Found this Article in AutoWeek. Looks like ford isn't the only company to get the retro theme right. You decide on the new Challenger ....

that's really hot. Honestly, with that kind of power, if it is not to heavy I would be REALLY tempted to trade my car in for one.

I still think somehow Chrysler will screw this one up.

It looks great, but with the 6.1L hemi, I'm sure it would be pricey. I think I readin my Popular Mechanics that the charger wit hthe 6.1 will be around $38K.

That is sweet. They even have a classic color on it. If that and the Mustang were for sale for similar prices and performance numbers, I'd get the Challenger.

it looks OK, but the mustang is just too sweet to give up. Remember Chevy had the 2007 camaro concept and scrapped it. It looked good too.

Remember, it's a concept. 99% of the time, the lines, wheels and features that make a car stand out, get axed for production. It looks good like that, but wait to see the lines when it gets produced.

That's nice but it's only a concept. Mustang still has years on the competition. Everyone is all talk about putting a retro-style car into production. Alls I've been seeing is concept this and concept that...Me and my stang aren't scared.

All depends on the price. I still think FORD messed up by only putting 300hp in the Mustang GT.
