[Haze28]

[zenriddles]

Someone finish this story for me -
"I heard they were all going to be Orange the first year...

 

[Since 1964]

For 09 they're ALL automatic 5 speeds, and ALL SRT/8's, and that's ALL. 10's get 6 speeds and maybe something else. Theres a smaller 5.7 ltr. V8, and base V6 comming also. I'm pretty sure they're all sold also.

I towed one today from barrington to schamburg. No start and jumpin it wouldn't do it either. Starter I think was bad. Sorry for the spelling just got home from a hell of a long day in a tow truck.

how fast r they sup to be? will a pullied cobra beat it?

 

[blck10th]

the mags. claim low 13's they are auto only for now so stock our cars should take them out.

 

[219Cobra]

The challengers eveyone is seeing are all srt8s. There are 6400 of them made for 08 all autos and most are spoken for. There are 3 colors to choose from being hemi orange,black and silver. Most are running low 13s stock. So a stock cobra should be able to beat them. 09s will come with 6speed manual and be available in 3 trim levels. Just look on dodge.com for all the info on the 09s. Sorry for the long post just wanted to get the facts straight. Plus I am bored at work. Gotta love the iphone.

 

[BlaqSnake]

I haven't seen any yet.

Not as bad as I do, and I ain'ttak'n no chances since I think even a blown on won't make much over 550 at the crank, but I could be wrong, maybe they'll build it with a forged bottom end.

stock 5.7's can make around 600 on the stock bottom end, dont know about the 6.1's

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

What the fuck has happened to the so called "muscle car". Running 13's lmfao. Don't they realize that SUV's and BMW's are outrunning them? Retards

yea but look how long it took them to do it. remember, muscle cars used to run 12's back in the 60's, then they got slammed for emissions and had to start over from ground up.

So now we have to pay top dollar for something that is slower and MUCH less practical than an SUV or bimmer 3 series???? No thanks. All the daily drivers (lexus, bimmer, cadillac) are getting faster and MUCH nicer and more refined while muscle cars just get worse and worse in every way. The new challenger is a total waste. I can't wait to see one at the track getting fucked up by stock ls1's and bolt on GT's that are 10 years old and 1/5th the price.

 

[Ear Rak]

i'll agree that the challenger is a waste.

i think the problem is, that they're going after the baby boomer age with these cars. they're making them more daily driver like and just fast enough to feel nostalgic. They're trying to bring back the muscle car's original crowd but the thing is, theres more people our age that would want these cars than there are old farts looking to relive the past.

You're definetely right about the baby boomer thing. I'm not sure that very many people our age would really consider spending this much cash (assuming they had the funds) on a car so slow and heavy, but who knows. Basically, the way i see it, it will be a toy for a select few old men that know nothing about cars or racing, and have no idea that the new bimmer 3 series he just bought his wife would hand him his ass in a race.

well i didnt mean this car specifically. i'm saying us :quote:youngins:quote: would rather spend the money on a muscle car that would hand that bimmer its ass.
