Check out http://competitionplus.com/index.php...=8352&Itemid=6. If Chevy develops a drag package for the Camaro similar to this and what Dodge has done with the Challenger; we may have a renewal of the factory wars of the 1960s.

Once the smoke clears in the GM-Chrysler scenario, there may be only one car(or none), to oppose the new Ford offering - and IT may have a limited run......hope not. Saw the CJ Mustang at Vegas yesterday.

One industry report speculates as to the Chrysler models that will survive a merger. The Challenger is not among them.

Excellent point, Dave; I didn't consider the possible impact of a GM-Chrysler merger.

I do not think the merger will ever take place. GM does not have the money and has been trying to get bail-out money from the governent.

jeep is still a valuable asset for Chrysler-someone (Toyota or Daewon or someone) will pay money to get that.
