Default Re: 08 Challenger- Wow, what a car!

Bob, Most cars today have an annoying amount of orange peel strait from the factory.I didn't see any orange peel on this car, but then I wasn't looking for it. I was kinda caught up in the magic of the car. I was 17 the first time I ever rode in a Challenger. It was a 73 ,and was orange with a white interior. I weighed in at 145lbs. This new one is kinda bigger than life because of if size (Maurice is around 5'8" but he looks like a little kid standing next to the car). When I saw the car, it was like I was 17 again...I wasn't thinking, what no 6 speed? or of any other of short comings the car might have. Chyrsler did a better job of capturing the styling of the Challenger then Ford did with Mustang. Again overall it was pleasantly surprising experiance.
