    I have not been on in a while but I thought I would show everyone the new toy I have been enjoying. The color is B5 Blue.

    I saw one of those new Challengers up close the other day and it's a really beautiful car. I still think the Chargers are best cars out but those Challengers are truly amazing.

    I'm not in the market for a new car, but if I was, that would be my choice! Love the color, too! :thumbs2:

    I've driven quite a few at work now and the 6 speed with the 5.7 is a dream to drive. The Challenger is one nice looking car. The only thing we didnt like was they dropped the interior that was planned for it due to cost. It was suppose to come out with a version of the concept cars interior that was more of a retro Challenger look to it. They dropped it and opted for a version of the Charger/300 interior. Strictly a cost thing we were told. Now if they could get the ride height down a bit those cars would look really nasty. Even the SRT sits too high. The V6 cars look like 4x4's. Too much wheel well space. I really like the 5 spoke wheels that they came out with this year. Nice and retro.

    Any plans on lowering it an inch or so??? Likely huge money though.

    Thanks for all the good comments. I have to admit I have a real hard time keeping my foot out of it. The Mav still has the love though!
