Jay Leno takes delivery of 2008 Challenger SRT8 #2
2008-06-05 02:00:00
If you saw The Tonight Show this past Monday, you may have noticed that Jay seemed a little... impatient. That's because earlier that day he took possession of his new Challenger SRT8. The second one built by Dodge! He's shown below at the dealership. The orange car is his 1970 Challenger that he brought along for the purposes of comparison. Jay's new Challenger was spotted later that day outside of The Tonight Show studio. Undoubtedly, he took the long way to get there. There's nothing worse than picking up your new car and then having to go to work! The first production Challenger was auctioned off for charity last January. Jay, being Jay, arranged to buy #2.

Leno takes delivery of first Challenger; Celebrities test drive for photo op After more than two years of development from concept to road car, Dodge has officially delivered the first of its 2008 Challenger SRT8s. The lucky owner? None other than the Tonight Show's Jay Leno. Leno picked up the car on Tuesday from a Dodge dealer in Van Nuys, California. In true muscle car and Leno style, the comedian arrived at the dealership in his own vintage Challenger, complete with a 426 Hemi underhood. After a quick walk around and some publicity shots, Leno drove the black Challenger right off the dealer showroom floor and on into the sunset. As with all 2008 Challengers, Leno's is powered by a 425 horsepower 6.1L Hemi V8. Despite being the first to take delivery, Leno's car was not Challenger #1. That vehicle was sold at auction for more than $400,000. In keeping with the celebrity theme, Dodge also hosted a celebrity test drive of the new Challenger in Southern Cali...

Dodge Challenger SRT8 causes hour delay at Detroit-Windsor Tunnel
2008-05-12 12:41:00
Dodge Challenger SRT8 causes hour delay at Detroit-Windsor Tunnel The 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 has been making touring the U.S. auto shows for a few months now, but apparently the new hasn't worn completely off yet. A Challenger SRT8 piloted by Chrysler Canada CEO Reid Bigland caused an hour delay at the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel as the border patrol checked out the new ride. The Chrysler exec was traveling from his Ontario office to his Detroit office when the incident occurred. Apparently the border patrol inspected every inch of the car before letting it pass, causing an hour delay for everyone behind Bigland. But despite the attention the car received, Bigland didn't garner much attention. "They checked out everything but my ID," Bigland told The Detroit News.

InsideLine: 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 vs. 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt
2008-05-02 21:37:00
From the review: “So is the $40,145 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 really some $5,440 better than the $34,705 2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt? Yes, and when we crunched all the numbers into our comparison test formula, factoring performance, features, price, evaluation scores and personal/recommended choices, the Challenger won by three points. This might not be a win decisive enough for some budget conscious muscle-car buyers, especially if we’re accurately predicting at least a $5,000 dealer markup for the first year’s allotment of Challenger SRT8s. After all, if you have $45,000-$50,000, you could consider the 500-hp Shelby GT500, which is quicker than the Bullitt or the Challenger SRT8. Then again, even the Shelby has a live axle and the same interior as a common Mustang. Here’s the bottom line. Be patient. Let the guys who gotta have ‘em go ahead and snap up every 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 with its automatic transmission, brake-lock differential and dealer ...

Barry Newman drives the production 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8
2008-05-01 15:06:00
Barry Newman, star of the 1971 cult classic "Vanishing Point", will always be associated with the Dodge Challenger because of his epic cross-country race in a then-new white Challenger in the movie. So who better to interview and put behind the wheel of a production 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 than he? Motor Trend does just that: http://www.motortrend.com/av/fe-atures/112_0804_2008_dodge_chal-lenger_srt8_barry_newman_interv-iew_video Follow the link to the video and thru to the accompanying article. If you're not familiar with "Vanishing Point", read the review here: CarMovieEnthusiast.com and- buy the movie here thru Amazon.com: There was also a remake from 1997 starring Viggo Mortensen. And while it's weak, and while we'd expect better from Viggo, an original white Challenger is still the highlight of this film: An interesting question for my readers: how many of you will buy your Challenger in white?  
AutoWeek on the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8
2008-05-01 14:34:00
AutoWeek reviews the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. Follow the link in the title of this post to AutoWeek. The review is generally good, repeating all we've heard before about Dodge's new ponycar. But there are a couple of ominous words in the review. The 4th paragraph in reminds the reader that this car is built from a shortened 300C/Charger platform. 4 inches taken out of the wheelbase still leaves the wheelbase 9 inches longer than the Mustang. And the SRT8 weighs in at 4140, 200 pounds more than a Shelby Mustang coupe. The driving sensations are quote "an interesting blend of past and present...the big vehicle feeling both agile and stable up to a point. When pushed harder, the Challenger does begin to show its weight and wallows a bit... They also tuned the shocks for some lift-throttle attitude change, because understeer is pronounced, and the wheel, which feels ship-large in the hands, takes a lot of angle to crank into an apex. We didn't like that in 1970, and we still...
Review: Dodge Challenger SRT-8
2008-05-01 03:27:00
Review: Dodge Challenger SRT-8 There is no mistaking the new Challenger SRT-8 for anything else. Just a brief glance and you know you?re looking at one. Chrysler has done a great job of bringing the look of the car to the 21st century. The side view shows lines that are shared with the famed version from the early ?70s (I think it?s better for everyone involved if we choose to forget the version from Mitsubishi that sold until the ?80s). Backstory While the SE and R/T versions of the Challenger will bow in for the 2009 model year, the ?08 is only available in a five-speed auto equipped SRT-8 model that packs the potent 6.1-liter Hemi (425 horsepower at 6200 rpm with a peak torque of 420 pound feet at 4800 rpm). This works out to about 70 horsepower/liter, impressive in the ?70s, but falling behind the current benchmarks of today. This is probably because the engine uses some serious old-school technology: two pushrod actuated valves per cylinder that use hydraulic lif...
