Jon Sibal’s 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T is probably more famous in the import community that it is in the Mopar community. With the matte black wrap and gold SSR wheels, it has been featured extensively on Speedhunters and of course Jon’s own blog. This recent video from Photo MD might be a good into for those of you who have not yet seen this cool Mopar. Video after the jump!
Mark’s Road Runner has a lift off hood due to the high rise intake. You might notice he also has a 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 and a Hemi Durango. Nice combo!
Ryan bought this stunning 2013 Dodge Challenger R/T new in Florida this year. Other than the stripes the only mod so far is Borla Atak exhaust. One more pic after the jump!

MSN recently published Muscle Cars: 20 That Made History and I counted seven Mopars on their list: 1956 Chrysler 300B, 1968 Plymouth Road Runner, 1968 Dodge Charger, 1970 AMC Rebel Machine, 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T, 1970 Plymouth Superbird, 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. Hmmm, I could probably think of a few more, like the 1968 Hemi Dart, but it’s not a bad start. What do you think?
Totally forgot about this great video by Audioslave from 2003, based on everybody’s favorite Mopar movie Vanishing Point. According to the guys at Bangshift, they used two Challengers during the filming of the video and then gave one away to a lucky fan when they were done. Video after the jump!
A large group of SRT cars was recently spotted out testing, including several Challengers prototypes with front bras hiding a revised front fascia for a lower air intake, plus different exhaust. These Challengers are most likely equipped with the new supercharged 6.2-liter “Hellcat” Hemi V8 which will help Mopar compete with the Camaro Z/28 and Mustang GT500. Power is predicted to be in the 600 horsepower range. The Hellcat Challengers are expected in 2014 as a 2015 model. See all the pics at Allpar
Almost forgot Instagram of the week! This week’s pic is a Challenger SRT8 with custom stripes done by The Sign Savers. Pic by Mopar_Man
You may remember Team Spankin Time from a video we posted last month of them spanking a McLaren MP4-12C. Well, they are not done humiliating supercars! Watch them leave a Ferrari FF after the jump! They also do the same thing to a 530 RWHP Z06. This Kenne Bell Supercharged Challenger runs 10s in street trim. Go Mopar!
This original, well-documented 4-speed 440 Six Pack Challenger came out of Canada very rusty. Alan Glenn completed a full OE restoration and was able to finish just before bringing it to Carlisle. He had to do new rear frame rails, trunk floor, rear quarter panels, trunk extensions, door skins, hood, etc. Looks great now, though! Via the official Dodge YouTube channel. Check out the video after the jump!
Great pic from the Dodge Challenger Facebook page. Photo by Shawn Jean Tuhkanen. Have you taken your Mopar on any road trips this summer?
