I know but I would take a true manual setup over a DCT even though they are usually quicker.

I think it looks great. The last generation Viper looked better, but this new one still has a cool look to it.

In terms of the exterior I think I agree. Something about it just seemed more bold and brash. But the interior on this latest model is tops

Personally I would prefer auto/CVT/SMG/DCT or others
But for this SRT VIPER
I think a stick shift (for this vehicle) would be interesting. I wouldn't mind either way.
I just hope that the clutch pedal would not be as hard as brick wall to press (or depress).

This looks really nice. It takes styling cues from the original Viper. I was afraid they would continue to water down the styling like they did with the previous model. The last one had curves that were a little less curvier. But this looks very in-your-face like the original while looking very modern and sexy. Great job! The V10 sounds much better but I'll have to hear it in person, but the previous V10 sounded horrible like the truck engine it was.

It's very weird to me how Dodge has been split into Dodge, Ram and SRT brands. Odd setup.
Big props to Dodge/Ram/SRT for the achievement they've made with this car
Personally, I find it pretty ugly to look at but there's no denying the performance.
