Nice.
I hope they produce it. It would be interesting to see a two door on such a long four door platform. Front end will no doubt be longer then charger/300/magnum vehicles to compensate not having those extra doors, I'm assuming.
Wish there was more pics, and more info on it. I'll have to keep searching for more now.
Thanks for the info BlackRoseRacing!

I hope this thing eats the new Mustanks. I can't wait for an SRT version of this beast. That thing is awesome!

If they actually produce that, and it's anything like the pics........:drooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool:
More than likely...I'm sure it'll be a damn 4 door like everything else.......

The new Challenger will debut at the detriot auto this year. But, it won't have the retro look. It will be a look like a 2dr Charger. It will have a 6.4l Hemi with 510hp. It won't make production until 2008, though. See pics below.

The prospect of the Challenger is the reason my Dad only plans on leasing a Charger SRT8 next year, he hates 4-doors as much as I do and really hope the thing comes out.
And lets hope that if they make it that they offer it with a 6-speed, the fact that the current SRT-8s only have an auto is a major weak point IMO.

Agreed... unless they don't put a manual in one of the SRT models I'd be very hessistant on buying one... reguardless of the power the enjoyment of driving comes a lot from being in control of the car. I don't want the car to shift for me, expecially a sports car.

Even the 6-cyl cars should have sticks, that would be the only one to make one of those fun, and IMO they would have to to compete with the Mustang. Why they don't offer a stick in any of the cars on that platform is beyond me, esp. V6 cars.

we enthusiats only represent a small percentage of the market so the way we think doesnt always reflect what the general public thinks

while this is 100% true, who were the SRT cars made for?
