So far it kicks ass.....but it just started raining....so in the garage it goes.....:disgust

awesome ride Jim!

Good choice.

nice looking ride

vroom vrooom ... where does the baby seat go ??

That would have been my choice as well.

Europeans Billing Europe!
 

Very Nice :thumbsup

Nice car, OldSchoolJim, looks very good.

Soooo nice! Great choice :)

Tony rocks out in the passenger seat....only thing left to do is powder coat the rims a nice flat black....and its set.

NOICE! Here's my SRT8

:thumbsup good choice!

nice car jim

Oh and a word of warning, the blind spots in this thing are a bitch! However they're better then the Camero's IMO.

Awesome pick! You made the right choice, it roooooocks.

I test drove one of those last week... I felt like I could get to Raleigh in 1.5 hours :)

Looking gooood!

Awesome Jact...i dunno....i drove both several times....the challenger just felt more "GUY" than the camaro did....might just be me being a mopar guy....plus i am "old school" and the challenger stuck more to a traditional muscle feel

I got into the SS and I felt like I was in a space ship. I like my driver area to be neat, clutter free and not look like a Christmas tree all light up. Please tell me you got the track pack? These cars are such a waste with the automatic!

Nice car.

Time to update the watermark maybe?

congrats :)

Totally agree with you there. The bodylines on the Chally are so much more of a throwback to the old look and feel of the Challenger, moreso I think than any of the other new and updated versions of old muscle have.

i don't recommend a flat black pc for those wheels

why not get the real thing instead of a bastardized version of it?

Yea..got the track pack....was a must!

I did think about that actually.....i also thought about a few other old muscle cars in the same price range....but...i want new technology....better brakes...better handling..etc....and i do believe the original challenger was lacking in the HP dept at the tires....

Get yourself a DiabloSport Predator. If you don't do any other upgrades to it, the tune is a must. It'll wake the car up hugely. They run around $400 and you can reset the factory tune for when you take it to the dealership for service.

The <1971 Challenger had the engine, the >1971 Challenger had the styling but lacked the engine. I'm thinking about getting a 72-74 and putting a crate in 'er and making it my drag car.

hmmm.....dont know...i think black is definitely the way to go on the rims

how about returning my icq or email or voicemails or messages

Hit me up....i am here now....been way too busy last few weeks to continually go over it....

black yes, flat black no. i tried it on my wheels and had to change it, looks ghetto on a nice car. like it was rattle canned and the flat black isn't a smooth finish so brake dust will get caught in it over time and it's a bitch to clean off.

i've powder coated a SHIT load of things on my motorcycles and cars. The flat black looks good on some parts but will not look good with a car like that.

when you get to the coater, you will find they will have many different variations on black.

i would suggest a satin black, not flat and not glossy.

Thanks man...SATIN will definitely be the way to go....will match several parts on the car

Threadjack for one post. Forest, please hit me up [email protected] thanks man!.

I'm just waiting for springtime, but Jim thats spot on what I have in mind.
SWEET Ride Man

Congrats! That is going to be seriously good fun to drive.

I really love the new challenger and your choice looks great, but the camaro ss drivetrain will out perform the challenger any day of the week.

Sweet looking ride

when it comes down to 10ths of a second in performance, it's everything else that determines the purchase.

so your comment is moot.

definitely I love 69'Camaro's ,but don't like the back of the new ones(tail lights)
I think they fully did the Challenger right. Stayed more true :thumbsup

Haha!! You SR8T suckers LOSE!!!

Check out my ride: 2010 Camaro 2SS/RS: 426 HP of sweet sweet lovin'.

The Challenger SRT8 are good enough for CONTENT maybe, you know, to like pick up makeup and groceries and smack, but everyone knows that successfull program owners (and LiveCamNetwork authors AHEM drive REAL cars....!)
