New Challenger

Post by Vaio » Thu Feb 07, 2008 5:34 pm

Yeah so it's big and American but you have to admit it looks pretty good, even if it would kill you the first corner you attempted to take. 8)

It's the new Challenger (by Dodge of course) announced today or yesterday, whatever, but yeah here we are.

Thoughts?

A Mercedes owner knows they made the wrong decision when their car rusts like a Lancia.

A BMW owner knows they made the wrong decision when their car is more common than a Mondeo.

An Audi owner knows they made the right decicision when they fly by the Mercedes and BMW owners.

Sorry mate. What the yanks bring to making cars is equivalent to what Turkey bring to the eurovision song contest IMO.

JonnyX I've got a feeling your opinion will outlive the people who like these cars (like me). I can sort of see myself going "what was I thinking" about 20 years down the line, ie, the cars do look a bit over the top. Still cool as though :).

I saw the new Camaro, and my first thought was that the air intake on the front makes it look like KITT.

This time, I kept the shine on the bodywork, and made the lights look a lot better.
