Engine ID
Was thinking, with how well DCX has done the retro bit on the Challenger, and the hood being a "signature" element, I'm surprised they are now using raised lettering (chrome plastic) to spell out "6.1 Hemi". I realize the 6.1 hemi desination is part of the current graphic, but no Challengers that I can think of ever had engine displacements displayed in graphics on the hood?
They were on billboards for the 'cuda and the R/T and 340 six pak T/A designations, but the engine cues were always in metal lettering "340 four barrell", "426 Hemi", "383 four barrell" and "440 Sixpack", etc.
I know...just too old school...

I can't imagine that would cause the price to be that much higher. I think it would be nice to list it. If they can list 3.5L on the Charger, then why not list 6.1L on the hood?

RE: Engine ID
This is an old post and nice to see the "production version" now has the "6.1 Hemi" emblems!
