Dodge Challenger

Sometime back, about two months ago I posted for feedback on the new car I ordered for my wife.
Well after weather delays here in Texas we finally picked it up on Friday.

What a rocket, and to my delight seems to be a great road car. My wife loves it!!

Doesn't want me driving it.
The Hemi has such a great rumble and the six speed trannie maybe one of the best.

of all the retro 60's reincarnations...the dodge challenger is probably the best of the bunch.

I don't know, watching the Chevy Z28 tear-up the Nuremberg ring and beat the time for the 911, I still think I'd rather have it, a Vette or the Shelby Mustang on a street course, but Mopar's do have great brute force.

Two totally different purpose built cars.

Here is the new Z28 testing. Must have been a Mustang driver.

I like the older one cause that driver actually completed the lap.

Not sure what your point is, the OP said the Dodge was a "great road car", so that's why I made the post.
