Thumbs up Challenger on Cruise


Challenger on Cruise

Edmunds.com

We take the wheel of the Dodge Challenger concept car for a combination driving impression, focus group and publicity stunt.

What would you do if someone handed you the keys to a sexy zillion-dollar concept car? You'd go show it off to your buds, right?

So when DaimlerChrysler bravely agreed to let us take its Dodge Challenger concept car out in public and play for a day, we knew exactly where to go. The Challenger design study paves the way for a retro-revival production vehicle intended to fire passions in enthusiasts of all ages. (Doesn't "2007 Dodge Challenger" have a promising ring?) So in an exercise that was one part driving impression, one part focus group and one part crass publicity stunt, we spent 20 miles behind the wheel of the Challenger in real traffic, and showed up at two of Southern California's most popular Saturday-morning car-people gatherings.

DaimlerChrysler come on. Build the car! I am saving my pennies.

I am so jealous that other people got to look and touch. Even sit in the challenger.

Thanks Dmag for this site. I often am veiw the site, more active in the lxforums.

Thats what big tires do for you.....The look will change before it goes to production.
