I saw 1 in person the other day @ the local dealership & I have to say that is a bad@$$ ride!!! They pulled off the "New Retro" look better than any other thus far & it looks identical to an older Challenger, but better. They definitely look pretty damn heavy, bulky, & wide though. The interior looks like it could easily seat 4 adults without issue... Looks like it would be a nice comfy daily driver with plenty of power....Here are the pics I took....

I delieverd some cars to Carmean Dodge in Shingle Springs and they had two of them. Black and orange ones, the first thing I noticed was how big they were. They looked as big as the chargers just with two doors. Hopefully we see some real track numbers from them and see what they are really made of and see some aftermarket parts for them.

that is a bad ass ride I used to think Ford did a pretty good job retro'ing the 05+ Mustang to look like the 60's models, but damn...this definitely mirrors the early model Challenger.
It does look heavy, but very sleek and sexy. I'm sure a blacked out model would look bad ass ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

$41,000 sticker. 13 MPG city, 18 MPG highway with todays current market and gas prices. 4140 lbs based on a 10 year old Mercedes chassis (97-02 E class). $15k-$30k mark ups. Same bland ass steering wheel from the Charger. The look of the car is right, they just didn't pull it together in the overall package.

Sorry a 4000+lb automatic car with a $25k+ markup doesn't appeal to me.
In that price range you might as well be going with a used Viper!

I saw one on the freeway comin from the Pleasanton meet. It does look nice. it already has a 6.1, can you imagine the power when you add a supercharger onto it? But I still like mustangs better.
