Can't rely on Fiat for everything.

Very disappointed in Chrysler right now.

I think he's joking, but unfortunately, he's not wrong. Until the challenger is refreshed, even the 40k srt-8 is SLIGHTLY behind the other two in performance at the moment. That doesn't mean it's any worse of a car though. Personally, I think with the right wheels and drop, the challenger is one of the best looking cars on the market.

Those wheels are gorgeous. This might be the most attractive Challenger I've seen.

Needs a SERIOUS overhaul on the interior. The fact that it looks nearly identical to the charger still bugs me. Bring some excitement to that interior and it will start selling much better imho.

Indeed they are and resale value is in the toilet.

I still have hope in Chrysler, but the fact that they're still building this...



...when GM and Ford are building this and this...





...is just ridiculous. The Sebring and Avenger are also pathetic products. Chrysler needs to step up its game or GM and Ford and the rest of the market will walk all over them.

Good move getting rid of the stupid goats head on the hood of the Challenger. Made the whole front end look bad.

True. . . hopefully Fiat will start bringing in more of the European designs to the table. . . Ford and Chevy has stepped it up with beautifully designed cars. . . (Ford in particular) and Dodge has really just sat there. . .

I assume a lot of it had to do with the transfer from Cerbus (sp) to Fiat. . .

No, that's probably why they aren't putting it on vehicles...it's FAR too common.


Even Fiat has a logo on their cars. I just checked to see if maybe this is a carryover idea courtesy of Marchionne...guess not.

...two lines....

...interesting.

Really.....believe 98% of us here have done that. Doesn't make Fiat/Dodge/RAM/....any more capable. I feel like they are a pipe dream hanging on a thread of hope and it is about to break. I have 0 confidence in them.
