Wow,

That is just awful. I saw the exact same wing on a Grand Prix and some APC stickers on the side of it this morning. Just awful.

The wheels....I guess they were designed for the thug-lifers in Memphis.

I think it is ugly...

But I think four and six cylinders should be marketed to the little ricer trolls.

If they got into the Camaro it would lower the price of the V8's for us.

I say they have a four or six cylinder in the drift events.

I really like the Challenger exterior but the interior is just plain shoddy. Its exactly the same as a Charger and I cant stand it. If you like mods might as well steer clear of the Hemi. Parts are few and far between and when you can get them they are expensive not to mention the total price of the car. Just too much for what it is IMHO.

Im liking what they are adding for sure. Not too shabby with all the add on stuff for the most part. At least they ARE mocking up stuff.

I agree the new challenger looks SOOOOOOO much better then the new camaro and the mustang. But the performance just isnt going to be their.


I think GM needs to hire me just to tell them what looks good or not lol.

I like it because it shows that there is some appearance potential. I'll be interested to see what actually comes out

When it starts showing up in real life and sits next to Mustangs and new Camaros you will see it for the massive land barge that it is. 4000+ lbs is not going to get it done against a definintely lighter Mustang (with new more powerful standard engines coming soon I believe) or against the hopefully lighter Camaro (how much lighter remains to be seen, it certainly looks much smaller, more like Stang size.)

A ~3700 lb LS3 powered Camaro will stomp a mudhole in the Challenger, especially the 370hp standard affordable Hemi Challenger R/T models that will be coming out about the same time as the Camaro.

That must be The Fast and The Furious Edition. Take off the ground effects and the massive spoiler. Add a small spoiler like the 1st gen.

They look so fat and heavy. This one looks like it would have a .40 Cd. Scary with 3700+lbs and gas the way it is.

I don't think it looks all that bad.. Atleast they're trying and putting some different options out there...

Hell I'm just happy they're bringing back the F-Body.. You would think people would be happy about it and quit the bitching until they see an actual one but I guess not..
