2008 Dodge Challenger Makes It's Official Debut

 



Well folks I can finally say the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 has arrived at this years Chicago Auto Show for it's official unveiling.  Dodge has released all the official information along with a ton of photos of the exterior, interior and engine bay.  It has been two long years since the debut of the concept back in 2006 and now the Challenger is ready to heat up the muscle car wars once again. 

For 2008 Dodge will be producing only 6,400 models in three distinct colors, HEMI Orange, Bright Silver Metallic and Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl Coat.  Each 2008 model will have the same SRT8 6.1L HEMI V8 with 425 horsepower and 420 lb.-ft. of torque that will propell the Challenger from 0-60 mph in the low 5-second range along with a 1/4 mile time of less than 14 seconds.  All 2008 models will only be available in an automatic.

The 2008 Dodge Challenger will carry an MSRP of $37,995 with a destination/delivery charge of $675.  Most if not all 2008 Challengers have already been accounted for by dealers and customers who put deposits down the first week they were able to.
