Damn this car looks good. I couldn't help but stare at it for 10 minutes. I wonder how long the wait list will be to get one when they first come out.

How about the one I got to drive back in 1990?

1971 Challenger R/T, V code (440 6pack), Super Trackpack (4 speed, 4.10 Dana 60, hemi suspension and all the other HD goodies) and fully restored and had the annoying rimblow steering wheel.

Good lord did that car ever move off the line.

My second car, oh the memories:D

I got into way too much trouble in that. My mom knew it was fast, and she is a real joker. I ALWAYS took it easy in our neighborhood (dont crap in your own nest).

One day she wanted some stuff from the store, and suggested we take my car. She wanted to drive. She backs out of the driveway, and proceeds to light them up right there in front of the house! I was like Gah and woah mom and reaching over and she turns to me and smiles sweetly, "gotcha son".

My first car was a tiger orange 1970 Challenger with a suped up 383 and a four barrel. it had side pipes, 60's in the back 70's in the front, and a fin on the back. Fast as hell but sucked on gas. I wish I would have kept that car.

i like the camaro better, simply because it IS different from the vintage camaros... IMO, the challenger looks too much like a carbon copy

In 2008 the NASCAR Dodge teams are goping to switch from the Charger to the Challenger. Of course just like the Charger they use currently I doubt the Challenger will look anything like the Challenger.

Rumor has it that the Camaro might have the LS9 they're developing for the Corvette. Can you say 650hp stock Camaro?MMmmmmmmmm

Sadly no way; that thing is gonna weigh like 4000lbs no joke. The current GTO is 3800lbs with a 400HP 6.0L V8 and is rated 17/25 with the 6-speed (28mpg highway is reasonable tho). Sorry Dodge...

Here is a pic of the new Challenger. The location the pic was taken is the place you'll be most likely to find one.

Hehe if you say so. Want to compare balance sheets, you little runt? I warn you, I'm not a trust fund baby living with my parents. Everything I have, I earned.

Just because you have a good "balance sheet" doesn't mean anything. You can take the trash out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out of the trash.

I never lived in a trailer, so you would probably know better than I about that.
