I like it a lot more than the green one they built with the shortened ass end.  


Upon further review I don't like the side exit exhaust.   Should have kept stock quarters and rear exit tailpipes.   

[tan top]

 agreed looks better than the green one  

lot of work & time ! clever stuff !  but  neither for me  

[dreamcatcher]

So sad to take a beautiful classic and do that. But thats just my thoughts. Although I do like the engine choice. I hate the interior and the exhaust out the side is cheesy and cheep looking. Again my  nothing else intended

Interior   

[armor64]

of all the things i liked on first blush, the front bumper and valence for instance, the one part that stuck out as a hard no was the stripe stopping at the line, not going down to the exhaust insert section. no idea why that stuck out so hard...

[RallyeMike]

What terrible work! They filled in the seems where the rear quarter meets the rear valance, AND forgot to blackout the core support !

Big miss with the side exhaust.  The back of the car is begging for exhaust tips out the back.  If they continued the stripe to the bottom, and added a second narrow stripe forward would have looked a lot better in my opinion.

Interior   

Same here!   The exterior is sweet, but the interior, I agree with Stu.

I agree. The interior sucks. The dash and gauge cluster sucks. The side exit exhaust sucks. I do like the front valance. I also agree that it looks better than the green one. That one was really crappy. The steel looking wheels looked terrible on that car.

[Homerr]

Woof.

Why do so many that claim to love Chargers only want to change them into NOT Chargers?

[chargermick]

Hell no!! Side exhaust and interior are horrible. If they want to screw around with a classic car, do it with a Mustang or Camaro. They made lots of them.

[Daytona R/T SE]

I don't like it.

I don't like it at all.

[moparstuart]

I don't like it.

I don't like it at all.

Ok Sam I Am 

[JB400]

The front spoiler looks cool, but not digging the colour or the interior.  Maybe orange would make it look better

[6pkrtse]

I don't like it but at least they didn't screw it up as most of their builds. Guess their style is not my style.

[VegasCharger]

.....the one part that stuck out as a hard no was the stripe stopping at the line, not going down to the exhaust insert section.....

Yeah WTF? Why did they stop the stripe there? That stripe looks horrible anyway. The whole concept is hideous.

[DownZero]

What I don't get is why the 2 fuel tank fillers? Both functional?

[Mike DC]

   
Gas fillers on both sides was an original factory idea.  The bean counters scrapped it. 
 

[Fitz73Chrgr]

Surely a lot of time and money invested by some very talented people.

But, it just feels like it wants to be a Camaro.  I actually like the green one they did better.

[Mike DC]

  
It's the usual GM guy's approach to customizing a Charger.  They don't want a Mopar car, they just want the Charger body lines and Hemi engine.  They keep that stuff and convert the rest of the car to GM/aftermarket.

sooo....

Wanna revisit that whole "it's your car do what YOU want to do and to hell with what others think"?

ANY time a high dollar car is photographed or displayed, there will be opinions on it.
