Ralph Gillies, Chrysler’s top designer, told Bloomberg this week the next Viper will be inspired by “a naked woman on the beach” and will be “drop-dead beautiful.”
This car definitely is beautiful, kinda like a modern day batmobile! I want it in purple! Check out the purple Viper after the jump!
 
Fine — just as long as she’s still engaging in that burn-your-legs-getting-out-of-bed fetish.
In addition, Chrysler says the new Dodge Viper will be “drop-dead beautiful” and is meant to draw buyers away from Porsche and the Corvette. Wait, did they say Porsche? Really? And they’ll call it a Viper?
While production of the sports car ceased in July, the last we’d heard, the automaker’s five-year turnaround plan included the possibility of bringing it back in 2012.
Now we’re getting a more definitive timeline. The car will be released next year as a 2013 model-year vehicle, Gilles told reporters at the Automotive News World Congress on Thursday in Detroit.
