Default New Dodge Challenger

I love it . Take a look: Here & here. I'm very impressed. Finally, the Mustang now has a true muscle car competitor. I cannot wait until this is officially unveiled at Detroit! A new Camaro is also said to be in the works and will be unveiled there as well.

This car actually keeps in touch with it's roots, not too modern. I think it is perfect. Say bye-bye Mustang.

I thought Chevy stopped Camaro production years ago? It was around the same time Pontiac stopped the Firebird.

Now, the Firebird is a car that Pontiac needs to resurrect. Design it as a throwback to the late 70s and early 80s models. That'd be a hot car. Get on that GM.

They did and now they're going to resurrect it, at least as a concept, for now. Rumors are also saying there may be a redesigned GTO (it better be good this time) and a new Chevelle . Should be very interesting. I just hope they use retro styling as seen in the 05-06 Mustangs, the Ford GT, and now the Challenger. I do not want to see another re-badged Holden (GTO) or a four-door Charger....

[edit] Yes, I'd love to see a new Firebird .

That is what I thought as well. You gotta remember, you are talking about GM, and they are running about 20 years behind everyone else.

Here's more info and pics.

It's just a concept and I don't think they even have an estimated price point. But I'd love to see it on the road no matter the price . BTW, those hood stripes are actually exposed carbon fiber and I believe the intake flaps are functional, ala Chevelle SS cowl induction, which I find pretty cool .
