Cool photo man. I'm liking the spoiler on the rear. Reminds me of the 1970 Challenger T/A rear spoiler.

Looking very good. It looks almost identical with the concept. Is it the grainy quality of the photo or does that frontal picture show that the crossehair grill as been dropped? Either way is fine with me. Thanks for posting this, Paladin.

Looks like gutter strips on there. Anyone else seeing that?

I found another spy shot of a Challenger mule in CA. The photo gives a good look at the B pillar as well as a peek of the dash. It looks like the concept car's dash has be adopted for the production version. See:

I'm not diggin' the spoiler. The concept looks sharper without. Hopefully it will be optional. Regarding the gutter strips.... what are ya gonna do? They could cover up the roof attaching welds with something more expensive, I guess. And that "invisible" Bpillar isn't that invisible. Good job tucking the side panels under. Looks real good overall. Can't wait for the SRT8 pricing to come out.

Definitely don't care for that rear end. It looks very odd for some reason, squished together maybe. The rest of the car seems to stay fairly true to the concept though.

I just think the concept looks so clean and uncluttered. I would ditch the spoiler as well personally and as far as the gutter strips...ugh. Just saying the word gutter sounds awful and I would love to see them gone. I hate to apply bondo but what else can you do?
