Drive Like it's 1973

Dodge Challenger Silver-Black front, originally uploaded by kendoman26.

The production Challenger has arrived. It really does look good despite being a sedan instead of a hardtop. A lucky 8400 who have 42 grand will be able to walk away with this beauty. The 2009 model year begins in June and will include cheaper models with V-6s.

With the retro mustang in it's third model year, the Challenger arriving now and the new retro Camaro arriving next year it looks like the early seventies have returned. The new Challenger is the closest reproduction of the original and if we had a time machine it wouldn't look out of place in the early seventies.
