looks sweet, but what's up with the no manual? LAME!

Like I said, I'm pretty sure you can get it in a manual. If not now, then you will definitely be able to get it later in the year.
 
I was at the 2008 Auto & Boat show in Harrisburg last week. I was dissapointed once again that the challenger wasn't there. The talk of the show was the new Camaro. I guess it's not a bad looking car but ehh....it's a chevy. Here's a few pics I took of it.

I just picked up a SSEi Bonneville with supercharged 3.8l
The car is a 94 but super clean! It hauls *** too!

I drove the SRT8 Chrysler 300 with automatic. It was insane for a luxury car! If the Challenger is faster it will be nuts! I smoked tires thru 2 gears and locked up in third gear and by the time I hit overdrive I was 135 mph! No shut down relays on the car I drove as it wa used and modified. A 2006 model for $36K.

The SRT* hemi models are as close as you can get to driving Vipers w/500hp! The 2001 Viper I drove hit 130 in 3rd gear with 3 gears to go! That cars was insane but the front end gets away from you and starts floating at high speeds. Completely the opposite of what happens in a Z06 Vette. At high speeds in the Vette the back end gets loose and wants to come around! Anytime your over 100mph you got to know how to "get out of it", slow down, and maintain traction so you don't slide.

Saltydog_1 will tell you I go everywhere at 100mph! Even in an Omni! I am a total speed freak!

#1 reason not to let me borrow your 05 Mustang...

I am going to have a "Mid-life Crisis" over this car!!!!!

That challenger is a beautiful car! Maybe time to trade the magnum! lol nah.

Did you see that new Plymouth Cuda some rich guy made at the Sema show? I guess he was pissed that Chrysler dropped the Plymouth line so he decided to make his own Cuda for spite! He took a new Charger, striped it down and put all this custom work into it. I'll see if I can find the pics of it. It's a beaut!
