I still think that colour is way to glossy and light. Needs to be darker and more saturated...

Nonetheless its a very nice base to build something nutty off of...

Based off their current trand I'd that the next car might either be a Hyundai Genesis Coupe or maybe even a G8/Commodore. And just remember, you all wanted new Xmods, they gave you new Xmods.

Challengers are really big cars in person, this challenger Xmod should be bigger than the 05' and 10' Mustangs (wheel base wise i expect it to be like what... 102mm?). I think thats why radio shack missed (they didn't wanna extend past 98mm, which i'm gonna be more upset if the chassis isn't 98mm), I'm expecting this big but not too wide xmod to show up (they're definitely bigger than the 2010 Camaro's), but this side shot saddens me, its like... one of those cartoons where the car gets pancaked into a wall.

EDIT:
Just double checked the wheelbase to scale, the challenger should be atleast 102mm, its real wheel base on 28th scale is 105mm, thats just shy of like a MiniZ Minivan wheel base.

it looks too fake and unrealy, like, i love it, dont get me wrong, but the rear end and front end look like a toy from little tikes, lol, and the wheels are too plain, it looks fake, but im sure someone can change that, i need to see a modified one first, but thats my opinion.

Scale is wrong, but proportions are fine. Not as bad as the past cars from the evo series. The vette is an example

I think it looks nice but the color is way too off the real color. Nice though, may have to consider it, or atleast just for the body to do some work on
