Just for you, sweetie 
Honestly though, I love the GTS... I just don't like how muscular the current generation of Vipers are, and Dodge vehicles in general. Add in personal experience with Viper owners, a dash of dislike of domestic car brands, and it's a recipe for disaster for me.
I have respect for the original GTS, Ford GT, and Corvettes. Side by side to a foreign sports car it's not a complete package when the interior is always neglected.
To ice the cake, the ACR has an outlandish body kit and obnoxious paint scheme. It's almost symbolism for the world to see- in-your-face, tattooed, pierced, "I deserve it all" attitude that people stereotype Americans as having. There's nothing elegant about it. Automotive embarrassment.
At least the Vette has heritage to live up to and several of the best motors made many decades in a row.
