What if the new Charger was instead named the ?

[grouseman]

. . .  Fury?  I know it's a Plymouth name, which has since departed.  But they were big powerful 4-door cars.  And to my thinking it looks MUCH more in line with the old Chrysler 300s than their current namesake.

Monaco

[bull]

Any name of a car that had four doors would have been better. But it would still be ugly.

[Blown70]

Dodge Cornet?  Dodge Monaco, Polara, Fury IV(?), Make it longer and call it a Chysler IMPERIAL?

[DC_1]

Since they dusted of the name Magnum.......why don't they call it the Cordoba!!!.........and we can drag Ricaordo Montobon outta his wheel chair if he is still alive and do TV commercials

[bull]

They never made any four door Cordobas either but I don't think anyone would get riled like they did with the name Charger being used.

[TruckDriver]

I still think Magnum Sedan would of been best cause thats what it more less is

[andy74]

now they want to call the sebring replacement an ASPEN,i wish the un original bastards would come up with something new- fuck dcx

Actually, the Aspen is going to be the Chrysler version of the Durango.

The Avenger replacement is going to be called the...Avenger.  (Remember, the avenger was "replaced" by the stratus coupe.

Dodge Diplomat? I can certainly see how this could have evolved into what is called the 2006 Charger.

I don't if I should be laughing at that statement.

[MichaelRW]

I meant it to be funny but it could be a sad but true statement too.

I think i found the gene pool that car Evolved from....

Although, then they would have had to call the wagon...a wagon. And wagon's ain't as cool as they once were.


Okay, they weren't really ever cool.


I think they could have called it Magnacharger & nobody would have blinked twice at that name.

[andy74]

call it what you want,its still a bland styled 4 door boring sedan with a cheap ass interior,and german engineered crap.

sorry about the rant,dcx is really pissing me off today-Andy

[41husk]

Hmmmmm! this thread sounds a little familiar

[ChargerBill]

I think either Magnum Sedan or Creeder would fit fine...that's what most of us call it anyway. But, no name is going to make up for the fact that it's UGLY, and not just plain ugly - I mean, red headed step child fell out of an ugly tree and hit EVERY branch before landing face first in a pile of dog crap UGLY.

[Ghoste]

Or, better yet, since the performance is there, what if they left the name as Charger and restyled it into something attractive??

The guy next door to my friend has one sitting out back (looks almost exactaly like the Christine one), and he never drives it.  I thought it might be a good project for my friend and I.  Are they nice cars?  I don't really know much about them.

[grouseman]

The old 'finned' Plymouths and Chryslers - think BATMOBILE (the original TV George Barris one), except more powerful engine and fewer rockets. 

grouseman

[71Charger500]

I know what they look like, I was just wondering if they were nice cars.  Ive never been inside one and I don't know what the engines like.  The project was a 57 or 58.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

coronet wouldnt be bad eh?-MATT (or FURY)

[Spartan]

The Dodge Colt?? too small......valiant......... The Aries, there ya go.  Bring back the glory days of the K car

[Iceyone]

I say "Dodge Polara". Those were ugly cars too but could be had with any BB engine.

[ChgrSteve67]

Hummer
H2
H3

Should have called it a
M2

after magnum

Then only NASCAR would be crying that they still couldn't use the Charger name.

[Spartan]

If they want to use the Charger name, have them use a Charger car, you know, one with 2 doors :p

[twilt]

how about calling it the Dodge Feces. or perhaps the Dodge Edsel, or the Dodge Aztec, or the Dodge Yugo, or the Dodge Dung-ster,
or the Dodge Reliant mark II, or the Dodge Ghangsta, or the Dodge ...............

[Silver R/T]

a magnum sedan is what it is. Its not bad car but i wouldnt get one ever, too heavy, bad mpg, 4 dr, looks like most any other 4 door

Plymouth is dead.  Let it's names rest.  Dodge Fury doesn't sound right.


Now, POLARA, on the other hand, would fit.

Your Charger is just as heavy, and gets far worse mpg.  And for a fullsize V-8 car, it gets GREAT milage.

[Ghoste]

Your Charger is, however, incredibly better looking.

[hemihead]

I think they should have named it after the guy who supported this monstrousity, The Creeder.Or maybe The Rapper,The Ghetto, The Hood...
you get the idea.Funny how DCX claims nothing about the past but wants to use the names of the past as a marketing tool to sell this junk.
I guess it seems to be working because a bunch of yuppies seem to be following along with the rest of the sheep.

[69hemi]

Mercedes made a Panzer Wagon and I can see something in the grillwork that looks familiar

[Ghoste]

Maybe it should be called the Herder.

No arguement here.  Although, it's no 71.
