    Congrats on the new ride, boy am I late to the party. Are you going for a black rear spoiler like an SRT or a body color one like an R/T?
    I'm sure your going to get a black one, should look awesome.

    Funny you should ask. I was thinking of a compromise between the two. Body color, but the part in the back the faces the guy behind me would be painted black. I just LOVE how well the black looks surrounding the tail lights. I don't want to mess that up. This will test my painting ability.   :scared:   :scared:   :scared:

    Looks good  :2thumbs:

    I went out and checked a new one out for the lady and thought the V6 filled the engine bay up quite nice and for $24K  :grinyes:

    I also thought the roll down window when you open the door was neat. Heard about it but never seen it before unitl now.

    Get a flip top gas cap http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories___08-09-Dodge-Challenger-Chrome-Gas-Door-NEW-OEM_W0QQitemZ350106688267QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item350106688267&_trkparms=72%3A543%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245

    Or T-handle shifter http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories___DODGE-CHALLENGER-MOPAR-CHROME-SHIFT-KNOB-08-09_W0QQitemZ120315559334QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120315559334&_trkparms=72%3A543%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245



    I was open to the chrome flip-top gas cap until I put my strobe stripes on. I don't want to mess that up.

    I have my eye on that T-handle shifter. It's a little costly, but I paid more than that for the pistol grip shifter in my 70.   :lol:

    Mike, have the Eagles made their way out of those thirteen speakers yet???

     :cheers:

    Russ,


      You know me and my tunes.   :ylsuper:  There are 3 speakers in the dash. At least 2 in the doors. I haven't crawled into the back seat yet to see what is there yet.  However... "Life in the fast lane" is popular right now.   :grinyes:

    The Eagles?  :clueless: They should be mounted on your rims! :smilielol:

    Try Highway Star - Deep Purple and put your foot into it. A guaranteed speeding ticket! :2thumbs:

    Wow Mike, nice ride. I was looking at the blue R/T at Tate a few days ago. A little to pricey for me though.

    Looks even better with the stipes.  :thumbsup:

    Dave,

      I couldn't find much around the Beltway here, but I bought this down at Waldorf Dodge. They had 13 in stock. At least one of every color. The high-volume dealers get them first.  :grinyes: You might want to check them out if you are serious.
