No, not even.
yes, absolutely.
Nope. I will fight you to death on this.
Let's not fight over such subjective things as looks. That's how wars get started

IMO, the new viper is way way better than that of the mid 2000's viper. Man, that 1998 viper was hot. Those curves were amazing, and I am happy they are back. I didn't like what they did with the 2003-2012, they started looking too corvette-ish, and looked too bland imo.
Hot...

I think the rounded-everything is a style from the 90s and early 2000s that could have stayed in the 90s and early 2000s.

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
Good Lord that is bad. That ride height and the wheel arches look comically stupid.
This is the exact same car Lambo brought to NYC and revealed it behind closed doors to their most loyal buyers.
Which was in direct response to the everything square phenomenon in the 1980s.
How many cars from the 80s do you remember not being shoeboxes?

Hahahahah. Idk why, but that cracked me up.
Love that the BRZ/FRS hate is still alive here. Despite how well this thing is going to sell, doesn't mean shit. It's still slow, not that great looking, and has a spartan interior.
Oh, and expensive.
Yes, didn't the War of 1812 start because the British insulted James Madison by saying that his new Mustang was ugly and bulky?
Yeah, pretty much everything was boxy. The 1986 Taurus was considered a revolution in design, and it's not particularly rounded.

Sure but were cars looking like shoeboxes in 2009? Maybe you missed it, but we're talking about why a car in 2012 looks like a car from 1999 in shape. I think the new Viper could have been better adapted to 2012 stylings. Less 1999 rounded body, more definition and shape. Particularly to the doors leading to the trunk.
If you like it, get a matching hat and wear it out in style. My opinion is as presented and needs no further justification.
I made no arguments for or against the Viper's design. I was just noting the design trend of the time.
Yes, which was an odd thing to do after the American Revolution was won in Dodge Challengers.
ima gonna keel you wit mah bike biatch
yes, that's me and yes, it was a Rickman if anybody cares.
so the cool is on me and the yolk's on you.
your knees are sharp.
Its a fail.
Bitches love sharp knees.
So I called the guy about the 2.5rs I posted about yesterday. here's the summary
Honestly doesn't make me confident about the car's past. I can do the timing belt/water pump, but the fact that the timing belt is past due is worrisome. I am going to look at it on monday, so I will let you guys know how that goes.
- he's had the car for about 7 years since about the 100k kilometer mark after buying from the local subaru dealer.
- Headgasket has not been replaced. I will thoroughly check this to see if it's an issue with this car.
- The 168k kilometer (105k mile) maintenance has not been performed.
- Recently had the clutch replaced after a trip.
- One wheel bearing is bad.
- Does not have complete service records.

Yea those engines are interference motors so be careful, dont be afraid to walk on the car if you cant come to a good price. if your on the east cost there are a great amount of RS's out there.
that one the DOHC or SOHC?

It looks like exactly what your typical Lamborghini buyer is looking for. Especially the interior.
would you rather drive that or a panamera?

Absolutely the Panamera; I don't have near enough gold chains to drive the Lambo.
I'd rather have the Estoque.
Panamera is awesome to drive, if not a looker.
I would prefer the Aston Rapide over any of them, though.
It's not the first time. And the one you linked to is waaaaaay better than previous efforts.
Lambo started as a tractor company, after all.

Lambo tractors were the shit.
Don't hate.
Don't hate.
Thank you. To think that new, thing, is better is crazy to me.
Slow can be fixed. Spartan interiors are best interiors, looks are subjective, but I like the lines.
Wait, you want to keep the engine? I'd only be worried about what condition the body is in.
Eh, I already have a turbo awd car. I'm looking for a decent daily driver.

Frankie, as much as i like you i would have to disagree it might look better than previous efforts but it's still an ugly/awkward looking thing.

that's some dark tint.
I did 35% on mine and am satisfied with it.

It's light compared to the car I had before this one.
5% on my previous Accord. Couldn't see a damn thing even with your face smack against the window.

Don't know why anybody would get 5% sure it looks nice but good luck driving at night.

Lol, sometimes I'd have a few quickies in there, yes. I just like dark tint. I think it can make any car much more sexy.
But, honestly, the first week was a little frightening, but after a while my eyes adjusted and it wasn't so bad at all. I could see fairly decently.
