And it would've been so easy! Viper mechanicals with the 6.1 Hemi - it was perfect.

Gorgeous car, too - better than the Aston ans still fresh almost four years later.

I think the Aston looks more like the Ford concept coupe that was around just after the GT. I think it was the GR-1?

The car was great. The Hemi was...hemi-like. The name sucked. And that was Chrysler's only non-dated concept of the time.

Yeah, and the Ford concept came first, IIRC.
