Default Goodbye old friend

Well I took the plunge today and also said goodbye to my trusty Dakota. I got a 2010 Challenger R/T Brilliant Black Pearl w/ six speed and track pack. The car of my dreams really that I've wanted since the concept was introduced. This is my mid-life crisis I guess. The car is just AWESOME! I will miss the Dak and it's utility but with the financing being offered I felt I had to do it now. They also gave me $2000 in Mopar Bucks to get some toys for it!

Where's Ables with that "this thread is pointless with out pictures" thing...

I don't know. Just personal opinion, but the Challengers just don't do it for me. The Mustang and Camaro are light years ahead of it in just about every department... I personally like the Mustangs the best but hey I will say I'm really happy you bought a Challenger and not a WRX or EVO or some other box of rice.

Congrats on the new car, enjoy it. Has it got a pistol grip shifter? I always thought those were really cool.

the challenger and camero are both hot cars. not sure which performs better but the dodge is just meaner looking. and the mustang is now a total chick car. around me it seems that way. i'm just glad american makers are getting away from that ricer fast and furious style.

Im just saying that with out pictures it's pretty much pointless to tell us he got something because anyone can say anything. Especially over the internet.

So I was saying that I could come on the forum tomorrow and tell everyone I have r/t and no one would know if it's true or not.

Although now in days even with pictures it could be all made up I guess.

Well, 400+ horse power out of a factory 5.0L in the new mustangs (Can't wait for the 2012 BOSS Mustangs) is total chick car.
