Man I really like this ITALIAN designed new Challenger. I like the retro's more and more since new designs are an endless stream of dissapointments

I'm not a big fan of the retros, but this one looks good. Now they just need to bring back the late 60's Camero if it would look as good.

They are one step ahead of you. There is a Camaro Concept that looks pretty nice. It is modeled after the '68 and '69

Looks good, except the front end is too exaggerated.

Yeah I agree they need to smooth that out, subtle changes please

I agree too. They need to make the grill and headlights more retro and less Cadillac....

I love the Challenger not really the Camaro. But if either acctually make production I will seriously adding a Challenger to my fleet. The 1970 Challenger was the first car I fell in love with and it would be awesome to have one.

Im not really liking either, but hey who knows in person.

The pics look ok, but it isnt really that hot.

Personally the Camaro has a nicer style. imo

The forum Challengertalk.com is an online community dedicated to seeing the Challenger Concept make the short jump from auto show exhibit to showroom floor. The community has been lucky enough to be chosen by Chrysler to participate in some polls that allows the manufacturer to gauge which drivetrains and options might be most popular on the production version of the muscle car concept.

The first poll asks the forum’s members to choose which powertrain they would purchase, and the options range from an underwhelming 250-hp V6 with a 6-speed manual to a fire breathing 425-hp, V8 HEMI with a 6-speed manual. The latter is estimated to cost about $3000 above a base V6 manual, which we think is a steal.

What’s more interesting is a follow-up poll for those members who chose a powertrain with a manual tranny. It asks whether or not you would still purchase a Challenger if a 6-speed manual were not offered. About 55 percent say they would, but a not-to-be-ignored 45 percent say they wouldn’t.

Only registered forum members can vote in the polls.
