it looks just like a Mustang....Ants mustang to be exact (no offense)


+1..because that thing is a beast!

I like it. Auto sucks, but other than that, I think it looks pretty good. The seats look really nice. I didnt read all of it, but I noticed in one of the pics, the stripes on the hood look to be some sort of carbon kevlar or something. Pretty hot if you ask me.

sweet! my dad plans to buy one once its finally hits the showroom. I'm defiantly going to drive that *****...

This is probably the best executed "retro" car I've seen yet, new Mustang included. The profile of the Challenger is just mean as all hell and really gives you that muscle-car feel. Still, tipping the scales at over 4,000 pounds, this thing is a tank. Even if they are just shooting for a sub-14 1/4 mile, I would hope it would do better with over 400HP on tap. We'll just have to wait and see.

[MistaCee]

I'm sure that with a real gearbox and a man-pedal, it'll do better.

American muscle, I love it. :)

[wantboost]

[Kamikaze]

That airborne shot is awesome!

[neontuner95]

These srt 8's need to start coming with 6 speeds my 2 but I ll go test drive one when we get one in town.

[Nissan Sean]

its a good way to waste precious fossil fuel

[Revmaynard]

Mmm, I can't wait to see one of these. Can't believe it weighs more than the original. I think they came in just shy of 4k pounds.

[JITB]

i love it..

ran u owe us to post the pics in the thread!

[TheGrillMan]

love it, cant wait for the "man pedel" LOL

[OneSlow5pt0]

love it,right behind the new camaro in my book.......but 4k is alot but these cars have always been tanks....but just cause something is heavy don't mean it cant move,hell the SLR mclaren weighs just as much.......but then again is makes bout 300 more HP

[Tech5]

my charger is a 14.0 1/4 stock an weighs more, then the challenger, so am sure it will be

u know it goin to be forever if he wait for it to come to warner robins there might be one and i goin to say it wont last for a week

[Magnus213]

It's about time. I'm glad they didn't water it down.

Seriously, hasn't this car been a concept for over 5 years now? What the hell have they been waiting for? Honda brings concepts to production in roughly 20 minutes.

[GuessWho]

I actually saw one in person the other nite when i had to work the Wycleaf Jean concert at the tabernacle... pretty impressive... idk for sure if it was an SRT8 model tho?!?!?!?!.... they look mean as hell tho inperson...

[David88vert]

I just want to know how much it will cost....

[NevrNufTorq]

i think it's sweet all th eway around especially if the interior is as quiet on the road as most new dodges are!! throw a supercharger and exhaust and you're done :D

[Johnny Chimpo]

That dash will look alot better if painted.
