The white Chally looks great - without a doubt.  But I'd have to pick you Cuda hands down!  Cool pics!!!

The new Challengers needs to be dropped SEVERELY!

Way too tall.  Too much tire/fender gap, too high-looking PERIOD!

Dang, just goes to show how much better the old iron is. :stirpot:

The new Challengers do like like they are AWD, because they sit so tall. :2cents:

The old challenger has much more styling points then the new ones ,I just  think that a pony car should be more compact. It needs to go on a diet, :popcorn:
