RE: Anything you DON'T like about the new Challenger
What I don't like is the following:
1. the W5A580 5-speed being the automatic choice. I don't like foreign brand technology being used on a Chrysler product no matter whether that technology comes from Mercedes, Mitsubishi, or Hyundai. Plus it isn't cheap to build nor a very efficient design.
2. The LY platform being a modified MB E-class platform. Same reason as the automatic also because it makes it more expensive to produce and weighs a lot more as well.
3. 20 inch tires. It looks like it has been "pimped out" like that. I prefer Ralley Wheels no larger than 18 inches.
4. (If it is offered) 3.5L 4 valve per cylinder SOHC V6 as the base engine. Even though I like this engine and swear by it, a V6 version of the 5.7L Hemi is more appropriate for this class. This is supposed to be a heritage muscle car, not a high tech line. Heavier models are better fitted with OHV engines due to their torque characteristics are better suited for the weight.
Beyond that, I love it just the way it is.
