New Dodge Challenger Performance Package Options

January 8th, 2010

New Performance Package

The Dodge Challenger has stepped up its performance appeal with a new appearance likely to brighten the spotlight on the modern day muscle machine.

The Challenger has been known to get a few gawkers as it rolls down city streets and reciprocates with the sound of its awe-inspiring V8.

To take it a step further, Dodge has just released a new offering in giving the Challenger an even more powerful stance with it’s already adequate appearance.

There’s no denying a need existed to offer a scoop, spoiler and other similar attributes. It brings a sense of supremacy to a design that already had our attention, and enhances this feeling of performance the Challenger represents.

The price tag for the exterior package is going for $1995. Its clearly worth it in this case as one gets a scoop, spoiler, some door trim guards and new graphics.

The interior provides a new Mopar shifter, T handle of course, new pedals and some carpet mats, and a new cover to protect it’s beauty from the elements. This is going to run you $945 for all these new treats in an automatic transmission model or $780 for the manual trans version.

Dodge is making the Challenger a true modern muscle car complete with all the traditions and makings of such. The feeling behind the wheel will now have the balance in appearance giving it’s design a fulfilled and completed prophesy.

The others in it’s class have been a serious challenge to the reincarnated legend and will be sure to make more known of it’s attention to the muscle car spirit. By bringing in all of these essential details, the Challenger is upping the bar for design and quality in a highly competitive line of modern muscle cars.

Kinda cool that the package captures the true nostalgia that makes the Challenger a hard thing to forget in the minds of enthusiasts who really appreciate these new offerings.

2010 Dodge Challenger – History Of A Legend

December 9th, 2009

The 2010 Dodge Challenger with it’s HEMI engine is striking. History is repeating itself with the Challenger being offered in the stunning color known as plum crazy. The experience of handling the power behind one of these is almost as exhilarating as the color purple that shares its predecessor roots. Its hard to describe in words how the design captures your undivided attention.

The lines are on the Challenger make it one of the best looking reincarnations amongst its com-padres the Camaro and Mustang. The saying looks aren’t everything does not apply here.

What is so special about plum crazy? Its just a color that was once available in the past, but what it does is transcends time to the days when you saw the capabilities of an american car company just dominate. It was a time that anyone today under 35 didn’t experience, or did they. Perhaps a family member shared stories of their time spent working at one of the big 3, so in that sense it may seem like that of a legend.

Detroit is all about bringing it, and they are clearly doing just that with the Challenger. This is an example of something you won’t get from an italian car maker, or a japanese car maker, this is a car built in your backyard, and literally you can find the evidence tucked away in garages all over Detroit. If you ever had the chance to visit the Woodward Dream Cruise you would see not only the cars that shaped this era, and now the future, but the people who made it all happen.

The brilliant people who put their talent to work back in the day are still around, still passionate and they are what made these car companies successful. They occasionally surface and share all sorts of details. Things like how they implemented or tested ideas for a new design and how it all came together in the end.

These cars are the history and what provided the passion to build companies like Ford, GM, and Chrysler. It was people who loved their job, bragged about their job, and lived their job. The decision to reenact these cars indicates the companies want to revive the spirit. Owning a Challenger back then, you know it was made by hard working American’s, making a living wage. Lets hope that the focus on bringing these cars back also means bringing Detroit back so future successes are built upon the foundations that were established there decades ago.
