The car will also enlist a roof mounted fin-style antenna, a newer more attractive steering wheel and door handles to coincide with the new passive entry feature, that will allow you to enter the locked car as long as you have the key fob in your pocket.
As of now, it looks like Chrysler will have a nice line-up for the 2010 2011 auto show season, as this engine will be powering the newly designed 2011 Chrysler 300 SRT8 and Dodge Charger SRT8 as well as the Challenger.
03-25-2010 UPDATE. - 2011 Dodge Challenger is supposedly going to be updated in the looks department with an updated fascia. The body of the car will still be the same except for subtle updates (possibly LED headlamps), so the car can debut as a fresh face along with the new 300 and Charger this coming November. The floorpan of the car is also going to be tweaked so the SE model will be able to fit the new MultiAir and direct injection Pentastar V6 engine.

Interesting info. I really like the idea of a DI pentastar in the SE. The non DI makes 280-290HP, wonder what what the DI version will make????
