New Challenger Gets Old School Look
2009-01-18 17:21:00 The Dodge Challenger has become a huge hit with MOPAR lovers in the short time it has been on the market. What is even better is that Dodge has decided to design a Challenger package that is a straight throw-back to the muscle car days and unleash it on the unsuspecting pavement.
Cruising The Oregon Coast In A 2009 Challenger R/T
2008-11-24 21:59:00 Everyone who's driven our 5.7 L hemi Challenger agrees that this car is dying to be out on the open road—with its girth, its power, and its interior visibility issues, this Mopar just isn't very happy in the city. Dugging around in second gear at 30 mph is torture—this car just wan
Drag Race: Chrysler EV versus Dodge Challenger
2008-11-17 13:36:00 This new video illustrates an important point we've made on this blog about how future performance vehicles *must* change technologies - but *can* still increase performance and improve dynamics. The future is not at all dark for driving enthusiasts! The video has the 1st-gen prototype of a Chrysler Corp electric vehicle, against an old-school and very traditional performance car. In a drag race held by the Los Angeles Times, the EV won. The Challenger weighs well over 4000 pounds, and the EV is closer to a thousand less. The EV is a pre-production mule based on an adapted Lotus gasoline-engine product that isn't sold in this country. The 1st-gen Chrysler electronics will certainly improve before production and are ultimately limited by battery technology as with other electric vehicles. Battery technology is certainly the #1 investment area in automotive research these days. Chrysler's strategy to show off it's three electric vehicles at this point in time is...

2009 Dodge Challenger: Which Model and Color Would You Choose?
2008-09-28 23:01:00 What do you think, if you had the money, which model and color would you purchase? The V-6 engine, the 5.7L HEMI or what could be the highly collectable 6.1L HEMI. The colors are, black, TorRed or Silver.Personally after watching both videos and the SPEED Test Drive of this car, if I were in the market to purchase one of these today, I would buy a 2009 Dodge Challenger, equiped with the 5.7L HEMI, exterior color of Black and a dark Interior, why??? You buy it for the HEMI and name, but I still am going to drive it regularly and in order to do that, it would be on regular fuel and decent fuel economy, I want the balance between Horsepower and Fuel Economy.)Before you choose, here are a couple of videos:The first one is a preview of this past weekend's SPEED Test Drive of the 2008-2009 Dodge Challenger SRT-8, the show was very interesting to watch, Jay Leno drove his own 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT, the first edition, number 4, Tommy Kendal drove two 2009 Dodge Challengers SRT-8, nice ...

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 o
2008-06-04 23:02:00 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.
