Interesting addition to the 2003 viper. A nice little red starter button....

Take a look at the May Road & Track.

I can't wait for this comment "that thing's got a starter button like the viper huh"

The red starter button and a few of the external design features have been a subject of discussion on the viper board.

Do you think anyone is going to make any, not enough torque for daily driving comments? Maybe the opposite ha LOL.

On the whole I don't like the new car, seems like it's lost something. The most interesting thing was they went to a traditional hood. Apparently the second most expensive component on the current Viper next to the engine was the hood! because of it being composite it cost them $10,000!

Regarding the $10,000 hood, I read the same thing (I think in Road & Track). . . The price seems excessive, but given the benefits it may be worth it. . .
