Wow....I can honestly say that's kinda sad. down 70%; That's really sad. Unbelieveable. I never liked the car, but I think we need a moment of silence for the Viper. (Seriously) ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ Thank you. EDIT: Oh, and we'll have to see what this author thinks of Chevy and their Muscle Cars come 2009... |

That was a really dumb analysis of muscle cars (they don't have to be strippers to be muscle).
Sad to see the Viper go. It was amazing, something special. It wasn't the best performance car, but there was just something so significant about it. It is probably best that Chrysler let it go, and I worry that they might still be in trouble for a long time, or not even make it through the next few years at all. Sad times. Darn you Daimler! :fighting0040: |

Chrysler is screwed. They have a lot of work to do if they want to save what remains of their companies.

You know what would be cool (If Chrysler can survive and become viable again), is if they pull a Camaro and bring it back in a few years and make it better than ever. Come on, Corvette needs some good ol' American muscle car competition. Heck, GM might have started a new marketing strategy, kill a brand and bring it back better than ever with tons of publicity.

Well that sux. But, take a look at the price. IMO, it's cost is up there. Sure wish it'd stick around for a while.

Sad to see it go. If it has to go for Chrysler to stay alive, then it's probably for the best. I've always liked the Viper, but I think I'd rather have a solid, viable American car company around rather than just one car that I won't ever own anyway. As much as I'm not a fan of Chrysler, they are American and every one of their cars sold is one fewer Toyota, Honda, or Hyundai on the roads. Hopefully Chrysler can get the ship righted and as someone mentioned, bring back the Viper in a few years. |
