Have we seen these Charger pics before?

I'm not so sure that body sytle lends itself well to a "performance" car. Looks too upright a heavy to me.

Wasted opportunity.

Why is it so mad at me?

It looks like they took the stationwagon (Magnum) and changed the backend. I also still think they pulled more styling elements from the cuda/challenger than the charger. The front end looks more like a truck than a car.

I've owned:

69 Charger - red/white 318 cid
70 Charger - red/black 383 cid
69 Daytona - Yellow/black 440cid
72 Road Runner orange/black 340cid six pack
69 Duster (with a 440cid) - drag car.

Wow. Tough crowd. It looks a lot better than the other charger pictures I have seen. It follows design cues from the 300C, sort of like Caddilac is doing (and BMW did a long time ago - they all look at least somewhat alike).

I bet they sell tons of them. But I wouldn't buy one. No stick, . . .

Honestly...I kind of like it. I honestly could see myself buying one next year (even with a slushy) depending on how some other things go.

No standard, and it's a 4 door. Definately NOT a Charger
