Dodge brought a quiver of Challengers to the party (as did about fully half of the exhibitors) but there was only one sitting on a spinning platter. To wit: Rhys Millen thinks he’s so special with his Hyundai Genesis Coupe race car, does he? Well, meet Sam Hübinette’s Mopar drifter. Sure, Millen’s Coupe might have a super aggressive [...]
Dodge recently delivered the dire news that it had no plans to offer a convertible Challenger. If you know a heart-broken Mopar fanatic, tell ‘em to dry their tears. Looks like Coach Builders Ltd. is coming to the rescue with a convertible package for the mighty Challenger, which it will unveil at SEMA soon. According [...]
Every red-blooded American — Mopar fan or not — died a little when Dodge introduced the Charger as sedan only. Where were those “I’ll kick your ass and take your woman” looks? The ones that battled the infamous Challenger in Vanishing Point? The ones that ran moonshine in Hazard County, and ran from Steve McQueen [...]
Hello, and welcome to the 8th edition of The Truth vs. Fiends! Today, Mr. Justin and I get into all things Mopar. Before we get to the meat and/or potatoes of today’s recording, i want to share my favorite automotive joke with you. Those of you that are way into muscle cars no doubt have [...]
With all the buzz surrounding the Dodge Challenger, it’s easy to forget there’s another Mopar heathen in the stable. Next year the four-door favorite of cops everywhere is getting a few cosmetic tweaks and some major wrenching under the hood. In R/T trim, the car is getting a reworked 5.7-liter Hemi 8 with 368 horsepower, [...]
Folks seem pretty excited about the new V Eight Jensen Interceptor SX. And why not. All real pistonheads secretly crave a big, bloody British coupe with a long bonnet, big motor and smoking lounge interior. Now, as fate would have it, Levy’s dad owned lots of Interceptors back in the day. Including an orange one. [...]
We think the bone-stock 2008 Dodge Challenger sounds pretty slick. With all 6.1-liters of Hemi fury burbling out of the back of the car, there’s no denying the sexiness of the car’s song. Still, the scientists at Magnaflow know that the stock exhaust is holding up even more ponies and an even better chest stomping [...]
Sorry, we couldn’t resist. Bad alliteration aside, Chip Foose, design wonder boy and car builder extraordinaire, has delivered his latest Foose Coupe to its wealthy lucky owner. An exercise in combining all that there is to love about the old school hot rod and supercar technology, the car is slick as can be. The Coupe [...]
Sure, this ain’t exactly the most earth shattering news we’ve ever run across. But it’s still cool enough to excite our inner 9-year-old. And from where we sit, that’s what it’s all about. Last month we learned that no less a pistonhead than Jay Leno took delivery of the very second Dodge Challenger SRT8 in [...]
Chrysler might be just minutes away from filing Chapter 11, but that’s not stopping the Dodge boys from throwing up a pretty monumental Hail Mary. For every 9-year-old boy (or at least pistonheads with the hearts and minds of 9-year-olds) knows that the new Corvette ZR1 is the mightiest, most baddesst assiest machine ever conceived [...]
