The wide-body thing is no weirder than what we do.  Look at Pro Street musclecars. 

Cut the entire rear half of the car out to fit a set of tires, and it's "professional."  But if you cut out only the quarter skins & wheelhousings (on cars that virtually ALWAYS need those panels replaced anyway from rust), then it's an "amateur hackjob."

Well, I think it's pretty cool!
And if you know me at all, you know what a freak I am for concept vehicles!
This one pretty well takes the cake! A re-do of the Supercharger....in Challenger guise....

Hmm, that makes me wonder how long it'll be until we see a modern interpretation of the Diamante?

Wow, never saw one of those before.  I wonder how many they converted (no pun intended) given the low sales of that thing overall.

its sort of cool, style of rims is ok but could be an inch or two shorter and with bigger tires,


Why would you want anything else?  Just give me a Charger and I'll be happy.
