Agreed. The problem is that they will sell for $10K+ over their sticker price for months until the supply catches up to the demand. Remember the early '05 Mustang sales? Get ready for it again. All the while gas is criminally expensive, credit rates suck, the dollar is worthless, and millions of people are on the brink of forclosure. Welcome to America... :rolleyes:

BTW, the Demon is an abomination, just like the Charger. :( :wondering

The challenger looks to have the body style of the 68 69 Camaro and the new Camaro is still lacking something.

I'm going to date myself here and tell you young men about the old days. When I was still in high school high perpormance cars were everywhere and could be had for a song. I was just 18 and still in school when I got my first a 63 Chevy Impalla 409 4 speed. I paid $600 for it at the time and it was sweet. It didn't take long for me to wreck it and buy someting else.
My next car was a new 73 Plymouth Cuda, 318 auto and then my car payment was under a $100 for a brand new car. Well I couldn't live with it so in 74 I got a used 73 Cuda with the 340 and 4 gear. Still not enough power so out with the 340 and in with the 383 hi po. This was enough power to spank most anything in the day.
All in all the late 60's and early 70's were a lot of fun. Gas was cheap, cars were cheap, Drinks were cheap and so was hooter stash. Oh to go back in time.

that challenger and that 540 camaro is sexy.

for some reason, i just keep thinking that challenger would be amazing in flat black. why idk?

with the current gas mileage I'm getting with this 1.5L (14-24), I may as well have something with a little more thump.


OMG THAT BALDWIN-MOTION HAS THE LINGENFELTER ENGINE IN IT...

I saw one of those in a newer vette...the epitome of sickness.

I LOVE the new Challenger but im a Chevy fan but that new Camro is FUGLY. They tried to make it look like the first genreation Caramos but didnt come close as for Dogde now they can design a car I mean they even took the body lines from the 1970 challenger and put them in the 2008 challenger! Thats where its at, the old style not some ugly new concept. Damn the Baldwin Motion is SEXY!!!!

the challenger looks to thick. The silhouette looks very similar to the original but the car could have been made a little more sleek in design. Even the old ones look sleeker and somewhat slimmer in design, the new one just looks too bulky in places, mainly the entire side of the car. And the camaro, i think the die hard chevy guys love it simply for the name. There is definitely alot of improvement to be had in the design, the front of it looks too weird to be in any way cool.

The challenger looks very similar to the old ones but with a newer feel. The mustang looks fairly similar to the old ones but styled in a more modern way. The demon looks like some kind of beetle or other weird insect. The camaro? You've got me on that one...

I believe they are supposed to use the new LS3 engine from GM. 6.2L Small block.

The Challenger looks more "muscley" than anything else out right now. The Camaro looks frickin ugly, like something out of a comic book. The Demon... it just looks like a Hot Wheels car.

I think they all are ugly and gay except the new Mustang. I got to drive one of the new Chargers not too long ago....extremely unimpressed.

I think the Super Snake looks the best of all them. The new(er) Charger is a rebadged Chrysler 300C, which means it looks like a friggin' brick sliding around on the roads. Freakin' ugly. The only problem I have with the Challenger is the fat front bumper (the grill looks too skinny) and just how it looks "fat" overall.

THAT needs re-said.

Too bad you younger guys cant/havent seen MOPAR power at its finest. SCARY. There was a 340 six pack Demon in Lebanon Ohio years ago, when theyd start it, wed all come from the other side of town to watch. " The demon started, lets go see the flames!"

The last of the Real MoPars was the 78 440 Fury cop car I scored, then rebuilt and gave away for a song, like an idiot. It shook parked cars so hard just idling by them that it set off the car alarms!! The whole car rocked side to side on idle. 18 MPG highway too!

I still have nightmares about losing it.

Yeah, the Challenger looks similar but the mystique is gone. Average Joe cant afford it anymore.

One of the guys at my work was signed up for a challenger but changed his mind since the payments would equal a mortgage. I like the looks of the challenger.
