City Island Challenger
This Dodge Challenger R/T isn't the modern retro car. Oh no, this is the real thing, the Challenger from the early seventies! I found it while on City Island in the Bronx.
And since City Island is so unique, it's only appropriate that it's painted purple, a rather unique color for a car, especially a 2+2 sports coupe.
The original Challenger was in production from the 1970 to 1974 model years. (I don't know the exact year of this car. The standard engine for the R/T was the 383 Magnum V8, rated at 335 horsepower.
The first-generation Challenger is the only Challenger ever made in the United States. The second-generation "Challenger," actually a Mitsubishi Galant Lambda, was of course made in Japan, but the current third-generation retro model is made in . . . Canada.
