Re: You wont believe the reaction when your Challenger Arrives

Around here there is tons of vettes I get people always checking out my c5 the drool is still all over the hood,lol.
The ladies love the vette!
However:
The challenger will always have more impact as it represents Freedom of the soul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its a bad boys ride!!!!

I'm falling hard for this Challenger like its a high school crush Cuda340 you'll be so happy with the new Challenger it will fill the void brother!
I have never had a car affect me like this and I think it the same for many here!
41 k vette would be stripped and not worth owning gotta option those cars out to get the real deal.
You'll be at 55k plus easily and beyond for a vette worth owning.
My c5 coupe is loaded and its the best bang for the buck out there especially used when you find the cherry out there !

Funny though the c6 doesn't do a thing for me The in my opinion they ruined the car when they tried to make it look like a viper.
Gm seems to be in real trouble when it comes to heritage!

I tried to explain that while Corvettes are great cars, I am MOPAR to the core and the Challenger is a replacement for my 1971 'Cuda. Also, around my way, Corvette's are so common that they no longer turn heads.

That will not happen with my Hemi-Orange Challenger SRT!

Re: You wont believe the reaction when your Challenger Arrives

As far as reactions go, It has been crazy. I just got back from a car show and it drew a solid crowd the entire show. It is the most noticed car I have ever drivin by a factor of 10!!! I had a shelby gt500 and there is no comparison as far as the interest level. Especially guys on motorcycles for some reason.

Haha, Wonton, I'm ordering the same car, with TrakPak, and 18's. I think 20's will add more weight than I want to the car. :P

Re: You wont believe the reaction when your Challenger Arrives

In '06 i think, Chrysler said somewhere that the coupe market was dead. Maybe since the Mustang and record auction results of their past vehicles that they have reconsidered?! We'll see what the reaction is in the North West in a couple of weeks. Still in D status...

just checked w/local dodge dealer in Fresno, CA to see if they had a SRT-8 on the showroom floor. not just yet although they said all allocated units are already sold. i suspect they will be just as popular in the west as they are in the east.
