Let's hope that when Dodge has to compromise the design to get it built they don't make it a four-door like the Charger. I think they really blew it when they had to do the Charger with four doors. "Charger" and "four doors" just don't compute.

Darren,

Low blow on the Chevelle comment. Great looking Mopar!

Rumors about the 392 CI / 510 HP Hemi race engine as a future option for the Chally! read more....

"There are rumors that the new 392 Hemi crate engine, designed for racing, will go along with the new Dodge Challenger body. The 392 is apparently a racing-only engine in current form, not a production design, but a lower-power version may well be made for production and appear in the Challenger. The Challenger concept car to be shown at NAIAS (Detroit, January 2006; the Camaro will also be shown) uses, not surprisingly, the SRT-8 6.1 liter engine — but, unlike any current production LX car, it also has a six-speed manual gearbox. (Automobile suggested that the 510 horsepower 6.4 liter 392 Hemi might be used.) There are issues with the 392 - most notably the question of what untrained drivers will do with that much power. A fairly large number of Vipers left this world unexpectedly."

Nice hips!

Did you notice they mention a six speed AUTOMATIC? Sure hope that is an option only. Anybody hear any mention of available colors?
