RE: Things you would like to see added on the 2008 Challenger
While I know a lot of you would like to see the Challenger at a lower price, most of the Chrysler offerings
are priced in the $30K region. While I know most of these are luxury/sports types I can easily see the Challenger
first being offered in the high price/performance range to compete with the GT500. After a year I can see Chrysler
then offering a lower price version. I do not have a degree in marketing but I could see this strategy to take some
of the hoopla away from Mustang. See the Chrysler price comparisons below.
Of course, they are just my humble opinions.

What would I like to see added to the 2008 challenger? My name on the title of one!

ME TOO!
I LIKE THAT!
That is why I keep fighting & hoping that Dodge will do the Challenger right offering a budget base V8 version that is truly price competative with the base V8 Mustang-GT that us blue collar types out here can afford without taking out 2nd mortgages on our homes to buy one...

It would be nice to have that 392 made of aluminum instead of cast iron. That could be a weight savings of over 100 lbs.

While it's cool and exotic to have an aluminum engine and it does save weight, my biggest concern would it's longevity?

RE: Things you would like to see added on the 2008 Challenger
Something that just I just thougth of because of what my son went through with his 06 Mustang was he legally has to put license plates on the front of his car
in the State of Texas. You can't just have on the rear bumper alone.
Can you imagine ruining the front of a Challenger's bumper with license plates.
What I would really like to do is have a stainless steel plate with a Hemi 6.4L inscription be on the front? Anybody want to build them so we can buy them?
I am sure Chrysler would not like that but maybe they can do that. See below.

RE: Things you would like to see added on the 2008 Challenger
I am new to the forum so please bear with me.
6.4 L, 6 speed and guarantee me it will blow the Mustang GT off the road and into Mars orbit, I will be thrilled to death.
I have owned a GTO, Z28's and TransAm. Could never bring myself to own a Mustang - to me it was always a Pony trying to be a Stallion no matter what they did to it. With this Challenger concept, I am looking forward to a new muscle car. And if it means I have to pay more to get, then so be it. I am counting my change now :-)
