Default Thoughts on new Challenger

I am starting to see these street more often...I think they are so bad ass looking...really reto'ed nicely. Of all the recent retro styled muscle cars I think they are the nicest. I only wish GM did the same with the GTO. A retro'ed 67 GTO would be so nice.

Thoughts??

I love the exterior, im not that impressed with Dodge interiors lately. And the car is a pig. 4100 lbs. But im totally in love with the new G8s.

They look great. But like every new car out there they are heavy a fuck. Also it's in desperate need of lowering springs.

My brother is looking very hard at them. We have been to the dealer several times, but waiting till the first of the year. Currently, you can only offset that weight with the SRT8 package. Since he also wants the 6-speed, we will probably order one come the first of the year. I really like it as well, but the nose is a little short to me. I like the old school look of any car, but I really like this one too!!
