Default RE: New Challenger video


ORIGINAL: Yankee

I'm sorry, I'm not quite getting this... so this was actually a Charger test that was really a Challenger underneath... right? Isn't that what a Challenger is anyway?

These guys are ooing and aahing over the Challenger, but then they're test driving Chargers... and we're supposed to believe that they weren't really Chargers but Challengers disguised as Chargers... is that it? [sm=wtf.gif]

The Challenger supposedly has a 4" shorter wheelbase than a Charger... doesn't it? Those sure looked like stock Chargers to me in that video. I realize it's early in the morning... but for the life of me I'm not getting what this is supposed to be.

Someone with more intelligence than me please set me straight on this before I officially raise the [sm=bs.gif] flag...
I'm confused with this as well. The seats you can tell are actually Challenger seats. I didn't get a good enough look at the dash to determine it. I don't know if you could get a Charger shell to fit on a Challenger platform, but I honestly don't understand why they didn't just let them drive a Challenger that looked like a Challenger. I guess they are still being careful about letting GM and Ford see too much. I think that they need to just give up on that and just show it for crying out loud.
