Dodge Challenger photoshoot

I shot this for a couple from Cali, they had the Challenger painted in the original crazy purple, it cost an extra 5200 i think they said. This was tough it was sooooo overcast and dull.

T/A stood for Trans Am as in the Trans Am racing series back in the late 60's early 70's
Mustangs, Camaros, AAR Cudas, ChallengerT/A's, Firebird trans-am's all raced together.

I actually like the looks of this car and am kinda considering buying one. But dealers are pretty much being ****** when it comes to pricing. So far its either been MSRP or marked up even more than that. Are they out of their freakin' minds? Ive pretty much given up on it already. The R/T and SRT are way overpriced to start with. Guess dealers think every baby boomer who had one in high school will jump all over these. Its not gonna happen. Told one dealer to call me at the end of the year when they are still sitting on the lot.

I don't; the Camaro is enough for me. There is no point in rebadging the Camaro...just let the firebird RIP. Besides, with Pontiac being closed/sold, there is no hope for a "firebird", but if it is sold, maybe a sports car of a different name.

It was a special package on the early 70's Challenger that made the car look like the one that ran in the Trans Am racing series.

Very nice pics. The last one is my favorite. It sucks in the 4th pic how
you can see a reflection of a tailight from another car on the Challenger though.

I actually do like the Camaro looks-wise. I havent gone to look up close yet but I have seen a couple on the road and they look decent. If I consider it, Ill wait until the hype dies down. Im not paying a premium just to be one of the first to have one. And by premium I mean MSRP or above. Not worth it, IMO.

Wow, the Pics are great. Awesome looking Challenger. Since I have sold my 8, I have test driven the Challenger and the Camaro. Both are nice cars.Both handle well for such a heavy car. The Camaro has more power,but is like sitting in a hole. Hard as hell to see out of. Didn't like the instrument panel. I think it is a poor attempt to retro the 1969 instruments. The Challenger has a cleaner looking cockpit and a little more headroom. It has all the power I need. I like things about both cars. I am still looking at an 07 Vette though til Mazda comes out with a 2 seater rotary with more power, it's probably going to be the Vette.

Color is badass, great pic with the clouds/mountains in background. Tire/wheel combo looks wayyyy too puny for that big *** car. Some beefy tires and wider rims would make world of diff.

The last pic is awesome... reminds me of Top Gear for some reason.

Also, what the hell is T/A? Is it like T&A? :p
