Default Roush Challenger???

Back in May of 2007, Roush Performance Products announced that it would be breaking off exclusive ties with Ford. Since then, the tuning company must have been hard at work. Yesterday spy photographers spotted a ROUSHcharged Chevrolet Silverado out testing and today two production Dodge Challengers were spotted in the Roush parking lot.

While neither Dodge nor Roush has announced a tuning package for the Challenger, it seems a little strange that two high-performance muscle cars would just be sitting in the Roush parking lot — just days before their official unveiling, no less — for no reason.

Still, nothing is official, be we suspect a ROUSHcharged Dodge Challenger could be in the cards. Dodge is already planning one high-performance Challenger variant in the form of the Super Stock dragster.

If nothing else, the latest photo at least gives us another glimpse at the production Challenger before its Chicago debut.

i read some where that some 8,000 people have all ready reserved them, i bet its going to be hard to get one the first year.

I'm disappointed in the way these have turned out. They're exactly like the 300, Magnum, and Charger SRT8s, they have little upgrading potential, they're heavy, and they're only available with automatics. Has anyone seen pics of the interior? I bet it's exactly like the others.
