I heard only the V-6's will come with the 8 speed in 2012 and the 5.7, 6.4 will be with the standard 5 speed they have been using. Not gonna get one anytime soon, but the 2011's really got my attention in the looks department.

It's not super huge either, it's about the size of a Camaro and shorter than the Challenger (I think). It has a lot of low end punch, but still nothing compared to my Mustang. but that's okay.. gonna keep things simple with that car. Pretty much just a high stall torque converter, supercharger and exhaust system.. possibly tint and rims.

the gearing is ridiculous though.. 2.89 or 3.01 wtf?

I wish.. all I need is a GT front, remove the side vents and get some black rims. I really like how it sits now though. No complaints, though I sure need to wax and shine though..

btw, car is looking good with those graphics gone. I hadn't seen it since March

I wish the GT/CS bumper came on the Bullitt
Thanks, the decals were growing old and so am I

it served it's purpose and gave me props and such, but enough was enough.

I might end up getting those lower grill guards actually.. don't want rocks to start chipping on the intercooler...

I saw in MOTOR TREND today a picture of the Charger Super Bee and the Challenger Yellow Jacket. Both putting out around 470 hp but with a price tag of $41K!

Mopar has been bad to me so I would not ever buy another dodge product again. I would switch to a Kia before I bought another Dodge.

I think it would look sweet with Pony fake gas cap instead of the GT one. If you want to get crazy get some of the V6 rims... with the spinners... mmmmmm spinners.
