There’s absolutely no question that the Chicago Auto Show’s press days were overpowered by one car and one car alone — the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. Senior editor Joe Wiesenfelder aptly summed up why it won the nod as best in show: “Among all the downsizing and fuel-efficiency news of the day — necessary as it may be — it’s nice to have something at the show to get the blood boiling.”

Amen. If you’ve already hit the Chicago Auto Show, let us know what impressed you most.
