Dodge Challenger

Cringer · 01-08-2006, 04:40 PM

Not talking the 70's here, I mean the new version. Loren saw this somewhere and showed me. I want one, it better be put into production in the next year or so because that's when I will be ready to get a car.

here is an article i found that gives some good info...

My first car was a 71 dodge challenger. I got my hopes up when I saw this thread. Didn't know there was a new one being made!

Seems like all the car companies are trying to capture the retro look.

That car will be cool until the second guy decides to put a confederate flag and 01 onto it.

*cough*

The "General Lee" was a Charger, not a Challenger.

Yeah, of course, but that looks more similar to the old school Charger than the new charger does(which looks nothing like the old school charger).

Supposedly GM is trying to bring back the Camero.

I also hope that this is an intentional typo...it amazes me how many keep referring to the Camaro as the Camero. Really bugs me for whatever reason.

Anyway, I wish they hadn't stopped making the Dodge Avenger. Was my first new car, and I thought it looked pretty cool (for '95 and the price range I was in). I think they had a modified version that was used in racing and I always thought they could make a more powerful version of it, but it never happened.

(Ok, I guess it is still around, only as the "Stratus Coupe". Avenger sounds much cooler.)

Give me a Chevette, or give me death.

Craptacular · 01-08-2006, 09:15 PM

Think they'll ever bring back the Dodge Shadow?

With a Hemi, of course.

I love this car. I love the retro look. I just bought an Outback station wagon last year, so it will be a while before I can buy something cool like that. For now, it will be domesticated H_B in his station, no, check that, sports wagon. Oh yeah...

16-year-olds don't "swing". At least I didn't. But I did get lucky in the big backseat.

Hopefully it was with more than an ant-laden sock.

Cars that my family owned while I was growing up...

Duster, Maverick, Gremlin, Omni, Escort

I guess every 4 years my parents went to a dealership and asked.. "Got anything new that people will make fun of us?" At least I was spared the Pacer...

I sort of liked the Duster back then. There were certainly worse cars.
