"There were several goals with this car. It had to be very inexpensive to dowe had a strict budget and a strict timeline. It had to be a complete runner when it was done. And I wanted it to be a show car with showroom quality," McCarthy…
"A significant rule that governed the project was feasibility," LeVere said. "So there were no changes made to the body-in-white."
"We didn't want to take it up into the Viper ACR spectrum, in regard to ride and handling," LeVere said. "But we wanted to make it more of a car you could drive every day."
McCarthy admitted to at least "thinking" about a business plan for production. "I talked with the assembly-plant folks," he said, smiling.
Also, the car was a big hit at the June ride-and-drive event for Chrysler's senior officers. "We kept it off the official list, so no one knew it was coming. It made quite a splash.

Ok I'm going to respond like some of the bloggers wrote we should be. Mindless people who can care less about gas mileage. Allright... I'm all for the SRT-10 Challenger, sign me up.

RE: Challenger SRT10: Get Out the Decoder Rings
I doubt there would ever be an SRT10 car again. I think the SRT10 label is done ...
'
"Dodge" isn't going to be marketing v10 coupes TRUST ME , they are all about to tank and if they get bailed out it will be so they can make small fuel effiecnt cars. Not V-10 coupes that aren't even selling now. (Truth sorry).
To THIS DATE , i've seen 4.

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it!!!! although I would have to change that splitter. To me it looks a bit hokey in front like that. I know htey say its needed for more downforce but I really dont think I could find any place around here flat or long enough to have to worry about that.

Your chances of seeing a V-10 Challenger are about as good as seeing Dodge offering a Challenger Convertible…oh wait, there’s not going to be a Challenger Convertible, so do any of you really think Dodge will make a Challenger with an even more limited interest group….I don’t think so…
If anyone really wants a V-10, buy yourself a new Viper....I hear they are dealing on them....
