What a disappointment...cannot believe how high my hopes were.
It was going to be my fountain of youth --- recapturing the glory days I was too young to experience the first time around...
And they roll out this ugly @$$ 4 door box with a Ram truck front grille.
The designers of the New Charger and the New Goat should be taken out and systematically tortured...even worse are the delusional owners who really believe they have a real Charger...

I thought the new Charger looked mean looking. I liked it. :D
But I will be getting a Camaro instead.

The main screw up was putting 4 doors on a Charger, that just isn't right , I tell ya! However, Chrysler has made up this unkind skewered judgement IF they build the Challenger , teh sexty!

Wait, I meant Challenger.
Why the hell they have to name everything so close like that. :(

I agree the Challenger proto-type photos I've seen look great...
of course the short lived Super Bird was my all time favorite --- will you look at the tail on that thing...

If GM doesn't put the Camaro concept into production and Chrysler does build the Challenger , I would very seriously consider buying this car.

The Challenger looks really sweet, but I think it crosses the line of being too retro.

As soon as I get my jackpot from that big ole 'give-away' (ultra-secret sweeps), I'll surely be getting both the Camaro AND that awesome Challenger---How Kew-el would those two be??? Hey Mike, maybe we'll get lucky & they'll put both of 'em out there!!!:) Then we'll have the choice....
Oh, and back to the original post...Yuch! A Charger with 4 drs.---<in a Vin voice> "You tried to market a 4-dr. car, for a consumer like me!? What buyer pays $$$ for a car like this!? 'Friggin' INSULTING! I think the design team was a lil skiddish on this one...":rolleyes:

charger sucks, challenger looks good. i can't wait til the challenger and camaro hit production and the magazines have another classic pony car show down (shit include the GTO on that one even). 'Stang vs Challenger vs Camaro vs GTO. Kinda like the old days. I'll be expecting the Camaro and Challenger to duke it out for first (not sure what the HP/TQ of Chal is supposed to be) and the Mustang to take dead last.

=============================================
I thought I saw a magazine cover with a 425 HP Challenger Concept Car...
My guess is it will mirror the Charger with a basic 6, a Hemi and some sort of limited edition Super Challenger (the 425)...
I'm wanting that green color...
