This article tallies up the most notorious starring roles and background roles based on the IMCDB's star rankings and crowns a king based on the weightings between common appearances and star/hero/villain roles - and of course the Charger comes out on top.

Was there a doubt?

Yay us.

Shall we petition for a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

Which car do we use? "Bullit", "General lee" "generic black charger from drive angry" 

[JB400]

To save an unnecessary argument, why not just award it to the nameplate in general instead of picking just one character role?  If you look, that is how most actors and actresses are awarded theirs.

Tire tracks would be just fine.

A tire track ceremony, that would be awesome!

Perhaps its because they are the most disposeable?......................

But I still wish I had one!

Yeah, thats cool, but.... Chrysler won't endorse a reproduction body of the Charger despite its #1 position in this poll. By contrast, 2nd gen Camaros can still be picked up in great condition for under $5k and you can buy brand new Mustangs for a variety of year choices.

Still is tough being a Mopar dude at times.

People are drawn to the shape of a 2nd gen charger.
