The Challenger will be getting some steep competition come January and that can only be good news for those of us looking to buy a Challenger at that time.
Yesterday, Bob Lutz (GM Vice Chairman) has revealed plans for a 2.0 liter turbocharged engine estimated to be around 260 hp.; a 350 hp. V6; and a 400 hp. V8 (L76 6.0 L).
In addition, 8 months after the release of the V6 and V8 Camaro, Chevy will offer a convertible model.
It has also been rumored that a Z28 model will be produced to top the Mustang GT500 and the Challenger SRT by late summer/early Fall of 2009. Supposedly, it will have a supercharged LS3 engine. This engine will produce massive amount of hp and torque- in non-supercharged form it already matches the SRT by producing 430 hp. and 424 lbs. torque.
Dodge better come out with that 6.4L pretty soon or we will be left in the dust!
How about a 6.4L supercharged 'Cuda!
