Default SAW ONE ON THE ROAD!!!!

Today, Saturday 3/8/08 around 3:00 PM, On M14 west of Detroit between US 23 and I 275, eastbound.

Manufacturer plates, drab dark olive green Challenger. No name plates, no engine badging on hood, "carbon black look" hood black out.

Don't care for it in this color, maybe intentiionally drab. Maybe an 09 pre production buck???

Of all times to not have camera, couldn't wait to get home and post!!, Benefit of living in metro Detroit.

That is why exactly I carry a camera in the car at all times.

I'm jealous you're at least seeing them on the road. Saw another post on DodgeForum saying '09's may have Shaker for R/T's...hopefully SRT's too. Get anxious for that 6 spd arrival!!

It definitely wasn't black??? Olive green seems like a strange choice. I can't even think of another car currently made that comes in olive green.

I know what color your talking about (i think) It was posted on this website while back. Jalopink had a pic of it with a red challenger RT at the roush station. The picture is BMP so it wont upload, but here's a link:

http://jalopnik.com/351545/2008-dodg...-the-cool-kids

If so, I think its the color that the first on left on the color cube for the challenger on Dodge.com.

Edit,
Never mind, I was able to get it. But I left the link.

They might be using an variant of the Jeep Green Metallic.
