The 'Challenger T/A' and 'Charger Daytona' are New Classic Muscle Cars
References: digitaltrends
The Dodge Challenger T/A and Charger Daytona were staples of the muscle car scene in the late 60s and early 70s, with aggressive and aerodynamic designs that were built for racing. Now, decades later, Dodge is going back to its muscular roots with its 2017 models of the Challenger T/A and Charger Daytona.
The new models, while staying true to their racing roots, are certainly toned down in comparison to the originals. For instance, the original Charger Daytona had a massive spoiler rising several feet from its tail, while the new Daytona's spoiler only rises a few inches. The new Challenger T/A also has a toned down version of the original's most notable feature: the hood scoop. The new T/A also comes stock with the classic side decal that came on the 70s Challenger.
