Default Challenger SE & R/T packages announced!


Check it out. Sounds like R/T is very healthy and has 6 spd option as well as limited slip and EPS shut off on manuals...COOL

nice to see allpar watermarking photos that they have nothing to do with...

i cannot find any official word on this information. perhaps more safe assumptions claimed as fact by the good people at allpar?

Makes me wonder when the 6.1 Hemi will get a redesign. Would be nice to find another MPG and another 25-50HP.

I am glad I have decided to keep my Hemi Ram until the 10 model year, give them more time, whether it is a better 6.1 Challenger or a Hybrid Ram.

They did it right with offering an manual tranny for the R/T and SRT8

They need to offer the 4.0 l 6 with a 5 or 6 speed manual and get 30 mpg hiway for 25,000 or less than they will sell enough to make money on them . jmo.

I actually like the slight changes they made to the interior for the Challenger...I dont know what it is exactly, but I think it looks great in this car (except that steering wheel, something "sporty" and retro please Dodge??).

If they can keep this thing priced right (both SE and R/T), Dodge may actually have a descent seller on its hands. I still cant believe the (estimated) $10,000 price difference for not much extra performance though...
