Dodge Challenger Design Change?
Saturday, September 22, 2007 Filed in: Automobiles
I can't wait to see what the production version of
the Dodge Challenger will look like when revealed in
February 2008.
I saw a photo of a test vehicle that may reveal a design change from the original concept car.
If you look closely you can see that the front grill does not have the Dodge cross-hair design. Instead it is an open design similar to the one on the 1970 Challenger.

Other photos hinted at a change in the tail lights of the car as well.
Recently while toy shopping, I found an radio controlled Dodge Challenger from "1 Badd Ride" that had a cool redesign of the concept car.
The toy car had redesigned tail lights as well as the open grill from the 1970 Challenger. The Dodge cross-hairs were moved down to the lower air intake opening, replacing the "CARS" movie smile styled opening. The toy car that I bought was silver with black stripes instead of the red version pictured above.
Mopar Enthusiast magazine had some similar concept drawings for their version of the Dodge Challenger.

I hope that Dodge makes the production version similar to these designs.
