valiant1962 ◊ 2008-07-20 23:34	According to Wikipedia: "The Challenger name was revived in 1978 for a version of the early Mitsubishi Galant Lambda coupe, known overseas as the Mitsubishi Sapporo and sold through Dodge dealers as a captive import, identical except in color and minor trim to the Plymouth Sapporo. Although mechanically identical, the Dodge version emphasized sportiness, with bright colors and tape stripes, and the Plymouth on luxury with more subdued trim." So does this look like a sporty bright coloured Dodge or a subdued luxury Plymouth. I would guess the latter
