This picture was on our closed circut TV at work on Monday. I didn't get a chance to read what it said, but if it's on DCTV, maybe it is being considered!

I guess its silly to ask for pricing now, but what does everyone think? I am guessing that the one they are talking about with the 6.1L will be the SRT8 Challenger and will be very expensive. I am assuming that they will have a v-6, maybe 4.7, definatly 5.7 and then the 6.1 SRT option. They are going to need to compete with the Mustang pricing and options. The V6 Mustang makes up most of the production. I also assume that it will be priced below the luxury muscle Charger, just like the old days.

Now that the spy shots have been authenticated, I have to say that I'm very excited about the new Challenger. For as much of an opponent that I am to the 4 door Charger, I am that much, if not more, in favor of seeing the concept car become a reality.
It's got what I like; retro body lines, dual sport mirrors, power bulge hood, pistol grip, exhaust tips, and a 1971esque grill. The aftermarket or even MP can take care of the rear spoiler, shaker hood, stripe kits, 1970ish grill.
After the dissapointment of the Charger, I had planned on buying an econobox for gas mileage and use my RR as a "driver". After seeing this concept Challenger, I'm considering selling the RR and buy this as a daily driver since I'm only 4.7 miles from work.
I'm glad to see that the design dept. at DC has finally caught on.

They've been "authenticated"?? By whom?
The people that work, or know people that work at DC, as well as the people that recieved letters from DC.

Why is it so hard to believe that that car is the concept Challenger? Why would the leading auto industry publication Autoweek put their neck out and say it is if it isnt? Why would Dodge have a artists rendering of the Challenger concept that looks exactly like the photos? Why would DC execs be commenting about its retro looks? Is it the total disbelief that they would build what we want after the Charger nightmare?
How about we focus on sending over positive feedback about the concept so they actually build it? I for one would put money down NOW on this car. They built the Viper, Prowler, GTS, PT Cruiser 300 and others directly off well received concepts! Just because they didnt build the 99 concept Charger dosent mean we wont see this car. Not for nothing, this concept is 100% better in every catagory then the 99 Charger concept.
