nice. i don't know about the color, but they did a pretty good job with the styling. looks good.

[attgig]

it looks great, though I fear that they're going ford's route of simply modernizing an old design. as long as they don't continue the trend, it'll be good.

That's what they should have done with the Charger.

Yeeeeee-haw! I hear they have a special edition that will come bundled with a mullet, a wifebeater t-shirt & a 6-pack of Milwaukee's Best...

Wow. As an owner of a classic 1966 Dodge Charger myself, I liked the new Charger, but it didn't really inspire any nostalgia in me, since it really didn't resemble either the first or second gen Chargers.

This looks like a Challenger is supposed to look. If they have an option for the "Plum Crazy" paint scheme, I just might have to declare that it is time for a midlife crises and go buy one...

I like it, but I am still hoping for a retro look Camaro to be produced. Chevy has no clue.

Supposedly 2007, but we'll see...

The front end of that Camaro is gruesome.

:agree: The rest seem nice, but the front end with that hood scoop, :puke:

The new Challenger is vaguely reminicent of the old Plymoth Roadrunner.

if you read the article re: the camaro you'll see it's just an artist's rendering of what they're guessing it will look like.

[Paymaster]

Sorry Grimm- definitely more of a challenger than a roadrunner.

That is pretty awesome. The big three made real winners back in the early 70's and they really only had to update the technology to sell those looks again today.
