"Jessie" Well, when you're dream car is a 68 Charger, this is a let down. I guess I am biased. But I still think it's ugly. Under any model name, it still would not appeal to me. Mine's the '69... like the '68 too, but not the '70(don't care for the grille). I own a '69. That's why I said that it's somewhat of a disappointment that they used the Charger name on this particular car. |
The 73 had the bestest chrome horn along with massive space between
the grille and radiator. Has there ever been a car since with that
kinda "crush space in the front end? Not to mention the flares near
the wheel openings with REAL sheet metal that would take a Darlington
stripe and keep on getting it.
As the King sez while standing next to aforementione 73-75 model in
the commercial
SCHWEET!

I'm withholding full judgement until I see an actual car. And of course opinions differ. To me the car's not ugly, but from what I've seen so far, it's not deserving of the Charger name either. Of course, when they drop the 6.1L Hemi backed by the 6speed in it... I might change my opinion....  Move |

The Alltel racecar looks ugly. It must be the white color with the body style. The red and orange colors look good. It looks like a Ford or Chevy too. Clone cars suck. |

profile would you have something that looks a lot like a mustang? The front
nose carries the profile of the current stang and the ass end looks like a
retro stang.
