Dodge Challenger: Exterior Styling

Jeff Gale is the chief exterior designer for the 2009 Dodge Challenger. In this interview at the media preview for the car at Willow Springs race track in California, he explained to me how they tuned the car for better aerodynamics and how they used a few styling "tricks" to enhance the proportions of the design.

Really cool video. More informative and helpful than any interview with an auto engineer I've ever heard or read from the MSM.

I love the look of the car, but IMO opinion they are asking too much $ for what they are delivering. AWD would be a nice addition.

Secondly, I'm a little pissy about this "american classic" not being made in America. Shame on Chrysler for that.

Great video! I wish you would have asked about future colors for the SRT. I do believe in the 09' they will have black,red, and silver. I am waiting for a Dark Deep Blue color. I wonder what the future holds for the SRT?
