not very original of them, putting that airborne pic out on the heels of the Bullitt pics.

It would have been more interesting had they done that with a new black Charger.

that's certainly the impression, but how stupid of them

"Here is our new 6.2L Hemi powered 425hp SRT8 Challenger to take on the wee 4.6L 3v SOHC 315hp Mustang Bullitt . We can jump too. "

BK does the same with Mickey D's.

The one negative the Challanger has is the absence of a manual transmission.

Haha, if you look on allmopar.com you can see the stats... not impressive. There are many gts (including the bullitt) that is matching or bettering those 1/4/0-60 times with MUCH better gas mileage... It won't last long unless it sheds some weight.

The Challenger concept had a dream interior but the production version seems as it has been short changed a bit.
Ford was smart in not introducing a Bullitt concept.

I think they should try for a shadow under the car in the next photoshop.

For sure. The whinging about the Bullitt was enough without there having been a concept to add to it.

I will say though, of all Chrysler's new RWD cars, the Challenger is the most appealing.
I won't be buying one though
