Check out this note and the pics.  With Dodge playing the crowds how
far off can the Challenger be from production?

Look out, Mustang!

Wow!  Awesome.  Ford has got to up the ante to play this game.  And you
can bet they've seen this stuff already.

BTW, further down in the thread there's this site with more Challenger
pix, not to mention the row of Ford GTs (all with Cali tags):

That's a beautiful thing...

I'm certainly interested, can't wait for pricing and options info.

With one of the lesser hemis under the hood, I'll bet they could really
impact
Mustang GT sales at the 25k pricepoint.

Yeah... THAT car is a beut.. but note that it's because it reproduces all
the good point of the original's body lines.

Will Chrysler take the hint from what we think and avoid modernizing it
with a 'rib-cage beltline', like the charger and the other 'hemi's'?

It is NOT the super hemi that's gonna make the car viable.  It's the
looks.

It's the only car in recent memory that looks great to me from *every*
angle.

I'm hoping...
The Charger concept certainly got hit with the ugly stick, in the move from
turntable-to-showroom.

Indeed!
Just give me _that_ body...I'll gladly handle the upgrades as needed.  :)

Independent rear suspension eh?  Of course the Mustang concept had one
too I believe.
