Rep Power: 0 well they say that the imperial is to be above the 300 in price but from the way they talk about as being affordable luxury I wouldn't expect pricing to start higher than $35-40k

^^^ from what i see the imperial is nothing but a more suited up 300c, just like the 300c is to charger.
challenger is also derived from the charger.
damn everything is all the same. magnum-charger-300c-challenger-imperial.
it's actually a smart marketing move, produce 5 cars out of 1 chassis to save money. LOL.

#1 - congrats dodge, you can revert to your not-as-fvcking-ugly-as-todays-american-cars style like ford. wow. :rolls eyes:
#2 - dont try to mimic rolls royce if you are a sh!tty american car manufacturer. it makes you looks stupid.

Rep Power: 323 "Our future looks bleak, lets look to the past..."
or the exact opposite
"Ang hindi lumingon sa pinanggalingan
hindi makakarating sa paruruonan."
(You have to know where you're coming from to know where you're going)
Either way, they should stop the whole retro thing. Out of the two, I like the Challenger more. I think the Imperial is out of proportion some how. It might need to be longer, or lower... or I don't know, but it isn't straight up ugly.
Damn, they even copied the logo! That reminds me of the cheating kid that copied the name too!

Rep Power: 273 it is very different from other cars today, the jap and euro styles are a bit over used.
But I think only a very little group of people will like this 2 concept style, and this group of people will be 80 years old soon.

Rep Power: 0 the imperial is actually a remake of a car that goes back to the 30's if not older
1931 Chrysler CG Imperial Sedan
1961 Imperial
1993 Imperial
Note that chrysler has used a similiar badge to the bently one since the 30's

Rep Power: 232 Chrysler is usually good at keeping their concepts alive in the real versions. Not feeling the Imperial at all, but the Challenger is decent. As mentioned, it does look better than the Mustang, the Mustang really cheaped out in the interior, hopefully they dont do this to the Challenger.

Rep Power: 253 I can definitely see that challenger painted in orange with a confederate flag on top and a big '01' on the side of it
Been a long time since Ive seen a domestic car that I like

Rep Power: 0 ok one question. if dodge knew that they would be putting out this coupe, then why the fvck did they just hold up on the name and named this the "Dodge Charger" as it should have been. Then, the 4 dr dodge charger out now should have been the dodge challenger. IDIOTS.... duh

because you would have the same number of people complaining about a 4-door challenger as you do with the current charger
