I don't know...there's something wrong with it.

It looks like its jacked up or something, and those wheels don't seem to match it. From some angles I like it, but from the back I think it looks overdone. The last generation GTS definitely looks much much better though.

Thanks for the pics btw.

Its the mixture of the curves with straight edge styling thats bother most...

Over all its nice but heres what I think would make it better looking:

i love it i'm so happy they're actually making Coupes again instead of just convertibles.
and i've also been wondering a lot recently about how a GTS would look with the SRT/10's hood, so this is really sweet.

hmm... instead of 'sorry guys' you could say ' the gts looks like shit, and also looks great'

which i guess sums up my thoughts relating to it.
great rear wheel arch, so it doesnt look like an SL 55 AMG with the top down...
some strange lines, and im suprised to see side exhaust on the GTS model. im actually suprized i havent spotted one yet...

The new one doesn't look as aggressive, still like the old one more.

Really can't ask for more, I'll take the Viper any day The ride isn't really as rough as they say.

NOpe - just as hot and claustrophobic as they say though...

Not a fan...the front end is essentially the same as the SRT-10...which held true for the previous generation vehicle as well (though it did have a more aggressive grill and chin spoiler)...the problems I have are that it's a mishmosh between the new vehicle and the old GTS...it's just not a good conglomeration. The new car is a more angular, wider-looking vehicle than the old car, it needs to look more like the GTS-R concept with the elongated rear and good transitions from front-to-passenger compartment, and from there to the rear end of the car. The rear end really looks truncated here, it has the good ol' Kamm tail that the GTS had, but it works to less impressive effect here. On top of that, by God, look at the wheel-arch gaps...freaking huge!!!

I'll wait till I see it in the metal before I completely ignore it though. Here's hoping!
