So, we'll see one of these in the OCUK car park in a year's time?
Cassius Clarke said:hate to say it but I actually like the look of these (being a long term anti american car type of guy) but you just gotta have it stickered up like the general lee, only if its just for a few months (becuase everyone will prolly do the same as more come into the country)
JRS said:You are aware that the General was a '69 Charger, rather than being any kind of Challenger, right? World of difference between a B-body and an E-body style car. Anyone that paints one of these up as the General needs to be shot for it.

JRS said:Miscellaneous thoughts:
1) You suppose they'll do a Plymouth 'Cuda version, with two headlamp units rather than four and different rear lights?

JRS said:Let's look at weight for a second shall we?
'05 Merc SL600 - 4429lbs
'06 BMW M5 - 4012lbs
'06 Mustang - 3613lbs
The Roush modding probably didn't add an awful lot of weight to that, and 420 ponies isn't an inconsiderable amount.
The New Ford Mustang - destroying the myth that all American cars are overweight barges one lap at a time.....

2) Gibbo, get your Challenger in Alpine White if they offer it - pretend you're Kowalski!
How does a headlight conversion drop much weight?Gibbo said:Well the Saleen Mustang only weighs in at 3500lbs according to their site so they are either lying or they manage to trim the weight somewhat. I guess there new suspension parts, axle backs and headlight conversion is much lighter than the Stock Mustang etc.

American cars use more metal that a full size American aircraft. Its surprising how heavy even a head lamp bracket is. Takes two of us to lift my bonnet off. And the bumper is stupidly heavy all though 1 person can just about manage LOLZip said:How does a headlight conversion drop much weight?
