I agree, it defiantly looks like shit... oh I'm sorry, you meant that in a good way didn't you? Ah-well

I don't know, something's missing, but I can't figure out what it is...

My guess, it too will be over weight... and I think the G8 (a family car) will be just fine against a pony car.

Looks ok, but a few issues....

1. The headlights will never make production, covered/popup headlights are illegal in any country where sales matter.
2. Any rear view out of that would be worthless.

Heres the biggy..

Chrysler will never make a 2 door charger, thats what the challenger is.

PS. Why are we comparing a 2 door coupe to a 4 door sedan?

It looks like a Scion before makeup (and even those look like...stuff).
Sorry, that's just butt-ugly.


EDIT: is that an official Chysler-concept rendering?

I gotta hand it to you MusleMaster. You just jump in with both feet don't you.

I'm happy you're here and mixing it up. But you may be in for some serious crap if the Camaro is everything we think it will be.

I like the current charger over that. it looks like a bad attemp to modernize the classic charger. The worst part is the front end. Grill looks ok, but the lower part just confuses me. Why is it there? It looks tacked on rather than integrated. The sides need to roll under a bit more too. I can't describe what I don't like about the back end

Maybe, but it still looks better than the current charger.

Exactly. This is pie-in-the-sky for Mopar fans. The Challenger is a 2-door Charger, so, I certainly do not see this re-painted 1969 look-alike a realistic production car EVER.. Might as well start a new thread about the Pontiac TransAm coming back for Pete's sake!
