Re: What will the Dodge Challenger weigh?

Different strokes for different folks I guess....and the weight thing does not bother me at all....I'm living for today,not yesterday.
Touche', VP.

Even if it weighs 4160lbs in production trim it will STILL out-everthing any 1970 Challenger. I believe it will weigh less when they finally produce it, as the chief complaint of the current LX Series of cars is excessive weight. But, the reviewers STILL say they all carry their weight very well.

She'll still be a rather hefty GT, probably weighing in at @ 3700-3800lbs, but, who cares? She'll be on a 116" wheelbase, wide tracks, and (at least) 425hp to get under way - fast! Even my '02 M3 Cabriolet weighs in at 3700lbs and she is the gold standard for performance in her class. And, my '06 300c/SRT8, with all options, has no problem turning cars in my rear view mirror into so many blips...

It's all over but the waiting.
