guess what i saw on the road
 
i was driving back from my gf's house and i look in the rearview and see some funky headlight so i slow down and its a brand new orange challenger. i didnt have time to take pics or anything but it was awesome!:-P

Challengers are fat. They're only nice in pictures when they airbrush that 600lb's away :mrgreen:

usp55 09-18-2008 09:07 AM

Im starting to see them more and more in my area, orange one a few days ago and a white one that looked awesome drove past me as i was sitting at a red light

I've seen them in person and think they look good.

I saw one for sale at the Mini dealership on 17 :?:

Lt1_8U 09-18-2008 10:37 AM

they have a silver one and a black one for sale at the one on 23, the sussex automall i think. i believe bert beynolds is buying on or has bought one from there also:nod:

maroman88 09-18-2008 10:53 AM

i see em all over in my area..... i only like the front inset grille area, the rest is blahhhhh and orange is so worn out on them already... its not quite bright or dark enough just blahhh in the middle

GP99GT 09-18-2008 10:56 AM

theres one at butler dodge on 23 also

Love the new challenger, glad to see it didn't succumb to being a 4 door automatic like the charger did. You can get the 426 hemi in the new ones and the pistol grip shifter. Wonder if they are going to make a Vanishing Point remake with the new one. That'd be awesome. -Jeff.

camaroracer1992 09-18-2008 09:51 PM

Teds89IROC 09-18-2008 10:36 PM

I saw one a couple of weeks ago on union blvd in totowa when I was leaving work...i like em

CJDZ24_Z28 09-19-2008 06:31 AM

They have been around for months. Gary Barbera's summer house is like 10 houses from me. He has a black one and orange. I seen my first silver one like a month ago. I like the look. First Chrysler product i'd consider buying

chemicalstylez 09-19-2008 08:37 AM

Saw one in Glassboro the other day on 47.... was trying to race him but he didn't seem too interested meh. I just wanted to embarass him in front of his girl.

It's most likely the dealership owners toy he played with for a few months. They do that crap at Fette all the time. The owner would 'borrow' the Saleens and Roushs and put several hundred miles on them then bring them back and try and sell them as new.

I know a guy who did that with a GT500, except he gave it to his 18 year old son :shock:

i also saw an orange one on 80E coming home from the nats last month. pulled over to the side of the road, no less.

qwikz28 09-20-2008 10:13 AM

saw one parked in ridgewood so i parked my car next to it. it really did trump my car, i had a picture of it but i don't know on who's camera

NJSPEEDER 09-20-2008 10:22 AM

I have seen a few of them around. I just have to ask, why did MOPAR make a sunroof an option? It looks completely retarded and you know that anyone who dropped the coin on the car is just going to turn on the AC anyway.

had to be custom painted b/c they didnt make them in White...atleast not the first year ones.
i saw a burghandy one at the Merchantville carshow...it was pretty sharp. started life as a black one but they did a good job of the color change.
id love to have one but its a hefty price, not to mention the mark up they are getting right now. another few months and they'll be sitting on dealers' lots going below sticker just like the GT500s.
