Nice,. I have to admit they did a really nice job of capturing the essence of the oldy but goldy, while adding modern flair to the new Challenger. Still think the original is more baddass, but the new one is no slouch at all!

Very nice pictures of very nice subjects. :-)

Since there doesn't seem to be any exif information with them, would you mind posting which lens you used and a few of the settings?
These look like they were taken in near direct sunlight, and I always have problems with that. Looks like maybe these were underexposed a bit and then the contrast and brightness were brought up a little?

Really nice shots of some amazing cars, while I really like the new one, that original one sure looks more intimidating ... probably personal taste.

Amazing how you managed to capture the yellow tint without blowing out the top of the cars, as noted it looks like this was captured in bright sunlight, well done !

Exactly what I was thinking.

Good lord, the rear end on the new challenger is ugly.

I love the old version...

Nice timing on these

I'd take either one of them. I'll bet the original is worth a lot more that the new one.

That's a helluva find: Old and new, side-by-side, same color, (nearly)same trim package...

Just like the Camaro, there's enough of the new Challenger to be instantly recognizable
as an evolution of the original.

Great set here!

Of course I'm all right! Why? What have you heard?!?
