The Dodge Challenger has arrived

http://www.fquick.com/blog/The_Dodge...s_arrived/1259

Looks good, but that interior.....i guess they just pulled it out of the charger/300 but whatever the car looks good.

The car weights in at 4,140lbs and only comes with open-diff.....pass

god what the **** did they do to it? I loved the concept, I dont like any of the changes they made. The wheels look retarded, they split the tail, and did minor cosmetic changes. The interior does look gay. Hm, dissapointing, I expected them to change a little, but the concept looked sooo much better.

Some of those pics are retarded photoshops.. but this one actually looks cool

Was on the press release, somewhere......but for the first year its a open-diff only. So the pic could be a 09 model? haha

In regards to the weight, because of crash standards and all the safety equipment the govt has forced, car makers have no choice. Don't think the Camaro won't weigh right around that. If a POS Solstice somehow weighs 3000 lbs....

I like that interior way more then the retro interior that the Camaro is going with. I prefer it clean and simple.

Still it's a car I can't wait to see in person.

Yeah, it reminds me of the Magnum interior.

its funny because you never heard much about the challenger either.. it was a big idea... didnt hear **** about it, then all of a sudden its out. maybe chevy should have not concentrated on promoting a car thats going to take 14 years to come out haha.
