June 20, 200619 yr Verdict on Challenger to be Decided by Fall The Chrysler group may decide whether to make the Challenger muscle car as early as the end of the third quarter, CEO Tom LaSorda says. LaSorda on Friday said Chrysler has been flooded with positive responses to the Challenger concept, shown at the Detroit auto show in January. If Dodge has any sense, they'll build it. Unless of course, they want the new Camaro to go unchallenged (no pun intended). Read "Chrysler to decide whether to build Challenger by fall" @ Autoweek
July 4, 200619 yr It looks like it's a go. Sweet! http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti...E/60630001/1024
July 26, 200619 yr It looks like it's a go. Sweet! http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti...E/60630001/1024 162444[/snapback] Just read an article in this mornings paper(7-26) on my Amtrak ride to work and the article stated it was a "go".
July 27, 200619 yr Well, even though I am not a retro fan, if it's good for Chrysler, then I am happy.
July 28, 200619 yr I think the car they built it just a little too retro. This sketch looked at least a bit progressive. Hopefully they'll tweak before production but it is smart because it shares so much from the parts bin already.

They have both been months or years in the making.
July 28, 200619 yr the question now is if they choose to do mass production or limited production. I hope the go for mass so that I might be able to afford one. another $35k sportscar does me no good.

That drawing looks dead on as to what the concept was
