IMO of course
The 6.4 V8 and 3.6 Pentastar V6 are coming for 2011, and new transmissions for 2012, don't forget the CHallenger did get improvements for 2010 as well, including updates to the 6 speed manual, new touch screen stereos (standard on SRT with 30g HD on base units and 60g on nav units), and most importantly the super track pack for R/Ts that answers it's most serious detriment, handling. THis includes larger sway bars, self leveling shocks, performance brakes, full off Stability control, and 3 season tires. 11 is also a refresh which is supposed to finally offer additional colors for the interior and anew steering wheel, no idea if there will be exterior changes. Remember they don't have much cash to work with right now, but they are making improvements. honestly the R/T is powerful enough, it may not be as quick as the GT or SS Manual, but it has plenty of juice, best of 13.2 is nothing to sneeze at. The V6 and SRT are what need the most attention and they are getting it for 11.
