New Challenger---Driving impressions?
« on: December 27, 2005 - 06:40:15 PM »
 We have seen the photos of the possible new Challenger.  :picture:  I was wondering if any of you have read or heard of any "leaks" concerning driving impressions of the car?   :ylsuper:  It seems like D-C has the opportunity to hit a grand slam with this car. But it must look similar to what we have seen, be affordable, and drive like it should with all of these modern performance pieces.  :droolingbounce:  ...................Oldschool

I have herd a little about a new challenger and a new cuda. But all I herd were rumors and that was about 6 months ago. I herd the challenger has a good handling, hemi option, and several weird options like sparco seats, a Grant steering wheel that has challenger ingraved in the spokes and some american racing wheels strait from the factory but this might be false because I herd rumors so I dont know, Just the messenger.

It sure would be nice to see some close to original Rallye wheels.

My guess is that it will handle like the performance LX cars, with a shorter turning radious, and a little better accell/stopping times, due to the lighter weight.
