I was at Detroit, and I was also told to circle next spring on my calander. I asked about the 6.4L and the DCX guy said this car with the 6.1L is just a "concept" but notice that it was "only wearing the R/T badge". When I asked if a 6.4L Challenger was in the future, he again said that it was just a "concept", but I might want to circle fall 2007 on my calander "for no reason". Might have been shining me on the whole time, but seemed like a really decent guy. Even went back behind the wall to get me a Challenger shirt.

Dodge finally entering the sports car market after a long absence. It is about time. Dodge has made amazing strides in family cars, trucks, and all that but for years mopar forgot its power. It has that back and now they finally have a car to go with the power. Charger name plate was basically wasted on a four door and an automatic. Bring the two doors and sticks. If Dodge wants to really make some real money on this beast they need to make it affordable like mustang pricing. They need all kinds of options and not hold out on the big power for a year. Thank you Dodge for giving us a dream but dreams only last forever as a reality. Make it happen.

Dodge is finally entering the pony car market again, yes. Sports car market...not really. There is a certain Dodge Viper that has been around for several years that has a practical cult following. And whether most people want to admit it or not, the SRT-4 (the first of the SRT vehicles) set the bar for performance of sport compact cars ever since it came out in 2003.
Whether or not you like the Charger being a 4 door car and an automatic, you can't deny the car is selling well, and making a good name for Dodge as a whole.
The big power will come as soon as they possibly can I'm sure. But it's going to take a little bit of time. If you are familiar with the SRT division, you know they can't do anything until they have a production version of the car to work with. I'm sure however, that they will have their hands on one of the earliest production versions so they can get started. And they have to do a little bit of work with the 392ci HEMI to get it to pass emissions as well.

....we don't care about emissions,do we?! Drop that 6.4 in there quick,the time is right,with the shelby being released and all.
I hope it's no longer than that. My money is being being saved and my apprehension for the car is growing by the second.My fiancee is jealous over the car because thats all I think about!
