General Challenger DiscussionThis section contains general discussion about the Dodge Challenger. If it does not fit into a more specific area, it probably belongs in here. (Dodge Challenger General Discussion)
The attached photos were posted this week of PCP Challengers and other colors. If you look closely you can see the southern fence line (distinct Z-shaped offset) and the yellow light pole bases matching the car carrier picture.
The imagery is current 2010. Google maps always copyrights their imagery photos for the year the imagery was taken. The street view from N Park Dr and from Torbram Rd is obscured due to the landscape having large berms hiding the entire lot from the roadway.
Another piece of the puzzle for your entertainment.

Gah! I wonder which one is mine, it should be a PCP RT classic with a sunroof. I know it was shipped off for stripes some time today, which makes sense, considering I see a lot of the RT classics with no stripes, either white or black.
The picture is from last year if you look close you will see some Hemi Orange cars along with some B-5 cars not sure when exactly but it was taken on a Sunday and in the summer and if you do street view in froNT of the factory you will see 2 Challengers sitting out front a HO SRT and a black R/T.

I believe it is more recent, because of the snow on the ground, and the PCP challengers in the shot. There weren't any built until late Dec of 2009, if any, the color wasn't announced until October, and concept photos were used to depict the PCP challengers almost into 2010.
I don't think there are any Hemi Orange Challengers in that shot, but are TorRed Challengers along with Inferno Red Challengers. There are also Chargers mixed into the bunch. I see no B-5 blue cars at all.

The 2 pictures were taken on Monday but the link to the aerial shot is from last summer that is where the HO and B-5 cars are.

Sorry about that, didn't realize there was another picture available, I was just looking at the 2 that were shown.
Interesting comments regarding the satellite shot. Only Brampton Builder has been to that factory more times than me so, I'll add my observations. My best guess is that the pic was taken late in May or perhaps slightly later. Here's why. There is no snow on the ground. The grass is green. The sunlight is strong, summer sunlight which is impossible during winter. There are still some Hemi Orange cars present. There are plenty of B5 Blue present but not that massive B5 group that came later. The first ever B5 car (an SRT8) was born Mar 28th BTW. Most compelling of all is that there is new building being built on the corner across from the NW corner of the plant. The satellite pic shows bare, untouched ground where the building is now. Mekanic asked what part of the pic is Chrysler. See the pic below. The plant is circled in yellow. Hope that helps.
