2015 Dodge Charger

Posted on by

Allpar has some interesting stuff on the 2015 Dodge Charger. They are currently expecting a mild refresh for 2015 to carry over until the big RWD Chrysler cars are completely redesigned (somewhere in the 2017 to 2020 range). Right now they are expecting a 6.2 liter Hemi pushing around 580 horsepower, updated electronics such as UConnect 2, Via Mobile and parking aids, eight-speed trannies for all motors (not just the V6 cans) and perhaps some suspension tuning. The rendering below shows some influence by the Maserati Ghibli. You can read more at Allpar

Beautiful Spanish Gold 1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible on eBay

Posted on by

Road Runner convertibles are my favorite B-body verts. And I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in Spanish Gold before. This one is equipped with an automatic, bucket seats and a working Air Grabber. It’s not numbers matching but assuming it’s solid, I’d love it have it! More pics after the jump! And be sure to check out the auction on eBay!

Update: the RR vert got bid up to $31,100 with reserve not met!

Original Bullitt Charger Camera Car Listed For $1 Million

Posted on by

That’s right, $1,000,000 for a car the seller claims is the original Charger camera car used in the movie Bullitt, one of just two Chargers used in filming. I’m surprised it has hubcaps, seeing how the Charger lost eight hubcaps during the big chase scene. Anyway, check out the ad on Cars-On-Line and see what you think. There are links to stories that support the fact that the car was the camera car–one at ponysite.de and one at Jim’s Garage–based mostly on the fact that when the car was discovered in Tucson, Arizona, there were drill holes in the floor and trunk that seem to match up with those seen in still pics of the camera car back during the shoot. Honestly, I’m not convinced, but who knows. There is also a crummy video taken at SEMA two years ago after the jump. The price is firm, so don’t even think about a lowball…

Dodge Charger and Challenger Most Popular Muscle Cars

Posted on by

Most popular in terms of search traffic, anyway. That’s according to Cars-On-Line, who claims that 18.5% of buyers are searching for Chargers and 15.7% are searching for Challengers. This seems a bit high to me, but hey, there is no question that Chargers and Challengers are popular (nevermind the fact many people seem to confuse the two). I assume, too, that this would include late-model Chargers and Challengers. Anyway, I showed you that awesome Hemi Charger yesterday, so how about this beautiful purple 4-speed 1970 Dodge Challenger RT/SE, for sale via Cars-On-Line.
