2Coff - I agree with you about the bitching.
It's going to be here in 4 years, not 5. It says 2010 model year, meaning 2009.
In saying that, in 4 years, the Hemi could be putting out more horses. Many things could happen in 4 years. So quit the whining people.

Man for a bunch of Dodge lovers all you guys do is bitch and complain about there new cars, even thow there 10x better then there last models.
There's good reason to whine about it. First of all, its missed the retro muscle car mark. Second, the design sucks for a concept... I'd rather be driving a Scion Xb. Third, "could" doesn't cut it. I don't think the Hemi will get that big of a Hp boost, but the Mds system would be nice for it...

First, who says there is an official "retro muscle car mark". That's like following clothing trends.
Second, I garuntee you that the Challenger will not look like these concepts.
Third, how do you know what Chrysler will do. They might boost it up quite a bit, you nevere know.

I agree 5 years is a ways off. DC will for sure make the hemis better. But the bad part about 5 years off is that there is plenty of time to kill it, or set it up to fail to validate the coupes don't sell crap.

Acually it will only be 3 year, a 2009 will be released in 2008. I love the look of the new dodge's they look new but at the same time have a retro feel with out a direct copy like the mustang. Plus the engineering in these cars are so much better then before. It's all personal prefrance, but I don't get cough up in the names of cars like most ppl do here, it's just some letters to me, the car it's self is far more important.

SAVE TIME! Buy a Charger and put a Challenger name plate on it, weld the back doors shut then fill in the door gaps, sand, paint and remove the door handles. :)

Perhaps, there are times they do a late release. I.E. Dakota R/T is a 2006. You won't find one till after the new year. Also we are never on time. So expect delays as well. So I still say 5, if ever.

Its not a matter of "if ever". The program is officially a go, as announced by execs at a press conf. in Detroit. They can't back down now. 9 chances out of 10 it will look nothing like any of the concepts floating around, although its really hard to tell. I believe Motor Trend was the first to report the news. And yes I meant DCX, not DMX. I dont even know what the hell DMX is.
