the best car coming from the US next year, imo:
2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 arrives at $37,995 Posted Nov 29th 2007 8:36AM by John Neff Filed under: Car Buying, Coupes, Sports/GTs, Dodge UPDATE: Three videos added after jump, including the "It's On" commercial and interviews with the Challenger's designers. As we revealed a few days ago, the first Dodge Challengers to go on sale will only be 2008 SRT8 models. Today we've learned that those 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8s will carry an MSRP of $37,995 (including $675 for destination) and that dealers will begin taking orders for them as early as December 3rd. That's next Monday, people. If you were expecting to have the whole month of December to convince your domestic partner that a Challenger is much more important than Christmas presents, the deadline for that convincing argument has just been moved up. The 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 will be available in three colors: Black, Silver and HEMI Orange. All will feature the same carbon fiber hood stripes as the concept vehicle, as well. The iconic muscle car that looks poised to beat the Chevy Camaro to market by a good margin is, of course, powered by a 6.1L HEMI V8 that's available with a 5-speed automatic or six-speed manual (though prior reports state you need to wait for the '09 for the latter). While power figures have yet to be revealed, this engine makes 425 horsepower in other SRT8 vehicles. Stay tuned to us for more info on the 2008 Dodge Challenger as it becomes available, which we promise will be soon. We expect pricing for the rest of the lineup to be announced sometime around the Detroit Auto Show in January. Also check out the Dodge brand's official blog called Red Letter Dodge, as we find information gets posted there first usually. 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 arrives at $37,995 - Autoblog Last edited by lifeofpi; 12-01-2007 at 04:39 PM.. |

This car is a big "meh" for me (except for style and power of course), check out the Camaro instead. Its way more advanced than Shelby GT500 and Challenger (particularly the suspension).

^^ after the GTO, i dont care for american muscles.... now if it's american i just look at caddy's and the gmc/chevy trucks... the challenger just seems like it might have some potential, but apart from that, it looks really nice..and that's what's got me hooked
