Only reason for this thing is to sell to old folks trying to regain their youth. I'm one of those old folks, but don't see the appeal of such a relic at all.
Most old folks would hate getting in and out of it, too.
I remember the original Challenger as a decent, but not great car--same as the Mustang, for that matter.
For something old and inefficient, but brought to market for nostalgia reasons it's just OK. As a useful car it sucks IMO, and looks boring, too. Hell, why not bring back the '53 Studebaker coupe that really looked good during its time?

Well in 1969 I was -11, as in I hadn't been born yet. However, I loved the classic cars and ended up rebuilding one myself. 69 mustang mach 1. Anyway, I really like the new styles that pay hommage to the classics. How could someone not like that much power on demand when desired and have decent mpg when it's not? I'm looking forward to the companies trying to top each other in this little competition...as long as it doesn't bring the let down of the later 70's and 80's again. 2Suave, reading your comment was like listening to someone complain about classic works of art. You apparently didn't get it then, and you don't get it now.
