Spied 2011 Charger

[Stew]

Dodge did better by the Charger than GM has done with some of it's fabled names. The Charger is big, RWD, V8, quicker and handles better than any previous Charger. Let's look at what GM did with the Nove, in the mid 80s it was a version of the Toota Corolla...... The Malibu, is now a 4 door FWD Family sedan offering 4 cylinder and V6 ngines.

The malibu has always been available as a sedan, so that name hasn't been tarnished


Same with Implala's


I may be the minority here, but I think if Chevy releases the G8 they should call it the Chevelle. Like the Charger, it's a midsized car with a big V8 that moves.

Just marketing. If they could sell more cars calling it the Charger, thats what they are going to do.

Sedans yes, FWD Camry competitors no......

So that you might understand what I'm talking about:

First generation Grand Prix:



Here's a first generation GTO:



Looks like a normal car, except it has a big engine stuffed into it. Sort of like the final generation of the GTO.

Good point. However in this case they took a good car and made it great, with the newer model they took a boring car and did nothing aside from performance of course.

Should have just called it the Magnum.

If that is it, then it is deeply disappointing to me. I get that it has four doors, that in and of itself is not the problem. THat style is hardly removed from the stale, current style. I was really hoping for something more like this, but hell Dodge can't find their way out of a paper bag these days.

I would so buy that if it came out.
