Nice! Keep it rubber side down

 

[Charlie-III]

Looks good, good luck with it.8)

I will say that some of the "new retros" are very well done, the current Challenger is one example.

 

[RusT808]

Nice! I seen one on the road, a real head turner.

 

[RANOVRU]

SRT8 with 6sp wouldve been better :twisted: but Im sure its still fun to drive.

Challenger has been by far the nicest looking of the retros imo.

 

[Duuuuuuuude]

Very nice. How come the rear tires are so skinny?

 

[BJoe]

Looks good and should be fun to drive too!

 

[RANOVRU]

Cause its only pushing 374 to the crank and wieghs the better part of 4000lbs. With wide tires it wouldnt be able to spin them.



DISCLOSURE: That was a joke. I like the car. Just a little ribbing.

X2 on the ribbing, nice ride


I didnt like the challengers much when they came out, but I have seen 2 in resent weeks with a kick ass hood scoop, and now they are begining to grow on me.

 

[T1DAVE]

Sweet lookin ride

 

[Grumpster1980]

Thanks guys! I know the guys ribbing me are driving some 4 banger commuter car with a loud rice burning muffler attached :lmao:

Here are some more pictures driving down the coast

 

[HARDKNOCKZ]

Ditch the chrome for black. While yer at it...ditch the Dodge for a Bowtie. :mrgreen:

Actually a cool car. I saw one similar at SEMA last year & they do look "muscluar."

 

[Mr.Slave]

Nice car,
ditch the chrome.

but i will never understand why people buy these kinds of vehicles with an automatic transmission

I guy I work with at the Post Office picked up a Challenger SRT8 not too long ago.

His has the manual and the 392 Hemi in it, wide tires too. It's pretty slick."thumbsup"

I'll try n get some pics of it before he puts it away for the winter.

You are aware that truck came with about 20% less horsepower from the factory than that little 5.7L?

I never put alot of stock horse power or torque ratings, unless they are a true side by side with matching rpm #'s througout the rpm range.

But I'd bet the torque of the 8.0, no matter the #'s, is enough to drag a sports car down the road.:mrgreen:

 

[RockEd out]

Grumpster, Jealousy and hate sum up what I feel right now about this. It is almost exactly the one I built online, of course I couldn't afford right now if I wanted too, but still fun to dream.

Congratulations on that beauty man. I love me some Mopar and this is one of the nicest new style Challengers I;ve seen!

Here in America, manuals don't sell as well because too hard to drive and launch. It's a shame to me the slow death of manuals.

Mopar

Mopar or no car buddy! I am a huge older Mopar fan, not so excited how quickly these Challengers got heavy, but all is well looks good and still a fun toy. Enjoy it, just watch out for us 4-bangers in commuter cars, some of us are in sleeper mode "thumbsup"

Ouch, thats what I drive ;-)

Thanks to this little guy, I make more power and tq though:
