New Challenger R/T Spotted In The Wild

Driving around up here in Michigan, I spotted what looked to be a white Mustang and a white Challenger racing up in my rearview. Since I’ve never seen a white Challenger up close I throttled back to let it catch up, and as it got closer I noticed that the rims were similar to those on the Daytona Charger, not the SRT. When it pulled up to the next light I saw the stripes and realized it was the R/T version, the middle-child Challenger with the 5.7L Hemi (as opposed to the SRT’s 6.1), priced at around $30K. The ‘09 R/T’s must be available to the public now, because the driver was just an ordinary guy listening to music—no sign of Dodge test computers or anything!
