ORIGINAL: Nero

The shifter that they came up with for this car. I've commented on this before but you asked what I don't like. The trainy is also a poor choice.
Ya, the shifter needs to be angled like the old style pistol grip. And what tranny is a poor design, Viper 6spd?

I'm going to step out on a limb here and say that anyone who has the old Hemi 4-speed will see the 6-speed as a vast improvement. I don't know what you would use to replace the Viper 6-speed. I know that it will hold up to alot of horsepower, in excess of 1000 hp. So out of interest, what manual trans that we have today would be a better choice. Does Dodge have a better trans out there? Don't all the car co. use trans made by known co. with the bellhousing bolt pattern set up for said engine. Is the viper trans a tremec? I'm not really up to date on the Viper drivetrain.

Make mine with a 2007 Charger SRT8 style rear spoiler,

and the 1973 Challenger rectangular taillight configuration to match the rectangular chrome exhaust tips.

I'd also like the "fender louvres/stripes" like on the old Challenger's.

Keep the rest of the car like the prototype.....
Did I mention, paint it Black Pearlcoat Metallic with Charcoal Metallic stripes?
Yeah....that's what I'd like.
