The Dodge Challenger arguably features the most retro design of Detroit's three modern day muscle cars. Sure, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro exhibit cues that evoke their forebears, but neither slavishly recreates a whole car from yesteryear like the Challenger does. For 2010, Mopar has announced a new Performance Appearance Package for the Challenger that adds a host of bits and bobbles to the muscle car's otherwise attractively simple design.

The new Performance Appearance Package adds a body-color hood with a scoop (no word on whether it's functional, but we sure hope it is considering its size), a body-color "Go-Wing" rear spoiler and strobe stripe performance graphics. A separate package for the interior gets you a Mopar-branded T-handle shifter, bright pedal kit (for automatic-equipped models only), bright door-sill guards, premium carpet floor mats and a vehicle cover. We noticed Mopar's use of the adjective "bright" when describing metal parts of the Performance Appearance Package, and after examining the pics can only guess that this means a shiny, chrome-like material was used.

The price for the exterior package is $1,995 and the interior package will cost you $945 if you're ordering an automatic Challenger and $780 for one with a manual. Keep in mind, none of these accessories will help your Challenger keep up with a Mustang or Camaro. That's why it's called the Performance Appearance Package: it gives your Challenger the appearance of performance without actually adding any.
