Some aspects of it I really like and some I really don't, (mainly the rear end and I hate that line that slopes down the side)...But hey 2,600 lbs and 300 hp could make me overlook a great deal of ugliness

yes and I completely disagree with you but thats ok. Im actually glad you like the demon, because if it makes production someone has to buy it. To me the thing looks nothing like the viper. It looks like something some disgruntled engineers cooked up to get out of a project, and management with NO sense of style said that looks great!

I dont see it that way. Camaro is a 4 seater that will be many peoples daily driver. Why would I care if someone had to give up two seats and trunk space to get close. In that regaurd you could give up the trunk all together for a fraction of the price, buy a bike and perform better than anything out there. That doesnt make it a daily driver, mean you can haul groceries, or that its what youre looking for.

Front end looks great. Rear looks like something from Star Trek the Next Generation. The Ferengi space ship..

Too much going on with the lines on the car! It just doesn't flow...its like they took all their competition and mixed it in with that car. Maybe it will do well with someone who wants a S2000, Z4, TT, 350Z, and Viper but can only afford one car.

I'm not drawing to it, it doesn't reflect the Dodge Demon at all... it looks more like a S2000 to me.

Hmm, first impression: You know that sketch on Conan where they morph the faces of two celebs to see what their kid would look like. The front end looks like the product of a Charger and S2000 getting together. The back end looks like a mitsubishi eclipse crossed with some concept from a few years back.

Anyone else think the car looks a lot better in the black studio shot than those road shots?
