New interior color for 2012 Challengers
« on: February 21, 2012 - 07:22:35 PM »
Wanted to give my home team an update on a new color option for the 2012 Challengers.
Radar Red is now available for the 2012 Challenger R/T and SRT.
Love to hear your thoughts.

I like it :)  It's a lot better than the 392 interior.   I think it might be nice to have something on the dash (maybe the wheel wrap or the shifter) with the red...from the driver's perspective it's still mostly dark

yep, you nailed it dan!  say, is there an accent red on the exterior to match?  like a subtle red pinstripe to outline the silver stripes.  That little red accent color on the exterior, i always thought, was a nice touch: the red in the R/T badge, in the 'cuda hood engine callout, in the 72-74 cuda grill.  It just made a simple, but powerful statement.

Very nice, Dan!  :thumbsup:

Pardon my ignorance, but prior to this there was no red interior option?  Was it only a black or charcoal interior available?  :clueless:

I think the new red interior looks awesome!  I also agree I would prefer an all red dash vs. a black & red one, but at least it does have some red in it unlike what I've seen in some GM cars with non-black interiors.  It will be interesting to see what all exterior colors they'll let you order the red interiors with, there was some odd combinations in the 70's..

I am guessing: Black, red, white, silver, and charcoal.

I think the red interior looks great. It looked great on the First 2011 Charger R/T I saw at the dealer ride and drive events. Would love to see a photo of a Challenger with the Red interior and hoping it would be more than just the seats.
