hmm... so it won't let delete happen?
    • Happy new year to all my long time C&G friends! Overall, 2025 wasn't bad, but I didn't get as much as I wanted accomplished. For this upcoming year, I'd like to decide which side of the pond I want to live on.  I don't want to call it a resolution as much as it is an objective. Since it's cars that brought me here a long time ago, it's no surprise that I'm bummed by the absence of coupes and sedans, not to mention many viable choices for things I would want to use my GM Card earnings on, should it come to that.   I see that the VW Jetta is still around.  I once had one in Houston, and I wrote about it.  I liked it quite a bit.  I've also had a few Nissan Versas recently and read that the curtain might be falling on that. The profit margin might be too slim.  A few reviews said that this is one of the better small cars for the money.  (CVT and all.)  Lastly, the Toyota Camry LE should be around for a while and I once had one as a rental and like the latest rendition, complete with its hybrid engine.  With GM having brought a good few of us to C&G, it would have been hard to imagine a day looking toward the future where there would be no GM sedans, let alone coupes, to choose from. End of (my usual) rant.  Happy Friday.
