    I heard a strong rumor that V6 R/Ts are going to be offered as part of the 2015 Challenger lineup.

    There are a lot of questions for 2015:

    Will the V6 engines have superchargers or turbos?
    Will the 6.2 Hellcat make its appearance?
    Will the 6.2 be put in a Barracuda model?
    Will the downsized Challenger chassis appear?

    2015 should be an interesting year!

    If they put V6's in R/Ts then it must have to due with trying to get the Challenger class to make its mpg meet government regs.

    With Mustang putting V6's and even turbo 4's in their GT's, it just makes sense.

    I'd consider a V6 R/T, but only if they offer it with a 6-speed manual. If Ford can figure out how to do it, why can't Dodge?
