That Shaker was awsome back when I saw it on a 70 hemi 'Cuda. I love those Nostrils on it!
That hood doesn't fit well if it's going to SEMA.

I wonder if they will make it with the way with the economy is and the solvency of Chrysler ? Not good business sense, but one can dream. I guess they need a new home for that motor once the Viper goes into retirement!

I'll take two. One to keep mint in the box, and one to play with.

Was wondering how long it would take for 'Viper guts' to be transplanted into a Challenger . . .

That's a good one.

Now if they stick the Vanquish V12 in a Mustang like that one shop did, that would be sick. Ford still owns the rights to that motor right?

That’s real nice. I knew once the Challenger was out for a while they would have better models available. If this comes out the SRT8 guys will be bummin.
Just think what that 10 cylinder would be like with an SC/Turbo on it.

Completely agree, shakers should not look like pig noses and that lower.....mess detracts from the otherwise **** good coolness of this car.

Ugh...I can't stand the sound of the V10 engines.....when I hear one, I want to make sure I have the trash out by the street, so I don't miss my pickup.
