It looks like the Need for Speed franchise is taking a page from Burnout and going the free DLC route. For anyone still playing Need for Speed SHIFT after Forza 3 has already been released some new DLC is on the way, and it isn't just a few new cars to race in. Come Dec. 1 on the 360 and Dec. 3 on the PS3 SHIFT players will get an all new gameplay mode called Team Racing. It actually looks pretty damn...
We like police cars. Seriously. Just not when they're filling our rearview mirrors, blue-and-reds ablaze. Then, our fanboy status diminishes markedly. In the meantime, however, we get pretty jazzed when a department does something a little different and cool. This week's example comes from the Broward County Sheriff's office, which appears to have added a fully-marked Dodge Challenger R/T to its fleet....

A perfect day continued with muscle cars and ended with an antebellum home, all in Mississippi, a tasty supper in Louisiana, and some penny-machine fun (for Mama anyway), back in Mississippi. There were two muscle cars inside the buildings at Milton's friend's place. A purple Charger--1970 if I remember right--in the process of being restored sat in the newer building, and a yellow 1970 Dodge Challenger...
Cash for clunkers? The latest offering from the safest hands in sim racing turns out to be another reissue of ageing stalwart Race 07. Last year the Swedish dev added Nordschleife and a host of handsome Grand Tourers, and called the result GTR: Evolution. This year they've bolstered it with American muscle cars, Swedish touring action, and WTCC 08 updates, and called the result Race On. Cynical cash-gouging...
Yes, a new Dodge Challenger Charger Daytona involves a suit, but updated to the fans of today's muscle car. Under the hood is a standard 5.7-liter HEMI V8, further demonstrates the point when it comes to SUPERBIRD / Daytona, which is on the outside that counts! Fortunately for us, HPP did a decent job abroad.Although we are convinced that it is the same dimensions as the Mondo-sized Daytona
Taylor Randall is one lucky birthday dude. On his 19th birthday while playing The Price is Right, he won a scooter, Ford Mustang, a Dodge Challenger, and $26,000 in cash. Some of these prizes he won the hard way - like spinning the Price is Right wheel and hitting the number 100 twice in a row . What are the odds? Or how bout playing Lucky $EVEN and losing 5 of his 7 dollars guessing the first number...
The 1963 Split-Window Coupe is one of the more rare Corvettes you'll have trouble finding and has a design feature that didn't last, primarily because it neatly blocked the sightline of the rearview mirror. In a sense the design was ahead of its time, meaning if it could be combined with today's rearview cameras, rather than mirrors, then the split window wouldn't be a problem. GM's latest back-to-the-future...
In case you hadn't noticed, the Dodge Challenger is already pretty retro, but the fellows at Heide Performance Products have turned the retro up to 11 with the HPP Daytona , a Dodge Charger Daytona re-imagined on a Challenger chassis. The HPP Daytona, first unveiled at SEMA earlier this month, is little more than a dolled-up Challenger R/T with the 5.7-liter HEMI. Nothing's been tweaked beneath the...

We've driven the SE , R/T and SRT8 variants before. However, this time it's different. We've secured a Challenger SRT-8 with a six-speed manual transmission - and it's a whole different breed of bull. The six-speed-equipped...
Filming of the show "The Forum Wars ," presented by Royal Purple , is in the can after a full day of shooting at Irwindale Speedway. See some of the cars and forums that tried to "represent." These days every car model has its own forum; if you look hard enough I'll bet you can even find a webpage dedicated to the usefulness and styling excellence of the Pontiac Aztek. In most...
Among the vehicles on display in the Chrysler booth at SEMA was one unsuspecting Dodge Challenger with the description of "Mopar Edition". The Mopar Edition Challenger featured several items from the Mopar catalog. At first glance the Challenger almost looked stock except the Mopar hood graphics, hood pins and 20-inch wheels gave it away. In...
What you’re looking at here is a modern interpretation of the Plymouth Road Runner based on the 2009 Dodge Challenger with a 6.1L HEMI turbocharged V8 engine. The concept is being put together by an independent designer Michael Leonhard, who is selling the car once he’s done building it. The 6.1 HEMI turbocharged V8 allows for a total [...]
