I always liked the old ones... I like the new 300c...

When this hits the lot, I'm going to have to have a look.

Still... it is Daimler Chrysler so it's likely that it's crap. I won't hold my breath.

They shoulda saved the charger name for a two door in my opinion. Kinda like GM reviving the "malibu" nameplate for a boring 4-door a few years ago. I'm sure this chrysler will perform, but still, the charger is a two door muscle car to me.

I've heard about this. It's a reworked model of the Magnum and it's butt ugly.

I dunno, I kinda like the look of it.  Course it doesn't have ovals like a Gen III SHO, so it can't be that pretty.  How can a car be pretty without ovals!?

It has the wrong number of doors.

Might like a 2-door version.

It DOES look like the Ram truck.

Funny story, when Dodge was re-doin' the Ram, only like 1 in 4 people that they tested it on liked the look of it (I THINK 27%, but i 4get).  BUT because that was larger than their market share at the time (17% ish, again slept since then), they went w/ it.

And the rest is history.......

Dodge has taken that crossbar grill a bit too far. Would it kill them to make a different design for cars? Steve nailed it...smurfy.

It's a badly proportioned car with too many busy design details, I dont like it...
