General DiscussionThis section contains general discussion about the new Dodge Challenger concept. If it does not fit into a more specific area, it probably belongs in here. (Dodge Challenger General Discussion)
I like the six-shooter style headlights as well, and also agree that the Dodge Ram head logo belongs on their line of trucks and not on the Challenger. IMO...the old school Dodge Triad logo would look much better.
Keep the Tail Light Bar EXACTLY the way it is on the concept! I think this is the coolest @ss on a vehicle I have seen in years!
Usually a car designer will design a wicked vehicle, looks good from every angle, then it just look like they threw together some crap in MSDraw for a tail end.... This one has Character, and more than anything, it looks mean, Sukka's got Ballz! Leave it alone!
By the way the Concept has some crazy Neon-Plazma something or another lighting it... Make it LED's and let'z get on with it!
Smokn~
This is SUCH A GREAT PICTURE! There's just something about seeing it in traffic (like a production vehicle) rather than up on a pedestal as a concept. Man I can't wait for these things to hit the streets.
I like the taillights the way they are. I also like the pics of the 72-74. I'm sure they could integrate them in the design if they wanted to. I'm guessing they'll stick to the concept version, though. Based on the overwhelming positive response they've received, I don't think they'll want to make any major changes on this baby.
Can't wait to hear the color selection... better not be lame.

A direct quote from Team SRT and why I love MOPAR all wrapped up in one: The 5.7l engine was designed to be a balance of cost weight and power. The SRT 6.1L engine was designed to kick ass.
OK, so IMHO the rear taillight is one of my favorite features of the new challenger, but apparently it is causing some stir as many people really don't like it. I think it really captures the essence of the classic 70's rear end shape with a very unique and original design. What is everybody's opinion? Also, I am wondering... what is it constructed of? Is it some sort of LED or fluorescent? Also, how will the turn signals work? Anybody know?
I love the tailights on the concepts!! I hope they go all the way across and light-up entirely through the complete lense on the production version. I definitely DO NOT Like the 72-74 rear lenses at all!! I also want to see the 6-shooter headlights,but for some reason I got a feeling they(dcx) might not have them. It would be way too cool if they did though!! DCX,please,...keep the tailights& the 6-shooters!!!!! The car definitely wouldn't be half as cool without them imo!
