Title: Challenger
Post by: Bush Tucker Man on January 14, 2006, 21:18:10

Not wishing to be out-doen by Chevrolet, who are considering introducing a new Camaro (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?p=173077), Dodge have a new derivative of the famous Challenger on the cards.

Stung by the critiscm of the 2005 Charger (sad 4 door coupe) they want to get it right this time.

And it looks fantastic :D  :D

Challenger History (http://www.musclecarclub.com/musclecars/dodge-challenger/dodge-challenger.shtml)
The Challenger is probably best known for its role in the film 'Vanishing Point' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067927/), starring Barry Newman (later to become Petrocelli, who was forever building that damn bungalow!!!)

They remade Vanishing point starring that bloke who played Aragorn, Vego Mortinson or something, the plot was exactly the same, car was exactly the same, might as well not have bothered.
