Thanks Chip and Mrs We.  Michelle and I agree with you on this one Chip, we think the Silver is the best of the 3 choices this year.

Black is the 3rd color

Our preference was Silver, then Black then Orange, but we never got to see the Orange in the daylight only on the showroom and they say it is much better looking out in the sun /shrug.

Must be why Harley chose Silver and Black for the premier 100th anniversary color.
I still think the silver Challenger looks best!
Good thing we all get a choice!

Brian,

Had they used Hemi Orange and not Inferno Orange it may have been harder to make a choice on the silver, but when you have seen all 3 to us there was no choice it was silver hands down as the sharpest looking of the 3 colors.

Heard that the challengers for 09 will be almost 4 grand more for the exact same car next year.

Snake,

While I can see for nostalgia sake, a stick would have been great.  But if someone uses the race excuse, this is a heavy car not one you would take to the track except for the sheer fun of it to run it.  Besides that, I really didnt want a stick anyhow with that rod still in my leg, so it was an easy choice this time.    The tiptonic type shifting does all I need it to with the ESP turned off.

I was just messin' with ya's! ;D  Sweet car, Harry. :2vrolijk_21:  I finally saw a black one that the owner of the dealer here bought for himself.  They really pulled the looks off on this car!  I'd take one in any color, including silver (too match my Ram SRT-10 ;) !).

 I think I read somewhere that the "09's" will be around $1600 more. Also, the six speed comes with 3.92 gears over the auto's 3.06.

OK, for you guys that have drag racing programs. Which 4000 lb. car will turn the fastest quarter mile ? A 375 horse , 3.92 gear or a 425 horse with 3.06 gear. All other things being equal. Of course, in the Challenger's case, everything isn't equal.The 375 horse R/T has a six speed manual and the 425 horse SRT is a five speed auto. I'm just curious.

Here's another question for you guys that have a new Challenger, why does the windows roll down slightly when you open the doors ?

2 reasons one is speculation though.

The window rolls down when you get out and back up when the door shuts for a tighter seal.   The cabin is quieter than any of the Chargers we have had even the 08 Super Bee.

The window was setup this way for a future release of a convertible although, Dodge denies this will happen.
