  7. SMOKEYGStAr Says:

    I? love this car but to damn SWOLE!!!! It’s like Bodybuilder trying fight to heavy for car lololololololol

  8. Jimberlice Larochelle Says:

    Although I do love? the challenger but since it so heavy, I would like if it was just a torque beast, either that or a diet.

  9. Jimberlice Larochelle Says:

    I? hope the challenger is not replaced by the barracuda. but I heard the might replace the camaro with the Firebird. I would like that. Do not quote me on that. camaro’s kinda suck by the way. not trying to hurt any feelings.

    I shrieked? at 0:12, Fingerprints on the car :/

    Lol there seems to be a lot of people who think? that. I think the exterior looks ok but the Challenger is definitely the best looking out of the 3 in my opinion. The Mustang looks great and has a nice interior but the Challenger looks like it could crush a Mustang any day with it’s size and front end. It’s awesome. The Camaro’s interior sucks with all of the cheap plastic and lack of nicer materials that the Challenger and Mustang interiors have. The visibility is horrendous as well.

  12. ryanmxn Says:

    not to? mention, the Camaro is ugly and generic looking.

    couldnt of said it more perfectly? man =] the front of this car is just so aggressive looking, i love it!

  15. mhtube01 Says:

    Totally agree with you. I just saw the ad for the Barracuda and now I’m really worried they’re going? to get rid of the Challenger. I will be so sad if they do. Idk why Chrysler would do that though, it’s an American legend and one of their most popular cars! They’ve done a great job with it and if they made the interior a little more stylish, it would be even better. The good material quality is there, but I think it could be a little more visually appealing. The exterior is perfect.

  16. mhtube01 Says:

    Me too. The new Shelby GT500 is supposed to have 650 hp and capable of a 200 MPH top speed. That’s awesome but who in hell would want to go that fast in a Mustang? body?! Not me! I’d rather be going that speed in something like a Corvette ZR1 or a Ferrari. The Challenger on the other hand, stays true to it’s roots, MUSCLE! You can actually take this beast on a road trip and be comfortable the whole way. Just the front end alone screams muscle. It’s awesome and hopefully one day I’ll have one.

  17. kunemkez69 Says:

    this care is just pure raw muscle, and thats what i love about? it

  18. mhtube01 Says:

    Nice! Enjoy it! I want to at least drive one so badly, especially an SRT-8 with the 6 speed manual. I? don’t care what people say, this car means business. It really announces it’s presence on the road.

  19. kunemkez69 Says:

    hell ya….and thats the exact reason why i am getting it? bro =]

  20. ttaylormm Says:

    Then with those super turbo engines will be a fast car high performance and addition to the Dodge family. Lets just say that hoping that they? wont stop Challenger production for the Barracuda. How bout making the improvements then letting there be additions to the family. So lets make the Barracuda and keep the Challenger.

  21. ttaylormm Says:

    I still adore this car for it is really the fastest car. Its a superb vehicle that just needs some adjustments remember that with the foreign competition you are dealing with scientist that makes the cars. I will always drive this car. All it needs is gas conservation, and more performance drive as for straight line only lest just say we don’t drive a straight line all the time. If they need a smaller car to? perform then they should use the Avenger, or Dart with super turbo engines.

  22. ttaylormm Says:

    What is the speed on the turns. I am really concerned with the cornering. If it Street Racing Tech. The emphasis should not be on straight line only performance but all around performance to do what any other car can do. I drove the 2011 R/T but had a cornering problem. I slid when making a sharp lane change and would have went into a wall if not for the? Stability Traction Control which is supremely effective. It was raining but I cars at high speed passed me with no effort.
