    Very charismatic. He talks like a car enthusiast and not an executive (with the exception of some of the marketing buzz words he uses)

    I'm listening to him thinking "negative camber, yeah did that, opened up the noise, yeah, did that"

    Basically take the first five mods most people did to their LXes, and they incorporated that into the new IE 392s. So now I'm like damn, I wish I could afford a new one. Great job and just more motivation to get back to work so I can get one.

    Really Dodge? Really? What the heck??? It sounds like they're working on
    things I wished our cars did stock!

    BMW, new srt8... BMW, new srt8... Lol

    I'm impressed they worked on the steering and suspension to a great degree... Even sounds like by reconfiguring the steering and how it's connected, it'll have more road feel as well...

    Good grief.

    When I test drive a new srt8, I hope it feels like a box of rocks or else I'm gonna start lusting again. Crap! Crap! Crap!

    I do hope it's THAT improved... But in a way, I hope it's not! Lol

    And I like how Jason basically said the same thing I did, but of course added his MoMo-style word-flourish along with the requisite BMW comparison. Now I know he doesn't read what I type. LOL, jeez.

    I do my best to read what people write... seriously. What I comprehend is another matter! LOL

    But honestly, if Dodge did improve the vehicle as they're saying... then they did exactly what I was implying they needed to do in the other thread that got everyone's panties in a bunch.

    When I test drive an '11 or '12, while keeping in mind the size difference compared to a 3 series... if these things are gonna handle like they're saying... although I'd likely consider a Challenger, stictly for a "change"...

    Anyone know of a good divorce lawyer?!?!

    Mmmm, jummy!
    They didn´t seem to have upgraded the interior of the Challenger the way they have with the Charger witch is a shame, it would make it a real contender with the BMW 6-series.
    My bankaccount is currently way low so I´ll just have to drool and dream...

    20x9 n 20x10 wheels would be perfect for the 2011 challengers.
