It's a good concept bringing back the Charger name but I don't like the way it looks. The original looks 50 times better.

Normally I'd say dodge sux cause of my bad luck with my previous car even tho it was chrysler, I just don't trust em and think they're only worth 80-100k miles tops, so I definitly wouldn't buy it (unless I had another car or a few others), but these 2 pics look reallly nice, I'd possibly consider it if I had enough and planned to get rid of it before 60-70k miles.

My dad will be happy to hear that Dodge is re-introducing the Charger again. He has a 68 440 Magnum that he sold about 20 or so years ago now, kicking himself in the ***** every day because of it.

Key word "concept". The concept GTO looked pretty damn cool and look at what the final product is - a grand prix with a corvette engine. Don't expect the finished product to look much like those pictures.

Thsi is DiamlerChrysler we are talking about. They almost always follow through with these concepts and the production version almost always look like the concept.

Remember the Viper, Prowler, Pt Cruiser they looked right on with the concepts.

I think it's pretty ugly....mostly because of the front end...what they should do is take a front end from something that just drops down more, like from the magnum...chargers in the old days were known for that flat blunt front end, they should keep it like that...

I do like the rear end though...that looks pretty nice...

1. If anyone is famous for effing up great old names, it would be GM. Look at the turd they dropped on the name Impala.

2. Re quote #2: it's depressing, isn't it? The name GTO means a lot to a lot of people, and it also got crapped on. Once again proves my point about GM. And also re: Chrysler, the new Hemi engine is also not according to some old-school gearheads a true Hemi. Another resurrection of an old name just to sell stuff in the present.

its set for 06. When it comes out Im trading my car in and getting it. bet prices is going to be like 34k for one though.
estimation is the same as the released srt-8 for horsepower if not a little more.
I say 425hp.
but defently will be equal to the srt-8 which dodge has released figures on

You guys say the car isnt a sleek looking sports car and its ugly
jesus its a muscle car the original was hideous and the superbird was worse!!!!
they are fast as hell and they just rock!!

It's nice but they are trying to incorporate the Dodge cross-hair look into a classic. Just like the GTO is a good car but no dual exhaust??? Anyways, if they fixed that grill up it would be nice.
