Unforgettable style. An unrelenting classic.

Pull away from the tired crop of coupes out there. In a colorful blur. The classics are here … and bolder than ever.
Challenger R/T Classic offers the performance you expect along with conveniences like standard leather-trimmed, heated buckets up front and a kickin’ six-speaker Boston Acoustics® sound system with a 276-watt amplifier. The R/T’s exclusive design nods include:

Black retro-style side stripes, fender to quarter
20-inch Heritage wheel from Mopar® with performance BSW tires
Functional air inlet ducts on the performance hood
Available exterior colors: B5 Blue, Bright Silver, Brilliant Black, Detonator Yellow[1], HEMI® Orange, Stone White or TorRed
B5 Blue includes body color seat accent stitching

Challenger SRT8® Spring Special brings all of the SRT® HEMI® power and signature styling cues of the Challenger SRT8®, plus:

Available in two exclusive exterior colors: B5 Blue or Detonator Yellow[1]
Body color seat accent striping in B5 Blue or Detonator Yellow[1]

It comes down to two things: speed and style. Whether you choose the R/T Classic or the SRT8® Spring Special, you’ve got both in spades.

Air inlet ductsWorking with high-flow cylinder heads and special exhaust headers, the fully functional air-inlet ducts help increase engine breathing and enhance Challenger’s performance.

Really-really?

What they "really" do is channel air in over the manifold to cool !

The air doesnt make it into the throttle body, it blows down by the engine close to the exaust manafold roughly speaking. Those plastic peaces can be purchased for about $75.00 from a dealership.

Has anyone heard when the Detonator Yellow will be available for order?

I went to a local dealer on Monday and they could not place an order for the Yellow, only the Blue.

Thanks,

Kevin

Uh oh.. Looks like it has polished wheels. Those would be nice to have.

**MdotCline** · 03-28-2009, 01:34 PM

The blue is hard!

I saw a classic R/T at Frederick Dodge up in Youngstown today. I'll post a picture when I get a chance. It was Torred and the wheels looked better in person than the pics I've seen. It sits up too high for my liking though.
