Re: Red/Silver Coupe with new wheels.Very Nice.

Getbit.........I personally think this car looks great and I'll probably get the yellow/black combo next year. Personally, I like the Copperhead wheels much better. I just recently installed a set on my new yellow SRT-10 and they really woke the car up. Hope to see you this weekend at RSI.

Re: Red/Silver Coupe with new wheels.Very Nice.

now this is how it should have been...

extended rear, lowered, gas lid where it should be, changed the door shape a bit at the bottom and a few little things here and there.

before...

I like how Toby ended the falling line from the rear bumper. I typically prefer shorter overhangs but Toby comes through again with another improvement.

Craig, despite my rant on the other thread, this is critisism I can live with. Not general dogpiling but intelligent, thought given to design issues. Much more interesting read. Thanks.

Just lowering the car makes a world of difference...

I agree. I know I am overly harsh on the car but that's more to drum up discussion/emotion more than anything. I do admit that the coupe is a step in the right direction. I really like the car with a lowered stance and with the other wheels I think it's starting to really come around. No doubt the car is going to do everything better stock for stock compared to a GEN 2 car.

It should be really interesting to see just what the coupe does to SRT vert values.

That's easy to predict as they have nowhere to go but down. The question is this; Do you think that they will fall lower than the gen II coupes?

I think eventually gen 2 GTS's will rule the used viper market and that includes the SRT-coupe
once the car has been on the market for a considerable time ( 10+ years) especially if there is a 4th generation of the viper down the road...

I know I could get mid 50's for my 99 in todays market and I might be wrong but clean, low miles 01,02 GTS's/ACRs still get mid 60's. I fairly sure I have seen 03 SRT/10's in the low 60's.

Note that the last wheel is the Copperhead wheel and not the one on the Coupe. I know, I shot that picture at Viper Days. :thumb:
