Are you sure about all '09s having the spoiler? Cause I don't want a friggin spoiler on my R/T. I'm pretty sure I heard the gas cap is on the left side of the car too

I think that the spoiler will be standard on the R/T and SRT.

The V6 will not have a racing gas cap.

Damn Roost! Chill man!

If you had a job where you had access to the Challenger and other concept cars would you risk it by posting pictures?

I agree, I hope it is not a must have.

Re: Production Challenger Spotted today. Naked!

No I probably wouldn't, but I also wouldnt be giving the ZZZZZZZ's because i was so jaded either. Kind of condecending in my opinion. While we drool over blurry cell-phone pics, he seems to relish letting us know he knows all. Ok, so dont post pics, why not give us a hint regarding some questions we have? We sit here dissecting these photos and he could simply say "nope, gas cap left side" "Seat belt is so and so" "Functional slats in teh hood" etc etc. Its not like his shop is the only people in the country who have seen the so I dont see how he could get caught...

Anyway...

I have to agree. ResumeSpeed gives us little tidbits of info now and then. Hell, the car's going to be on public display in 3 weeks or so. So what's the big deal about a little info?

at the risk of being labelled a mediator..
You're both right. It would be crazy to risk your job by releasing some company info 3 weeks or so before it was coming out anyway. Then again if someone wants to let us Canadians in on what our allotment, options, colors or pricing will be I won't stop them!!

On the other hand, its totally without class to flaunt the fact that they know something but can't tell. Reminds me of kids in the playground taunting each other cause they know a secret. Either spill some beans or stop rubbing it in people's faces that you've got beans and they dont. I'm ok with either one.
( but would still prefer some Canadian beans about this car!! )

thats my 2cents

Re: Production Challenger Spotted today. Naked!

I read the comment a little more "fun" than condescending. Sure, it's a little jab to those of us who don't have intimate contact with this car, but he says he can't wait until February ... just like the rest of us.

I get the impression that champcaracing is excited to see these cars produced and on the road-- maybe even with a little more pride since he's a little more involved.

If he can't say anything specific about it, he can't say anything specific.

But I sure can - specifically, it looks AWESOME to me! Nice to see it without the camo, even if it's not a series of super detailed shots. It's that much more "real," and that much closer to having a slew of brothers out there on the road with it. Exciting!
