Irmscher has launched a special edition of the Dodge Journey Crossover in Germany to give the family car a complete makeover. The Journey SR is the product, and it receives a sporty look for the so called SUV, but it really still holds minivan features. It’s a family van that has been taken under the wing of the German tuning firm Irmscher, along with the cooperation of Dodge. The modifications are all cosmetic, so there are no performance gains for the stock 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine producing 140 horsepower. Included in the styling kit is a new front apron, roof spoiler, chrome tail pipes, and tinted rear windows.

Rarely do you get to see a street legal car run a single digit quarter mile time, but here is currently the world’s fastest Dodge Challenger. Built by the guys at MR NORMS GARAGE, the world famous tuners pushed the limits with this Challenger project. It was put together on the 2009 SRT8 Dodge Challenger platform, and this race car features too many upgrades to even list, but I’ll give you the run down of the basic improvements. From the factory the Challenger holds the 6.1-liter HEMI V8 engine, which received a ton of modifications to reach the numbers it now produces.

Here we have the 1:33 ACR limited edition Dodge Viper that has been on display at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show. What exactly does the 1:33 stand for? Well back in November, Chris Winkler was able to race the Viper ACR around the Laguna Seca track in just 1:33.944. It’s the fastest time ever accomplished by a production car, and only 33 of Dodge Vipers have been built since. Now what really makes this car unique is the 600 horsepower under the hood, and able to run from 0-202 mph 14 seconds faster than the 2009 model. Thus proving the Dodge Viper SRT10 V10 engine is not something to mess around with.

Mopar and HEMI car fans around the world will love this all new Competition Plus Dodge Challenger SRT8 model tuned by Hurst Performance. Even though the Dodge Challenger SRT8 falls in the heavy weight division as far as vehicle weight goes, this is the newest package of the Challenger Series one through five, and it meets all expectations. The package is priced at $18,495 and starts out with a Hurst shift kit, pearl white shift knob, plaque of authenticity, K&N high flow air filter, Magnaflow stainless steel performance exhaust, and an adjustable Eibach suspension kit. Performance numbers have yet been released from the car tuning and engine tuning modifications, but we’re expecting at least 572 hp and 528 lb-ft of torque from the Hurst Performance Dodge Challenger SRT8 since the series 4 was able to produce those numbers.
