SRT 392

Redline Red

Technology Group
Nav
Red Seatbelts

Another challengertalk forum member posted a picture of his Redline SRT for me. This is exactly what mine will look like, only mine won't have a front license plate. Damn she's sexy!

Very nice choice! I think you'll really like it.

That's a great picture man! It looks like you two had a blast.

Who cares ? Whatever floats your boat. If I wanted a Challenger , I would buy one. I guess I wouldn't come here and basically announce that I don't want a Camaro. Heated discussions usually ensue .

Who cares what you would have done? Who cares whether or not you approve of my thread? I certainly don't.

P.S. Nobody is trolling. It was a joke.
I actually took yours as a joke, and replied with one of my own. Then I saw Chris do it too and got mad.

Original Poster: The Challengers are great looking cars too. It's nice that there are options out there, just as there were back in the day. Enjoy it.

I like them,I was at a coffee shop drive through and one was parked near the entrance.

On the way in I said nice car and on the way out he said the same to me.

If I didn't get the Camaro I wanted the Challenger was next on the list.
