Pretty awesome. I think the Challengers are by far the best looking modern hotrods out there!! Wish I had one. I have been thinking off and on about the new SRT8 Chargers and Challengers.

I dont thinkcould sell it to buy one. I just love my boosted Merc too much.

Enjoy the heck out of it.

very nice. If there was a Dodge out there that I'd buy that would be it.

Vanishing Point.
I like the way the stripes accent the hip.

They make an S/C for them......;)

Yeah baby!!! That's the stuff dreams are made of. GM's are great, but that Challenger's even better!

Thanks for the compliments guys; Ive been wanting a new car for a while now and its was down to the the Challenger, the Camaro and the Mustang. All three are nice but the Camaro has no/no headroom if you are over 6 ft and frankly the Mustang is still a little tight (even if I have lost some weight!) The Challengers are basically built on the same chassis as the 300/Charger so in front it has about the same room as my old Marauder (back seat is harder to get into though but I dont sit there anyway). Ive liked the Challenger since 08 and was going to wait on a Plum Crazy Purple R/T but they dont come out til January and a meteor might strike or whatever between now and then so I went ahead on this one. I mostly dig the wheels, they look like oversized Cragars to me. Well, now Ive got three Dodges in the garage and a few years back I would have never thunk that! Im still a Wood Bros Racing guy though and as long as a few of you folks remember me and dont mind a Mopar dude here Ill hang around, a great group of folks locally (Maury/Pat/James/Mike) and all the nice folks/motorheads Ive met over the years here.

By the way, my avatar is now "Onkel Otto" from old German tv. When I was a kid living there in 1960 tv was only on about three hours a day and when they signed off at 9 pm this little cartoon dude would say "Auf weidersehen!" and that meant it was time for us kids to go to bed.

Looks nice! I must say having rode in a friends new challenger (as in 1500 miles on it) I was very impressed by ease of getting in and out and room. Not any worse for the front seats than the marauder, and seemed roomier in some aspects. Some bad blindspots, but otherwise nice. Rode much much smoother than my mm...was kinda sad actually.

I like the Challengers. Big body muscle just like the Marauder. They have wide body kits that I've seen that give it a sinister look. Congrats!

Sure is strange seeing your old car on Craigslist.
