Man totally get the vanishing point painted Chally!
Then you could tie an austrailian chick to your hood just like on the movie Deathproof

yeah...kinda confuzzling, eh? the 2008s are SRT models, there are some out....i forgot to mention that tehy were 08s...but in 09, there will be more models, colors, options, etc. WOOHOO, plus the 08s are suffering from dealer mark-up of close to 10K, kinda like the shelby mustangs were when they first came out, plus might as well get a 2nd or 3rd year model, maybe all the lil bugs can be worked out by then

Interestingly, I saw an 09 (yes I typed that right) out on the road yesterday up near Toledo, Ohio. It was bright red and did not have a hood stripe....unless someone repainted a brand new car, it would have had to be an 09. Funny too, I have a buddy who preordered an 08 SRT and is still waiting on it!!!

the videos on dodge.com are SWEET...exhaust is awesome, looks like they're shooting vanishing point with different colored challengers with the driving they do...also have great stunts with jumps, etc. it says on the site that pricing is not yet available. i really wanna see how the 6 will perform and how the price will be on each model. if the se v6 is about the same price as a charger around 23K and the hemi is around 30K, and the srt is around 40K or so, that would be great. i'm sure i'll have to wait awhile, though, cuz dealers will be marking up prices, and my stang lost 3K in value over a couple months (with hardly any miles on it) simply because of gas prices...eck...maybe, they'll suffer like the hemi chargers are and a year old one with 15K miles on it will be 2/3rds price

would be great to have another mopar. the mustang world is full of 5th grade mentality, and i'm gettin tired of it

yeah, the vids on dodge.com are out in the open, on country roads, etc. no vids, but i've seen pics of a guy on the mustang forum site trying to keep up with an 08 srt, along with pics on the side of the road of the 2 cars together...i am a CAR enthusiast, and i can't wait til the camaro gets out so they can line up all 3 and get some great pics. i've been reading on the camaro, and that thing will be a beast, but the rear end is FUGLY

When I was stationed at Ft. Rucker, I woke up with a woman whose face as well as her rear end was FUGLY. Sobered me up just like that. ..

I just got one of my car mag,and they had a mustang and the new challenger and the Mustang smoked the challenger!I think the mustang was a Shelby GT 500. It was on the cover of Motor Trend.

idk 0-60 should be about the same around 4.9-5.0 and the gt500 is approx 300 lbs lighter and supercharged...i don't even wanna know what a supercharged challenger would do - actually, i do
