this photo came out during yesterdays press event. I was hoping they could do better than digging up a 1990s concept car.

Re: 2012 Dodge Charger: First Look

That was one of my all time favorite concept cars. They should have made it back in '02(?) when it came out.

Re: 2012 Dodge Charger: First Look

Here's hoping for a sleeker Charger. I never quite liked the lines of the current one. Of all the original LX cars I think the 300 came out the best.

The old concept came to my mind almost immediately. I don't like it.

Odd, looks like a bad rip off of the Corvette.

Re: 2012 Dodge Charger: First Look

I very much liked that concept when I first saw it.


B U T ...............I first saw it 10 YEARS AGO.

I don't know if it's such a good idea to resurrect something after so much time has passed.

Re: 2012 Dodge Charger: First Look

So what if the concept is older. It's still relevant...probably more so now than it was then. Besides, I think it's the C6 that ripped the design from Dodge. Take a look again.

Looks great to me!

I feel that the worse thing to happen to Chrysler was being taken over by Mercedes as I feel that they ruined much of Chrysler's products.
