I like the 70 style grille and tail lights. I would like to see the Ram taken off of the hood. Overall I love the new Challenger. I will probably wait untill the 09 comes out or when or if a convertible model is available.
SRT 8 Hemi 6 speed plum crazy rag top for me.

Thanks for posting. I am really cornfused now. I thought it had a manual gearbox initially? Whats up with that? No Offense to vintage auto owners as the old A-833 left a lot to be desired as far as ergonomics and shifting abilities on tight winding roads as in big cities and Countrys where the Interstate type road system arent prevailant or in use at all. That being said, WTF, the new gen,gearboxes are tight, easy to use and best of all, it's the total muscle car package, Hemi, fat ruber, killer brakes, taut suspension/chassis, it needs a freaking slushbox man. My opinion.... :mrgreen:

Thats too bad Ian, maybe an enthusiast here could assist you someway. I have some relatives that own a Dodge Dealership here in town. They have owned it for over 40 years and sold many muscle cars during the day, including my R/T. They would be happy to help. :thumbsup:
