I like the R/T wheels better

Same here, Joey. I also like the lack of carbon striping, which in my opinion detracts from the car's appearance. Also, it doesn't appear to have the rear spoiler, which means I wouldn't have to bother getting it removed. I'm DEFINITELY going for an R/T.
They seem to be the same SRT8 wheel for the Charger

I've been thinking about these R/T pictures... It looks to be like the aesthetic difference between the SRT and R/T are the rims and hood decals. From what I can tell in the pictures the chrome filler door is still there as well as the front air dam. I can't really tell if the spoiler is there or not...

So this leads me to my next questions. What are the SXT's going to look like? rims are obvious but what else. No chrome filler door? I know dodge has a history of putting crappy gray plastic trim on SXT models, but I can't see where they could do that on this car. Not without utterly destroying the look.

I'm not going to be getting an SXT, but the pictures got me thinking...

My guess

regular fuel door
No spoiler
No chin spoiler or side skirts
single exhaust
cloth seats

I would imagine that the R/T is going to have cloth seats.

I wonder if they might go with a plain hood, no scoops or anything...

I am also sure you will lose all of the fancy electronics as well.

Maybe black plastic side mirrors, no fog lights, more traditional front seats, no 60/40 folding rear seat... along with ideas mentioned above.

I'm sure leather seats will be optional on the R/T at least. They'll be different seats though I think. Don't know why they wouldn't offer leather as an option on the V6 either.

I was think along the same lines as justin about the cloth seats. Good point about the hood.

i got a brochure for the 08 chargers from dodge and they showed a daytona in that new blue color. I know there was an auction for a blue challenger but does anyone know if that was the only one or will they hit the show room in blue like the daytona's???
