Default RE: 2008 Challenger - Options Pricing and Complete List of Features


ORIGINAL: cncpt2prod!

I hope they put out a 6.1L manual !! I would much rather wait for the manual, than buy an automatic from this first run.
And I hope it's a real manual stick shift with a clutch!! 5 speed or 6 speed...I don't care,,,just give me that clutch!
Hello, new guy, first post.
I have been waiting with baited breath for the Challenger to start becoming a reality but I dont want a auto. I worked in the plant where this tranny was made and I know for a fact that the standard hemi was chip controled in the 300 so not to rip the guts out of this tranny. While it is a fine tranny, a german tranny. The fact it was "detuned" somewhat for the 300 standard hemi and I presume they did the same for the 300SRT. I do appreciate the traction control aspect of this tranny for launching but I want a six speed manual.
Im curious if anyone in the know can elaborate.
