Naa Way too calm. Needs to be a little more forceful. Plum Crazy is also back. Sold a couple already.

Too bad they couldn't cut down the front fascia and round the sides a little.Otherwise they got it right.

What is Patsy going to say about the optional crew member standing by the driver's door? Check out that guy's expression standing behind the car!

Ed man are you feeling alright today? Of the three re-emerging members of the pony car era muscle cars, the 2010 Challenger is the baddest looking of them all (imho)! Fortunately I get to see them daily traversing I-10 between Phoenix & Casa Grande, Az.

Almost unfortunately for one of the new owners...75 wasn't fast enough for him, and our highway patrol almost made him regret his desire to go faster....he should've been out at Firebird International Raceway like the 2010 Camaro & Mustang owners were (plus only one of the Challengers), and he could've gone no holds barred down the quarter....

If you put three people next to each other and say one is 700#,the next is 600# and the third is 500#, they're all over weight.I would have liked the Challenger to have had a smaller front end look and more curved sides,not the slab sides it has.
I won't even go into the wheel size,that's another story.
I'm old and I guess Ijust don't like the newer cars.Just a matter of taste.
And I'm feeling just fine today.

Bill, I don't care much for that optional crew member!! But I do like the pink car! The purple one is pretty, too!

I think we will just keep the old pink car, though!!

Jeff, I have a 2009 Hemi Orange R/T six speed with 7200 miles. What the going rate retail on these ? I might have to sell mine. sadly.

Thanks,

Ed, Im with you these new ones are TOO big. I love the Camaro but what a blimp! Mustang is the better size of all of them...

Well Ed, I'm glad you're feeling just fine today, and I must agree with you on the wheels...they're way too big...what happened to 15" wheels being sufficient for most muscle cars (if not 14's)? I'll also agree that the cars should've been lighter too, but for looks that Challenger is still one cool looking ride!!!

I guess you can't get "Bimbo" brakes on them with 15" rims.

We have at current 2 of the 3 Challenger Body styles

I a 72, FC7 (not original of course soon to be twin turbo Hemi 6 speeed as soon as I get home and have a month to spend with her)

My old mans 70 FC7 Coupe, and 70 FC7 6Pak

Then the 2 new ones.

Now about a year ago, before the Orange one was striped, I parked next to an Orange Challenger at a Car show....

A bit later a Duster parked on the other side of me, it dawned on me , it looked like the Duster and the 70 (both orange) cars had a Baby.....the SRT8.....

My dad ordered the custom shoulder stripe right after, FULL length, with narrow pins around, really takes down the "slab side" first thing the dealer and about 19 other people who had seen and were familiar with the car....YOU LOWERED IT !?! Nope....all visual.

I really want a Panther Pink one.....If I had a white interior without stealing the one from my dads coupe, I would but I have an all new black interior, if youre gonna do pink gotta do white to.
