Chrysler to replace Challenger with Barracuda?
Motor Trend is reporting that Chrysler may replace the Dodge Challenger for a reinvented Barracuda. The magazine cites two unnamed sources as saying the Barracuda will resurface in time to celebrate the vehicle’s 50th anniversary in 2014. If true, the Barracuda will ride on a new smaller and lighter platform that’s more fit to compete with the likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro. The vehicle’s bones will likely be shared with Alfa Romeo, which means a turbo four-cylinder may show up behind the Barracuda headlights as well as a fire-breathing V8. The new Dodge Dart is slated to bring the four-cylinder to the table, but obviously we would be much more interested in a 5.7L or 6.4L HEMI model. MT suggests the design may pull from the original fastback Barracuda, though a notch-back version would allow Chrysler to more effectively compete against the drop-top hardware from Ford and Chevrolet.
We have no doubt Chrysler and Fiat are currently investigating ways to breathe new life into the Challenger. The vehicle has been content to plod along as a distant third to its muscle-car rivals, but pulling the Barracuda name back into play seems unlikely. For starters, the Barracuda sailed under the long-dead Plymouth banner, and both Dodge and Chrysler have a long list of hallowed names from which to choose. Stay tuned.

2011 Challenger pictures released!
Dodge released more pictures of the inaugural edition Deep Water Blue 2011 Challenger SRT8! The main change for 2011 is the 392 HEMI with 470 horsepower, but if you look closely you will notice the new SRT8 wheels, new 392 fender badging, and the throttle body on the 392 HEMI is farther up the neck of the air intake tube. This means that any manufacturer of after market intakes won’t be able to take the easy route & sell 2010 & ealier SRT intakes to 2011 Challenger SRT8 customers. The 2011 Challenger SRT8′s will need their own intake and other modifications designed up.

2011 Challenger at SEMA
No more leaked information as Dodge has officially pulled back the curtain on the 2011 Challenger SRT 392! With a new modified exhaust system and an upgraded clutch the initial 1,492 cars will be special Inaugural Edition models. These first 2011 Challenger SRT8′s will come with custom interior and exterior items including Deep Water Blue with standard Stone White stripes or Bright White Clear Coat with standard Viper Blue stripes. Plus, for the first time, the front grille will get a body-color grille surround. Special Edition models will also get “392 HEMI” badges on the fenders, Mopar quad exhaust tips and 20-inch SRT wheels. Inside the cockpit gets Smooth Pearl White leather-trimmed seats and dual blue stripes accented by unique blue stitching, with an embroidered “392” on the front headrests. A special “Inaugural Edition 392 HEMI” plaque showing the number of the car will also be positioned prominently on the dash.
“We listened to our devoted, loyal Dodge customers, and this new Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 answers their call for more power off the line,” said Ralph Gilles, President and CEO — Dodge Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “We consciously tuned the 392 for a lot more torque, as that is what truly creates the thrust that sets you back in the seat and keeps you there! We can’t wait to see our customers’ reactions when they get behind the wheel and put their foot on the throttle – it is so responsive and a blast to drive.”
Dodge claims a 0-60 mph time in the high 4-second range, with a 1/4 mile time in the high 12s. Oh, and we should mention the top speed of the new model is now an incredible 180-mph with the manual transmission – thanks in part to a new front fascia and lip spoiler.

2010 Challenger Convertible video
I came across this video of a 2010 Challenger with an awesome custom convertible top. Its definitely not a factory option but rumor has it there are companies that will do the modification for around $10,000. The quality of the video is not the greatest but its still pretty cool.
