2009 Dodge Challenger Targa

A new car, the Dodge Challenger Targa, is a completely revolutionized competition car that has raced and competed in the mind-blowing Targa Newfoundland race this coming year. “Samantha” started life as a Mopar Challenger drag race package car. Many new features were borrowed from the Dodge Viper, but the most known was the snakeskin green paint.

To keep the front end down, a Mopar chin spoiler “Splats” was developed in a wind tunnel, which was added to the front end of the car. The Mopar hood is equipped with a scoop to make room for the 540-horsepower, 490 lb. ft. of torque, 392 HEMI V-8 Mopar crate motor.

The Tremec six-speed manual gearbox, the engine can maximize on performance and blast some steam to the rear wheels through a 2009 modified gear ration at the end. Excluding some exceptions, the Dodge Challenger Targa was built using only certain parts from the Mopar.
