Lack of V6 could hurt anyone getting a cheap Challenger...thank God for V6 Stangs, Maros, and Birds...we could not afford them otherwise. Think how much cheaper the Goat could have been with a V6 variant. We might be driving a lot more of those now...instead of our ancient FBodies.

Looks like you can start ordering them price starts at $40,095 not such a great buy considering the GT500's weight the same and have 75 more hp and are actually starting to sell at MSRP. Problem is the price is going to stay high on the challenger because from what I have read it is only going to be a limited production model which means no mass sales of low-end models to help bring down production costs. Still not bad car I think the car shown in the picks would probably look much closer to the concept if it had a bright color scheme as well.

Someones wires got crossed. Here is the deal, as for the tires...in some pictures the rears are on the front and the fronts are on the rear. Its testing stuff. They are making 9000 2008's, all 6.1L HEMI 425HP with Automatics. They were initially only going to make 5500 but they sold out so fast and demand is incredible, they upped it to 9000...they are all pre-sold. 001 will be sold at Barrett Jackson tomorrow (Saturday night). For 2009 (production starting April) They will be making 3.5L V6 models, 380HP 5.7L HEMI models and the 6.1L models PLUS an above SRT edition with 500++ HP. Starting in 2009 T56 6-speeds will be available as part of the super track pack. This is fact, not fiction. Ive been following this car from the start and was the guy that brought both the body shell pictures and the dealer show pictures of it to the internet.
