Guy brought this fine automobile to the track on Wednesdays test n tune, 1200 miles on it.

I got to line up against him, it was HIGHLY discussed around the track, everybody was geeked a GTO was lined up next to the challenger.

Pics and video:

 

i saw this on the mustang forums what was the da?

 

nice

 

oh mah god that car is hot

 

13.5 out of the box.. someone put some slicks and a pro charger on that beast and see how she does!!

 

I still rather have a GTO, but nice

 

i love the seats on goats, cant beat them...challenger is not to hot on looks, i'd take a blown g8 anyday

 

yea, the challenger had a really bad start

 

the challenger looks amazing, not really feeling GTO's, but thats JMHO.

 

both cars are very nice. i saw one of the new challengers at porky's during back to the 50s here in minnesota and it was a sweet car to see. good run from both cars and glad you could get a vid of it

 

i'd give a nut for a new srt-8 challenger.

i'd give both for a new upcoming camaro ss.

you couldn't give me a gto

 

I'll say this: Dodge has whipped everybody's ass so far in the retro-muscle department.

 

that's for sure...only ones to get the retro-styling right.

better than right...perfect, imo.

still...i'd still take the camaro

 

Tough choice for me. I want to see the two side by side and compare stuff. That Camaro will be hot.

Ford needs to step up its game and redesign the Mustang to look more faithful to the original or else they will get reamed. They got the right idea... it just ended up being too fat and slow.

In this insane PC era of tree huggers, gasoline being worth a fortune, and omnipresent law, I think it's really great that Detroit can still produce machines like these. This might be the last gasp of red-blooded American automotive masculinity, so I will embrace it wholeheartedly and hope that the future isn't as jacked up as I think it will be.

 

Wow that car looks just like their concept car. Amazing....Too bad GM didn't do the same with their camaro. Their camaro concept was amazing (as seen in the transformers movie)...But now the spy shots of the close to production camaro looks like sh*t in my opinion

 

i just shat. omg that car gives me a woody!

 

Nothing wrong with that!

 

 

I'm more than certain I could give you one and you would gladly take it. Unless you like running 16's, and having a nice comfortable interior.



JN2: Yes, do love my seats

My impressions on the Challenger after seeing it upclose like that, were very underwhelming.

Seeing at the autoshow 2 years ago, I was very impressed, but after being around Charger SRT8's, seeing the Challenger was like seeing a Charger Coupe, everything seemed the same.

And it was HUGE... made the GTO look like a compact car next to it.

Still, the exterior looks sick, the rest, meh.

 

I'm pretty unimpressed by the challenger, it weighs almost 4200lbs, I mean I know its got a pretty big motor, but the viper is in the 3400's, the corvette 3200's, and the stang is 3300 or 3400 I think with the gt500 at 3800's. Theres no reason it should be that much of a boat. A car thats supposed to be a stock 425hp rwd car should not be running the same 1/4 mile times as a 300hp rwd car like the mustang gt. I'd way rather take a mustang gt anyday. A gto, a camaro, or a mustang are all better cars than the challenger imo.

 

You're right... it's a heavy beast. But look at it!

If I bought one, I'd want a room with a revolving floor so I can just sit and stare at he car while it slowly spins around.

Then I would grow my sideburns long, wear 70's sunglasses, and take it to the beach to seduce hot jailbait girls.

 

The gto prob had **** done to it

 

Uhh... are you that dumb? I POSTED THE VIDEO, I SAID I LINED UP NEXT TO IT, look at my sig..
lol
God .net is so ******* entertaining all the time.

 

13.4@103?guess it would give a good match vs the ss/tc

 

Mind you this was on a very bad air night, I was running 2-3 tenths slower and 2-3 mph slower then I did a month ago.

I would like to see it run in the fall.

Saw a black Challenger at a local cruise tonight, makes the orange look like ****
