What about the camaro? which was okayed before the challenger.

Would you still buy the Challenger if the TransAm, Mercury Eliminator, GTO, or Barracuda or concept were introduced?
If no, which would you buy and why?

RE: Shifting gears to another car
If the Challenger was not going to come out, how many of you would have considered the Firepower which is still
on the drawing board? Kinda of like a gentlemans version of the Viper and I think uses the same platform.

Even if the Cuda were produced, I'd still probably buy the Challenger -- unless there was a SIGNIFICANT difference in price for what is essentially the same car. I've already bought a new Challenger shirt from the Dodge web site. It's bad enough having to wear it while driving my 2000 Mustang now. It needs to be surrounded by the proper vehicle.
By the way: I still intend to eliminate the modern Challenger badge if the production cars come equipped the way the concept model is. The word Challenger in script on the front fenders looks much better.

You were right Jeremiah 29:11 thank you for the correction
. On a side note there is a chance that the another GTO will be built on the new camaro platform.

I agree 100% may even move the r/t badge from the grill as well

Actually, Joey, the R/T on the grille is OK -- the 1970 model carried one next to the Challenger logo on the left side of the grille. There also was one on each fender below the Challenger logo and another one next to yet another Challenger logo in the lower right-hand corner of the trunk lid. Unless you happen to have all the badges on hand (including the original Chrysler Corp. insignias for the bottoms of the front fenders and the original Dodge lettering for the hood) as I do, you'll find that outfitting a new Challenger in "proper" insignia is going to be a pricey project. I've seen the R/T insignia alone priced from $45 to $85 each. Of course, this is a perfect world and Dr. Z himself undoubtedly is reading each of these posts and thinking, "I can save all of my old-school American friends a boatload of money by outfitting the new Challenger properly! Yes, I'll do it! After all, these are the people the Challenger is being resurrected for! Hans, Werner! Quickly! Start melting down the block-letter Challenger insignias and reforming them in script lettering!"

I really don't care either way about the lettering. I would go with the less expensive approach.
