The engine I would love to see them put in the Challenger is the 6.4L 500HP engine. With a 6 speed that would be a car that is hard to keep on the road. Hate to hear about many early deaths such that has happened to the Viper.

I keep a spare Saturn in my trunk, in case I need the secondary gas tank.. or a ride to a service station.

Saturns are pretty beastly, though. A few mods here and there and you'll be cracking 16s before you know it :p .

The 425hp motor already exists in current vehicles, I think the biggest question will be if it will be an add on option to a base Challenger or whether it will be proprietary to an SRT version, which would also tack on the cost of upgraded suspension and all styling, among other things. It could only be $3000 more if it doesn't require getting a special performance version. This is what made musclecars popular in the first place, I wish Ford would do the same with the Mustang. GT originally just got you styling upgrades, now it is the only thing with a V8 and starts around 6 grand higher than a V6. I'd also like to see a motor more upgrade friendly, like the older 5.0s were. Modular is an excellent motor, it's just really expensive and time consuming to do a lot of modifications to. Of course, there's this limiting factor referred to as the EPA...*sigh*

I could probably buy up to about $35K...but anything over that, is going to have to really excite me.

by JASON96R » Fri Jan 27, 2006 5:21 pm

Yeah, $3000 more will get you 425HP V8 w/6 speed over 250HP V6 in my dreams I think maybe they should be more realistic, but who knows maybe that is the plan. BTW, rumors are that the car with V6 will start at $28,000.

"Where is the option for "This car looks like it has down syndrome, and looks like all other cars on the market"?"

Which other cars? I haven't seen them, maybe I'll check them out as well ;) Good to see muscle coming back to wail on the tuner wussmobiles. Better than getting a boner over a Civic SI :scorp:
