maybe we can get by without the usual BS this time...  :shruggy:   :D

If you don't want the usual BS, don't post links about the car. It ain't rocket science.

Oh, and as far as the 2012 Charger it still has 4-doors....  :rotz:

nothing to about the whole four door thing, but the car as a whole is just plain ugly i dont think the redesign did it any favors espescially on the SRT version the black out on the bumper makes the grille look way to big.

How could we not have the usual bs, it's the usual car.

So the ugly grill isn't chrome any more? That helps. Now if you drive after dusk the car will look a whole lot better.

That's kind of an odd merging of shapes and lines on the hood. Is it finalized?

It's cool that even the top performance engine has the "active valve exhaust system" (which took me 4 times to copy because of the stupid pop-up ad that I kept rolling over).

No weight listed.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

IMHO the grille on the 2012 unit looks worse.  :rotz:

Trying too hard to be an audi...



I just read the opening statement in the 1966 Charger Service Manual Supplement. It talks about the new Charger as having sports car styling with luxury appointments.

That's more like an Audi R8 in my mind.

Chrysler needs to get the car back to it's roots!

that's old news.. Just now figgurin' that out huh?.. 'n all you care about is the grill,..
Wow.  :rotz:

aussiemuscle

the more subtle grille 'cross' is better, but the blacked out bumper to join top and bottom grille is just ':brickwall:'
taillamp design with 164 illuminating LEDs - that's a lot of leds!

i think you guys should get over the 4 door thing, it's not a pickup and it's not a challenger.

Brock Samson

 wrong choir here mate.. these guys are still in the '70s pretty much. Besides they can't afford it anyhow.  :nana:
