BRZ/FRS vs Viper

I find this two very similar. Almost like the designers base on this silhoutte. What do you think? ... At least I'm not comparing it to a Bugatti. Lol.

I think that OP was comparing the FRS/BRZ to the actual snake. Not the Dodge Viper car. I would have to agree with him. the car does look like a snake head from the front.

Lol.


The badge certainly has a weight advantage over the FRS, but it's lack of any form of propulsion really make the FRS seem like a better buy...

Sense he was talking about the snake not the car I have heard people say that about mine that it looks like a rattle snake head but I don't really see it. If he was talking about the Dodge viper then obviously the Dodge viper is a way better car but it comes with a price tag to match.

Now that you mention it, the BRZ front facade does look like the Viper logo.
