Arrow Yes its another "newbie" checking in!

Hello you all.
My name is Doozle and I'm the very proud new owner of a 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8. This is my very first Mopar product, ur vehicle having been a G.M. fan ever since I received my drivers license from the DMV. I'm glad to be here but I still can't believe that Chrysler Corp saw fit to bring back such a "ausome" car such as the Dodge Challenger to begin with. With all that's going on in the world, a US recession, Toyota Prius's being the car of choice, new leadership in D.C., G.M. now standing for "Government Motors", etc. I still have to pinch myself that a car such as the Challenger actually got built and past the corporate "bean counters". This car is truly "Retro" done right. Trust me folks this isn't just a good thing, its a great thing.
I special ordered my Challenger from Helfman Dodge in Houston, TX. This dealership is a five star dealership which puts them in a class above many other "Dodge" dealerships. The only option I didn't go for was the sunroof. My car is also "Torred Red" in color. I went kind of wild at the "candy Store", that's where the dealership starts making back all that money you successfully negotiated to begin with. I went for the following items;
1) Mopar performance air intake system.
2) Borla cat-back factory exhaust system.
3) Carbon fiber trim treatment for the center console, etc.
4) Back up radar sensors (what can I say they work).
If anyone of you all is still on the fence as to what to do, I'd advise you to decide as soon as possible because its just a matter of time before the powers that be (transportation Gods) will close this automotive bliss of a loop hole for good. I can't believe the Challenger is going on 3 years so far.
Well that's about it for now. Please feel free to comment or ask questions. I do look forward to asking lots of questions and receiving lots of answers as well.

Happy Motoring!
Doozle.

Doozle, welcome to the forum and congrats on your SRT. Actully the car was introduced in 2006 and came out in 2008 before the recession.

I grew up in Houston but moved away 13 years ago but I am still a Texas. Keep safe in that Houston traffice.

Ride that Challenger Passion!
