[Illustration of New Car] The car introduced today can be used as a seasoning for you to browse car home, because it belongs to the "minority among the minority" in China. However, in the long history of American automobile, it is one of the representative works of the model, and it is also a frequent visitor to Quentin Talentino’s B-rated films. It is a Challenger, a can of heavy flavor flavoring agent that brings together "wild and violent".
The real shot model is the limited edition of 2011 Dodge Challenger 8 392, which is the first time that Dodge Challenger has used the 6.4-liter V-8. At present, it has not been officially listed in China, but some dealers who like American muscle cars sell them through import channels.The dealer sells for 1.18 million yuan.(American price:$45,080, including 143.5% tariff and 60,000 yuan inspection fee.）。 Of course, the "ten thousand tax" is not in the topic. It is more suitable for those who have a lot or like American culture and rice to collect. In their eyes, the price that has been multiplied several times is not a problem.

■ The appearance is retro and unruly.
As a performance totem of Dodge, the third-generation Dodge Challenger uses the same platform as Dodge, both with rear-wheel drive design, and continues to carry forward the unruly character of American muscle sports cars. In this generation of challengers, shape designer Jeff Gale combined the shape of "Yuanzu" in the 1970s with rounded design techniques to reproduce the classic challenger image. Therefore, the challenger in front of us is completely out of tune with the secular models with the retro style of the 1970s.
Maybe you are more familiar with Italian supercars, and Dodge Challengers are different from them. Exaggerated, in the eyes of Italian supercars, it may be the old-school action star, such as Clint Eastwood, a arrogant and arrogant tough guy in the west, and he is slovenly, and neither of them will obey anyone. I haven’t driven an Italian supercar, so I can only tell you that driving this Dodge Challenger on the road will give you the illusion of being on the hot highway yesterday, and your male hormones will rise sharply. Do you believe it?
Let’s talk about the car in front of us again. The 392 logo on the side of the car shows that it is a limited-edition model launched by the Dodge Challenger SRT8 after adopting the 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 engine (392 refers to its displacement of 392 cubic inches, equivalent to 6.4 liters in metric system), and the limited-edition identity shows its preciousness. In addition to the exclusive logo, the five-piece wheel hub and black decoration surround it, which makes it different from the ordinary version.
The front face is very special, and the grille and headlights blend in one area and shrink in, which looks deep and fierce. Fortunately, it does not use the thick cross grille popular in the Dodge family at present, but still uses the rectangular chrome grille inherited from the "ancestors" with two round headlights on the left and right. Just the details of these front faces will make you feel its strong retro atmosphere.
It can be seen from the side of the car that it is the same as the challenger in the 1970 s, that is, the large muscle lines raised behind the C-pillar. In fact, the B-pillar was not designed for the sake of beauty at that time. Later, the design team added B-pillar to strengthen the support of the roof. However, the B-pillar is hidden inside the side window glass, and it can be seen in the car. From the outside, the flat glass creates the illusion of a hard-top sports car, which is very creative.
Dodge Challenger 392 Limited Edition adopts five-piece aluminum alloy wheels. After polishing and electroplating, it shows a pure American style, simple and rude, and does not play tricks, which is exactly what American muscle cars are looking for. The existence of calipers can be glimpsed from it. However, according to the feedback from Challenger owners, it is recommended to buy it and refit it into the first six caliper groups. Because the former four-piston caliper group of the original factory obviously feels powerless in front of this rude beast.
If there is the roar of the engine "thump … thump … thump" on the open street, you can think that it comes from Harley Davidson’s motorcycle, but when you look back, you see a distinctive sports car rushing away, and even find that its taillights occupy most of the line of sight of the whole rear, which is very eye-catching and exaggerated. Yes, this must be the challenger of Dodge. Its taillight group is very similar to the long rectangular grille on the front of the car. The small black spoiler integrated with the rear enhances this sense of movement, while the SRT8 badge on the right suggests that this challenger has fierce strength that ordinary models do not have.
