Dodge has some new hues up on the charts for us to fawn over and while most of them are targeted at changing shades of the Dodge Charger, we also see that the Dodge Challenger will come in at least three colors. We’ve seen the test car in a drab tone, covered in camouflage, but now we can look forward to seeing the car in the famous Hemi Orange Pearlcoat, Deep Water Blue Metallic, and Melbourne Green Pearlcoat. . Stay tuned, as this summer is beginning to bring on details regarding this muscle car reborn, as well as the Chevrolet Camaro. Also, keep reading to see the other paint codes (colors) being offered. |

The new Dodge Challenger was just spied on the streets of Motor City! These exclusive photos show the Mopar monster is truly alive and well, wearing a few articles of camouflage on a relaxing voyage. This long-awaited participant in the horsepower race just shows us how much the dream of modern day muscle cars is becoming a reality. The forthcoming Chevrolet Camaro has already made its screening debut, in the Transformers movie (opening July 3rd).

We all knew last year the new Dodge Challenger was a go. Now, we can be certain the classic is now reborn, in the flesh. This quick snapshot shows the car, perhaps a test mule, floating down the assembly line, awaiting the wonderful HEMI powerplant just a few stages away. Set to make its official debut at the Chicago International Auto Show next year, this Mopar machine is sure to capture all the attention--or at least most of it, while it fights for fame against the new Chevrolet Camaro. When we hear more or see more on the new Dodge Challenger, we'll be sure to keep you posted! |

Fans of the past Dodge Challenger were able to get their tooling hands on many aftermarket performance parts--the upcoming Dodge HEMI forecast looks like a good chance of continuing the fun. Performance pieces for the 5.7 liter, 6.1 liter, and the 392ci engines are flowing onto the stream and will likely sell like hotcakes. Even MagnaFlow is set to provide some exhaust systems for the HEMI beast. Forged crankshafts, connecting rods, and camshaft are going to be ready for the HEMI powered machines on (and soon to hit) the streets. CNC-ported cylinder heads for all three Dodge HEMI powerplants will be able to handle camshafts with valve lifts of up to .600"! The folks over on Muscle Car News gave us the scoop, so head over there to check out the full story. If we hear more, we'll surely be here to let you know about it! |

This weekend past, Dodge brought a shiny black Pro-Stock Challenger to the Detroit Autorama show. Continuing to build the excitement for the actual rendition of the concept to come sometime within the next year, Dodge also brought along a HEMI-powered Nitro, the Venom concept, and several other SRT flavored MOPAR rides.

Bucking the norm of exhibiting customizations to production vehicles at SEMA, Dodge decided to show off some tasteful customizations to a concept vehicle. The Dodge Challenger Super Stock Concept is a direct derivative of the Dodge Challenger concept we've all been hearing about. Its main objective--to pay homage to the original 392ci HEMI engine by boasting an all-new 392ci HEMI crate motor. This all-new crate HEMI is available in three flavors: a carbureted version producing 540 hp / 490 lb-ft of torque, an EFI twist that has an output of 525 hp / 510 lb-ft of torque, and finally, a long block setup. Take a closer look at the car (below) as well as all of the technical specifications (from the official Press Release). If we hear anything more on this new HEMI heat, we'll be sure to let you know. |

According to the Detroit News, Tom Tremont (Chrysler VP and lead designer) has stated that the production version of the Dodge Challenger will be identical to the concept version we've been ogling over for some time now. "You're not going to be able to tell the difference," he stated. While his commentary is likely directed at the exterior of the Challenger, it’s safe to assume the interior will also get a consistent brushstroke. "We knew if we screwed this up, we would lose a lot of fans," said Alan Barrington, who spearheaded the concept interior design. |
