I still have my doubts about a Viper V10 powered Challenger, but believe that something might be in the works. Keeping in mind that Hemi Orange seems to be Dodge's favorite launch color for the Challenger, here is what a Chrysler worker posted today on a Mopar forum:

They ran quite a few Hemi-Orange Challengers down the line today with the same cutout in the hood that they use for the Mopar '10... but isn't it only available in black?
When someone confirmed the M10 Challenger was only to be made in black, another Chrysler worker replied:

We thought the same thing on Final today....someone had already put it in the computer to verify the hood. Some calls were made....then it was confirmed that the hood scoops will now be functional. Its nice how we are last to know...yet we are the ones building the car. WCM at it's best.
It could be something as simple as a second color for the M10, or a new option on R/Ts or SRT8s... ooooor ???
