I think they made the snake on the front look more angry and called it a makeover.

its not so much a styling change. i think that photo is just showing a current viper, there is talk of mclaren working with the viper for more power though - http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/spyshots/200283/mclaren_viper.html
the hood is the only difference.  i guess dodge is trying to keep up with the new z06..

I would pick the Z06 over the Viper anyday. Updated techonology, style, and I believe price advantage too.

And crappy seats and chintzy interior. Really now, the corvette used to be a bargain, but 70k for a fiberglass V8 that rides like a brick?
Sure I wanna do 0-60 in 3.2seconds, but not for 70k.  I can do it on a bike for 20k or less in 3.1  Just saying, come back to earth Chevy!
 Ever seen what a Hummer H2 can do to a fiberglass shell?
