The Gear Shift

Just some simple pics I thought were cool.

#1: Dodge Challenger Concept during its unveiling. Cool note... I was literally standing at the back of the car as it was waiting to go on stage. I was so close I could feel the heat from the exhaust. The car looks amazing in person and it sounds incredible! Make. This. Car. Now.

#2. Chrysler Imperial Concept: Ok check this beast out. Look how big it is! There I am standing next to it and it dwarfs me... and I'm 6' 2". Ok I lied, I'm 5' 5", but still the car is massive. It has presence though and I liked that, plus the interior looked super classy.

#3 & #4: Ferrari FXX. You know how sick the Ferrari Enzo is and this is sicker (is that a word?). Anyway, you get the drift, they even represented with black wheels, you know that just screams "I'm a bad a**!"

#5: Ford GT painted in Gulf Oil colors. This my friends is a tribute to heritage and it looked stunning in person. Oh to have seen these cars during the 60's tearing up the Mulsanne Straight on their way to victory at Le Mans. It must have been a sight.

I'll share more over the next few days.

Later,

  FINALLY, somebody does something right with this whole influx of new/old car concepts. The Challenger is BEAUTIFUL, and the CLOSEST anyone has ever come to the classic look. I cannot wait to see it out on the streets. When it comes to this new wave of modeling new cars after their older siblings, I am a firm believer in either going all the way, or leaving well enough alone. I hope Dodge sets a new standard for all future cars - do it right or don't do it at all.
  
  Thanks for the pictures! I can't wait to see more of this car.
