A reader at the Allpar forums has gotten his hands on three interior shots of the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 that look to be official. We're supposed to see the new Challenger later this week, so this is a bit of an embargo break. From what we can see it looks to be a mixture of modern needs, automatic transmissions and a gigantic muscle car steering wheel we've been expecting. Oh, and seats with SRT8 logos! Look for many more official photos at the official release date sometime this week. galleryPost('challengerallparint', 3, 'Dodge Challenger Interior Shots'); galleryPost('08DodgeChallengerSRT8P', 3, 'Dodge Challenger SRT8 Production Shots'); [ Allpar ]

A reader over at CarScoop managed to catch a pair of production-looking 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 muscle cars hanging out at Roush, tuner of most things Ford. There are a couple of interesting things going on here. First, there don't appear to be any racing stripes, which could lead you to think these aren't SRT8's, though we think they area. Second, they're hanging out in front of Roush. galleryPost('08DodgeChallengerSRT8P', 3, '2008 Dodge Challenger Production'); Is this a couple of engineers with Challengers paying a visit to mock Roush and their Mustang entrant into the Muscle Car Wars ? Is Roush going to be tuning the next generation of Challengers? Did the drivers stop to take a leak? We don't know, but we're happy to speculate. [Oot via CarScoop ]

Thanks to the kind folks over at Autoweek -- and via the folks at the Line on the Inside over at Edmunds -- we can now add an official press shot of the 2008 Dodge Challenger to our growing collection from the broken embargo . The main difference between concept and reality is the loss of the LED rear lights. The tips on the twin exhausts also become single rectangles, there's some added detail in the bumper, the reverse lights are a nifty single, central unit and the rear spoiler is all black. You can compare and contrast the changes in the galleries below. Don't forget, we'll be bringing you live coverage from the Challenger's official unveiling from the Chicago Auto Show next week. galleryPost('08DodgeChallengerSRT8P', 6, '2008 Dodge Challenger'); galleryPost('DodgeChallenger', 6, 'Dodge Challenger Concept');

Yup, more evidence that the Muscle Car Wars are on! After we showed you that single shot of the new 2010 Ford Mustang interior and after we ran the two covers Car & Driver saw slip out way too early, we happened upon the above shot of the interior for the 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T on a few of the forums all about the new muscle car from the Ram-headed brand. So what do we see? Well -- we see a lot of standard instrument panels, radio units and HVAC controls. But check out that silver plastic around the instrument cluster. Most importantly, check out that leather-and-chrome wrapped shifter. Now that we like. Click the jump to see a larger shot and remember, we'll be bringing you coverage of the official reveal live in just two weeks at the Chicago Auto Show . galleryPost('2008ChallengerSRT8Snow', 6, 'Spy Photos - 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8');
