I hated the 1987 fox body GT when it first came out but after while I came to really like the change. The 2015 is different but its not a bad looking car and yes it will take some getting use to but I m starting to really like it.... I think that I would like a black one with a carbon fiber wind splitter and a really nice rear wing and some really nice rims.. Maybe I will get me a 2016..

To be honest with you, that's about the only aspect I don't like about the Challenger as it's just too bulky and porky looking for my liking but from just a styling point of view Dodge most definitely nailed the Challenger's retro styling from the original 70-74 models without a doubt..
But then again, Dodge didn't have much to work with back in 2008 either, as Daimler kept a tight noose around the designers necks and were therefore forced to design the Challenger off their existing LX sedan platform in order to stay within budget..
However I do agree that whenever you see a Challenger coming towards you ! you know exactly what it is, that's for d@mn sure

^^^ That sure generated attention back in the day. I have liked ALL the Mustangs since day 1 except the 4 banger editions in the 70's. I don't like NAV screens but not much you can do about it. It's one of the reasons I have my 2014 model as I think it was the last one without a NAV screen.
Comments on the Challenger too I see. I really like mine. A nice pair to own along with my 25 year old Pontiac.
