i like the look, the rear end is a bit funky, but the car is massive and looks powerful, wonder if they have it in 2 dr

Thats the original, now compare the pics you posted of the 2005 wanna be and tell me there is a resembelance!

CRISTIAN · 11 Jun 2005, 07:10 pm

why does there have to be a resemblance, its 40+ year later...the c6 doesn't look anything like a stingray or one of the 50's vettes and nobody *****es about that.

CRISTIAN · 11 Jun 2005, 07:11 pm

btw: I think the old and new are ugly anyways.

v_dub_ya · 11 Jun 2005, 07:16 pm

i dont see how they can put the "Charger" name-plate on a 4-door

farmer_joe620 · 11 Jun 2005, 08:07 pm

your right it doesnt need to resemble the old one but.....

the Charger is a 2 door coupe muscle car ........ not a four door sedan.

if a mustang or corvette had four doors they cant really be sports/muscle cars now can they.

if the 2005 Charger looked like this .......

...... then they could revive the name but the four door should be called a Newport or New Yorker.

thats my opinion.

TORQUE-DEMON · 12 Jun 2005, 04:24 am

Now thats more like it .... :thumpup:

Haakon · 12 Jun 2005, 05:06 am

I couldnt of said it any better.

PS that 2 door looks bad ass.

TORQUE-DEMON · 12 Jun 2005, 09:17 am

to me the 2 door chop looks better than the 05 GTO...

E-Rocko · 13 Jun 2005, 02:30 am

They should have just called it a Magnum sedan or something. They are pretty-much wasting the Charger nameplate.

I have seen a bunch of them over here. The car rental places must be renting them. It is a pretty sweet looking car in real life. I just have to ignore the name and stuff.
