Unfortunately, all this speculation about the 2010 Challenger likely is moot if the report is true that a V-6 option isn't going to be offered.
Wow. That's the first time I've heard the "no V6" rumor. With all due respect,
RoswellGrey, I don't buy it.
I did see this quote at autoblog:
Kicking Tires also reports that 2009 Challengers will be available with a 380-hp, 5.7L HEMI V8 sporting cylinder deactivation technology, which we may see at the New York Auto Show in late March. A base model with a V6, however, seems unlikely to appear from what we hear.
... But I take that to mean
"unlikely to appear at the NY Auto Show."
I agree with you that, while WE may not want to purchase a V6, the Challenger needs that option to generate enough sales to guarantee longevity.
ResumeSpeed will be here soon to straighten us out!
