NEW YORK, June 29 (Reuters) - The Chrysler division of DaimlerChrysler AG (DCXGn.DE: Quote, Profile, Research) is expected to announce on Friday a new Dodge Challenger coupe styled and named after the automaker's 1970s muscle car, The Wall Street Journal said.
The V8-powered Challenger won't be sold until next year, but Chrysler will promote the car this summer to try to pull customers into showrooms, the newspaper said, citing people familiar with the company's plans.
Chrysler's announcement of the new Challenger tommorow at a Nascar race in Daytona Beach, Florida, was moved forward by several months in hopes it will create some buzz for the automaker, the newspaper's sources said.
I hope it takes off better then the Charger and GTO....... Source

All sounds good to me , sign me up for a lime green Hemi!

You lucky North Americans  I wish we could get it here in OZ.
